Lunatics: A Love Story Movie Review 1992

Hank (Raimi) is an ex-mental patient poet suffering from hallucinations and afraid to leave his Los Angeles apartment. For companionship he dials a party-line until, one day, he misdials and insteads gets the number of a local pay telephone, which is answered by a naive woman dumped by her boyfriend. When Nancy (Foreman) decides to visit Hank you learn she's as crazy as he is--so it only makes sense they would fall in love. A well-acted fable of how love fragilely connects even the most unlikely of people.
