Description
With nowhere else to turn, out of work, out of money, dealing with a failed third marriage, 50 year-old Lenny Rose, prays for relief. He pleads with God for a change in fortune. He begs for a bit of good luck. That's when he gets hit by an eighteen wheeled, tractor-trailer truck putting him in a deep and persistent coma. It's the best thing that could've happened to him. Money, a hit TV show, and most improbably, true love all come to Lenny while he lies motionless in his hospital bed.
