The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

A daydreaming pulp-fiction writer, constrained by an overprotective mother and demanding people around him, imagines himself as a daring hero. After meeting a mysterious woman carrying a little black book tied to hidden Dutch crown jewels, he is drawn into a confusing conspiracy where fact and fantasy become difficult to separate.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like energetic Golden Age comedies, broad fantasy, and colorful period adventures such as Topper; Not for you if you prefer tightly paced stories or understated humor.
