Hudson Milbank is a successful Hollywood screenwriter who suddenly, strangely, finds himself without any emotional feelings. He tries doctor after doctor and shrink after shrink, but nothing works. The Golf Channel, lesbian exercise classes, and a dizzying variety of pills get him through the day but dont quite solve his problem. His writing partner tries everything to get him back to normal, but its not until Hudson meets Sara that he finds a real motivation to get better and actually start feeling again. From the writer of Deuce Bigalow comes NUMB, a romantic comedy following an unusual man looking for strange love.
Hudson Milbank is one half of a Los Angeles-based screenwriting team. Actually, his partner Tom is the write; Hudson is the pitchman, which requires him to be on his toes mentally during meetings. After smoking his first joint ever, Hudson begins to feel detached from himself, almost like he is looking at what is happening to himself without feeling anything or being able to control what he is doing. He learns that the technical term for his disorder is depersonalization. Associated with his disorder is anxiety, insomnia, and depression. Specific to him, he believes that even mentioning the words "death" or "dying" will result in the death of his father, which would be traumatic as he has dysfunctional relationships with his mother and older brother. As Hudson goes to a series of doctors and therapists in the hope that one or more of them can cure him (some treatments end with disastrous results), Hudson tries to continue with his life, which generally consists of endless hours of watching the longest programming he can find on television, such as the golf channel or the longest movies ever made. At a pitch meeting he meets Sara Harrison, the executive assistant at a movie development company. The two begin a relationship that continues even after Sara learns of Hudsons disorder; she states shes in this relationship because you cant control with whom you fall in love. But will Sara be able to tolerate the many issues in Hudsons life, especially as Hudson comes to the conclusion that he may never be normal?
