Directed by Blake Robison

He might be a fiction writer, but the scenario that greets novelist Paul when he wakes up after a car accident is nothing like he could have imagined. As luck would have it, he's under the care of his 'Number One Fan', Annie and she's just thrilled to nurse him back to health. But is his recuperation the real reason for her happiness? Or does she have something far more sinister in mind?

What is Misery about?

One of Stephen King's most psychological and suspenseful tales, Misery begins as a portrait of an author and fanatic, but as Paul is faced with former nurse and captor Annie's increasingly insane and physically abusive behaviour, it becomes more of a tense battle for survival. How will he escape and what's more, will he break out in time?
