Cosi (1996)
Sein Studium hat er abgebrochen, mit Psychiatrie-Patienten noch nie gearbeitet und als Regisseur gerade mal an der Schule ein paar Stücke einstudiert. Dennoch hat sich Lewis in den Kopf gesetzt, das schier Unmögliche zu schaffen: Er will in einer Klinik für psychisch Gestörte die Oper "Così fan tutte" aufführen. Zu seinen Schauspielern gehören der manisch-depressive Roy, Henry, ein riesengroßer Kerl, der so ängstlich ist, wie ein Kleinkind, Julie, die eigentlich in eine Drogentherapie gehört und Cherry, die Lewis ständig mit Sandwiches füttert. Keiner von ihnen kann schauspielern, singen, geschweige denn Italienisch. Aber ist das ein Grund, es nicht wenigstens zu versuchen?
