The story takes place on the eve of Halloween in 1938. Francis (played by Jack Nicholson) was once a legendary baseball player, but after a tragic incident, he fell into despair and could only numb himself with alcohol, ultimately becoming an alcoholic. 22 years ago, during the peak of Francis's career, his anger grew along with his fame. Eventually, his uncontrollable temper led to disaster; not only did he accidentally kill someone, but his child also tragically lost their life in a catastrophe. Now, destitute, Francis returns to his hometown with his girlfriend, a place he can never let go of. He hopes to make a comeback here and find new meaning in life.
