They couldn't like each other less or need each other more.

"One of the year's hottest surprises" (Rex Reed), this "feel-good drama" (San Francisco Chronicle) from writer/director Joel Shumacher (A Time To Kill) combines the acting talents of two-time Oscar winner Robert DeNiro (Analyze This) and Philip Seymour Hoffman (The Talented Mr. Ripley)! Flawless lives up to its name with a story line that's full of compassion, tolerance and most of all…"heart" (San Francisco Chronicle)!

Walter Koontz (DeNiro) -- once a hero cop, now a security guard -- lives in a rundown Hell's kitchen tenement. One fateful night, after hearing the cries of a neighbor in trouble, his attempt to help turns into a nightmare when he suffers a stroke. Paralyzed on his right side and unable to speak clearly, Koontz, on the advice of his doctor, seeks voice lessons. But with winter holding him hostage to his apartment, he has no choice but to seek help from a musically inclined neighbor whom he vehemently dislikes…an outspoken guy named Rusty (Hoffman)!
