Thumbsucker is a 2005 American comedy-drama film directed by Mike Mills adapted from the Walter Kirn novel of the same name. The movie focuses on teenager Justin Cobb (Lou Pucci) and how he copes with his thumb sucking problem, and his experiments with hypnosis, sex and drugs.
Justin Cobb (Lou Taylor Pucci) is a shy 17-year-old in a family of four in suburban Oregon. He has a persistent thumb sucking habit that his father (Vincent D'Onofrio) disapproves of, and that has previously led to major orthodontic repair. He addresses his parents by their first names (Mike and Audrey) due to his father's insecurity of aging. His mother (Tilda Swinton), a registered nurse, begins an idle fascination with actor Matt Schramm (Benjamin Bratt), entering a contest to win a date with the star.
