The Humbling -

Directed by Barry Levinson, the film is a dark comedy-drama that blends reality with Axler's delusions.

The title primarily refers to the 2009 novel by Philip Roth and its 2014 film adaptation starring Al Pacino. Both versions center on the existential crisis of Simon Axler, a once-celebrated stage actor who suddenly loses his talent and enters a downward spiral of depression and self-doubt. 2014 Film Adaptation
