Inside Out is a 1986 American drama film about an agoraphobe that was directed by Robert Taicher[1] and written by him and Kevin Bartelme and starred Elliott Gould, Howard Hesseman and Jennifer Tilly.
In the meantime, Morgan's stock market portfolio evaporates in a bad market, his business partner Leo Gross is embezzling money entrusted to their business for himself, and Morgan is gambling (and losing) on professional football games in larger and larger amounts.
As friends visit, Morgan is revealed to be an agoraphobe, and cannot seem to find the courage to leave his apartment even when doing so may save him financially or personally.
Morgan's answering machine is as much the center of his world as his television, used to carefully screen calls and people.
Friends make efforts to help Jimmy and even to get him to leave the house, but begin to drift away the deeper he digs himself into his apartment.
