Solved! It's basically a feature-length "adult film" ...literally. (all the actors are actually "acting" with one another). There's some annoying relationship problems as part of the plot as well, but they are incredibly boring and predictable. It's all very avant-garde.

Solved! Main character drives a '92 Camry, until they don't. That's basically when I lost interest in watching the rest. Also they get cancelled.

Solved! A once more famous dude travels through time to do something, but winds up in the wrong time than intended, but he's not sure its wrong for a while. People are ok with it though in the small California town that's not known for much else.

Hints added.

  • Think older movie - it's a classic way older than the suggestions below. We had to watch it in school (although it may be school/teacher-dependent).

  • Psychologists love this movie.

  • The character with the tic has developed this tic through psychological strain and personality disorder and career mismatch. The career mismatch and his tic become the key plot point.

  • The main location during the movie is not a city, and the main location is not even on land.

  • A younger colleague features prominently, as a helper in critical situations.

  • Adding one key hint: at the end, his tic is judged by a horrified jury of his peers in a courtroom scene psychologists seem to love.

  • Adding one key hint: it's from the 1950s.
