I'll Do Anything

“She's the most maddening female he's ever met. And she's only six years old.”

Why does Matt Hobbs (Nick Nolte), a talented actor who never quite breaks through, suddenly have a six-year-old daughter in his apartment? His strange ex-wife Beth has left Jeannie (Whittni Wright) with him, and Jeannie is used to getting her own way. James L. Brooks sets the father's shot at a career, and a new romance with production assistant Cathy Breslow (Joely Richardson), against a child who needs him now.
