The movie was Punch-Drunk Love, starring Adam Sandler. You can see a special acknowledgment to the man that we know as Pudding Guy in the closing credits.

Pudding Guy and I worked in the same field but for different universities back then, so he "happened to get invited" to visit my department in Texas to exchange ideas (a peer visit). He is a very smart, personable guy, and his knowledge impressed us all.
