Synopsis
A Thousand Words (2012) is a fantasy comedy you can watch online on iFILM, starring Eddie Murphy as a fast-talking literary agent who suddenly has very little left to say. Directed by Brian Robbins, with Kerry Washington and Cliff Curtis co-starring.
Jack McCall talks his way through life — closes deals, dodges hard conversations, tells people what they want to hear. After a slick pitch to spiritual guru Dr. Sinja, a Bodhi tree appears in his backyard. Every word Jack speaks drops a leaf. When the last leaf falls, he's done. The man who has never shut up must figure out how to get through a day — and fix his marriage, his career and his relationship with his mother — without opening his mouth.
Written by Steve Koren, the film sat unreleased for years before DreamWorks found a date for it. Murphy leans into the silence in a way that actually works: the physical comedy is looser and funnier than his dialogue scenes usually are. It's a light watch with a straightforward emotional payoff.
