Irrational Man

Irrational Man

Anguished philosophy professor Abe Lucas arrives at the New England college campus of Braylin in the midst of an existential crisis. Sitting in a diner one afternoon with his student Jill, Abe overhears a tearful conversation in an adjacent booth about an unfeeling judge, who is needlessly wrenching apart happy families. Abe is enraged and resolves to reinvigorate his humdrum existence by taking the life of Judge Spangler.
