In Up In The Air, based on the book by Walter Kim, George Clooney plays Ryan Bingham, a man who travels around the country to terminate corporate employees. On occasion he delivers motivational speeches about the virtue of a relationship-free life, he relishes the comfort of being anonymous during his perpetual travels, he does not have a personal life and he numbs himself with sex, booze and drugs. But when his company chooses to ground him and keep him at the corporate headquarters in Omaha, Nebraska it could mean the end of the life-style that he has become accustomed to and started to rely on causing him to feel the fear of everything slipping away, a feeling that he leaves people with on a daily basis. According to director Reitman, "The movie is about the examination of a philosophy, what if you decided to live hub to hub, with nothing, with nobody?"
