Mickey Prohaska (Greg Kinnear)is a small-time insurance agent looking for a way to jump-start his business,reunite with his estranged wife (Lea Thompson) and escape the frigid Wisconsinweather. This self-proclaimed master of spin believes that salesmanship is aboutselling a story -- all he needs is a **er willing to buy it. He hits pay dirtwith a lonely retired farmer (Alan Arkin) who is sitting on something muchbigger than an insurance commission. But Mickey's attempt to con the old manspins out of control when a nosy, unstable locksmith (Billy Crudup) with avolatile temper dramatically ups the stakes, trapping him in a madcap spiral ofdanger, deceit and double-crossing. Blending dark comedy and deliriousMidwestern noir, Thin Icereaches a breaking point that no one -- least of allMickey Prohaska -- could ever see coming.8 [( X d, `) X
