Here is the plot description for “The Extra Man”:

“The Extra Man” follows Louis Ives (Paul Dano): a lonely dreamer who fancies himself the hero of an F. Scott Fitzgerald novel. When a deeply embarrassing incident forces him to leave his job at an exclusive Princeton prep school, Louis heads to New York City to make a fresh start. He quickly finds a 9-to-5 job at an environmental magazine where he encounters an entrancing, green-obsessed co-worker named Mary (Katie Holmes).

But what really sparks Louis’ imagination is his new home life. He rents a room in the ramshackle apartment of Henry Harrison (Kevin Kline): a penniless, wildly eccentric and brilliant playwright.

When Henry’s not dancing alone to obscure music, he’s performing ­with great panache the duties of an “extra man”: a social escort for the wealthy widows of Manhattan high society. The two men develop a volatile mentorship that leads to a series of urban adventures. They encounter everything from a leaping lion to a wildly jealous hirsute neighbor to drunken non-agenarians to a shady Swiss hunchback.

Along his exploration into the heart of New York City, Henry and Louis have unexpected influences on each other and form a memorable bond that bridges their differences. “The Extra Man” is a sophisticated and moving comedy from filmmakers Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini.
