Delirious is a dark comedy-drama film that explores the themes of celebrity culture, fame, friendship, and betrayal. The movie follows the journey of Les (played by Steve Buscemi), a paparazzo who dreams of becoming a respected photographer. He spends his days chasing after famous people and trying to capture their most intimate moments for the tabloids.
One day, Les meets Toby (played by Michael Pitt), a homeless young man who is living on the streets of New York City. Toby is a naive and charming guy who dreams of making it big as an actor. The two men strike up an unlikely friendship, and Les takes Toby under his wing, showing him the ins and outs of the celebrity world.
As Toby starts to gain some success and catches the eye of K'Harma Leeds (played by Alison Lohman), a popular pop star, Les becomes increasingly jealous and bitter. He resents the fact that Toby is getting attention and success while he is still struggling to make a name for himself.
As the plot unfolds, Les's jealousy turns into a dangerous obsession, and he sets out to sabotage Toby's career and relationship with K'Harma. He becomes more and more delusional, and his actions have disastrous consequences.
The film is an exploration of the dark side of celebrity culture and the price people are willing to pay for fame. It also highlights the complex nature of relationships and the dangers of envy and jealousy. The performances of the lead actors are exceptional, and the film is a gripping and thought-provoking commentary on the celebrity-obsessed society we live in today.
