Bill loves Jane and she loves him, but in this small town, many are jealous of Bill, especially the volunteer firefighters. Bill calls them cowards, puts out fires by himself, and doesn't cooperate with small-town church values. The local pastor and others conspire against him, and soon Bill has suffered the loss of his arms and other injuries. His old friend Paul stitches him back together, giving him tin arms, then a tin body. Soon, Bill still has his heart, but the rest of him is tin. Then, Bill's heart-less body comes back to semi life, zombie-like. Jane takes this meat
puppet into her home and into her arms. Bill is deeply hurt. He seeks Jane's love. Is there hope?

The acting isn't great, but it has an entertaining plot and is very enjoyable.

But good job though.

If Wes Anderson fucked Wes Anderson and they had twins and those twins fucked and had a little Wes Anderson this would be the movie that little retarded Wes Anderson would make.
