IMDb profile

Little Noises is a 1991 drama/comedy film. It follows the life of an awkward and unsuccessful writer (Glover) who dates a playwright (O'Neal) and shares a room with an unsuccessful actor (Schub). He steals the poems of a deaf-mute (Hutton). After claiming them as his own, he shows them to a literary agent (Mayall) who is so impressed that he immediately advances the writer hundreds of dollars.

Jane Spencer, fresh out of UT, directs her first movie, aiming for a comedy. It is in fact billed as "a little comedy in the Big Apple".
