The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

Walter Mitty is the manager of the negative assets department at Life magazine in New York. He lives alone, and his days at the office are monotonous and uninspiring. He often gets lost in daydreams in which he imagines himself starring in action-packed scenes, and every so often these fantasies pull him away from a reality that is almost sad. Among his coworkers is Cheryl Melhoff, for whom he has a secret crush. When he tries to approach her through a dating platform, a customer service agent explains that his profile is incomplete, with the sections about life experiences left blank. Ben Stiller both directs and stars in the film as Walter, and Kristen Wiig rounds out the cast as the female lead.
