Movie Description
At 7'7", Max (Gheorghe Muresan) is considered a freak in his native Romania and is banished to a monastery. When he saves the life of Sammy Kamin (Billy Crystal), a down-on-his-luck talent agent, a whole world of opportunity opens up for him. The two embark on an adventure that provides closure for Max with a woman he has obsessed over for years and helps Sammy put his life in perspective and regain what's important to him. Michael Lehmann (HEATHERS, THE TRUTH ABOUT CATS AND DOGS) directs this surprisingly bittersweet tale.

Credits
Producer:Billy Crystal
Cast:Gheorghe Muresan, Joanna Pacula

Notes
Theatrical release date: April 10, 1998.

This film includes brief appearances by Lorna Luft, Doris Roberts, and Estelle Harris.

The seeds of the story started with Crystal when he worked with the 7'5" wrestler Andre the Giant on THE PRINCESS BRIDE.

Crystal noticed the 7''7" Muresan while watching the NBA draft on television, tracked him down, and convinced him to do the film.

The name of Max's love interest was changed from Angelica to Lillianna--Muresan's wife's name--because it made Muresan more comfortable.

Editorial Reviews
"...Crystal's wisenheimer Long Island charm wears well....[Muresan] is suprisingly endearing..."
Everitt

"...[Muresan has] an ingratiating innocence..."
Wloszczyna

"...The actors are easygoing and likable....[Crystal's] warmth and wisecracks are more than welcome..."
New York Times - Janet Maslin (04/10/1998)

"...A funny, good-natured tale....[Crystal] is a seasoned pro when it comes to this kind of material, and he serves it expertly..."
Los Angeles Times - David Kronke (04/10/1998)
