Adapted by William Goldman from the Stephen King novel 
Directed by Warren Sherrill

Paul Sheldon is “rescued” from a horrible car crash by his number one fan, nurse Annie Wilkes. Annie takes the famous romance novelist prisoner and insists on treating him at her rural Colorado home. Then she reads his latest manuscript, and discovers he’s killed off her favorite character, Misery Chastain! When Annie forces Paul to do some major rewrites, Paul must write as though his life depends on it. Because it does. A chilling edge-of-your-seat thriller that balances dark comedy with psychodrama.
