“One of the more thought-provoking sports movies I’ve seen” - Roger Ebert
Comedy legend Patton Oswalt (YOUNG ADULT, I LOVE MY DAD) found his first starring role in BIG FAN, a chilling, low-key, darkly funny film from the writer of Aronofsky’s THE WRESTLER. In the world of football, there are fans and then there's Paul (Oswalt). He lives for game days when he can cheer on his beloved New York Giants. But when a chance encounter with his favorite player goes seriously awry, this devoted fan finds himself at odds with his family, the media and the authorities, putting his allegiance to his team to the ultimate test.
