Yes, the answer is "Klute." Jane Fonda is the Oscar-winning actress (with Oscar-winning dad, Henry). Det. Klute was played by Donald Sutherland (father of Kiefer).

OK. She's all sparked up.
An intelligent, soft spoken young man tries to earn a living as a circus performer when he is discovered by elitist socialites and becomes quite famous for his writing prose and crafting miniature models. In later life, he attended the theater and vacationed in the countryside of Europe.

Bueller, Bueller, Bueller, Bueller. Nothin' to do wit dis movie.
I may have gotten too cryptic then. It's a biography about someone who lived in the early 20 century whose life takes on a purpose when he is discovered by a caring person who rescues him from the life he had as a circus performer.
This fairly-recent action movie was based on a character from other entertainment media. Clever references to the earlier TV show abounded, although no actual footage from the TV show was used.
It's not the one I had in mind, though I confess that it fits the bill almost perfectly.
The clues I was referring to include scenes on a TV from "The Courtship of Eddie's Father" and a character saying(in Portuguese) "Don't make me hungry. You wouldn't like me when I'm hungry."
Rather than show "Incredible Hulk" TV clips, they tipped the hat to Bill Bixby with Banner watching "Courtship" (on Brazilian TV). His Portuguese isn't too good, so when he tries to say the famous line from the TV show, "angry" becomes "hungry."

Why didn't you say that 2 days ago Mr. Wolf? Your right Rottie, They are pretty good. Makes it tough on me to get my 2 cents in.

I was way off going with "The Terminal", except that it didn't have any articles of clothing in the title. I assume WordWolf is correct, but I'm not familiar with it. But that's not unusual.

Stallone. Also well-known for reprising his Rocky role. I can't see him in Eddie Murphy's role in BHC, though... George

Ah, is this a before and after? Or is it an actual synopsis of a single movie?
(If it's the latter, excuse me, I didn't understand.)

Sorry, mis-spelled that. It is a brief synopsis of a movie. Let me spark it up a little bit WW. I thought it seemed vague too.

There's more than 1 movie.
Is the one "the Incredible Hulk"?

Yes.

This remake did well enough in the box office, but I can't help think part of
that was due to the advertising. One supporting character was made to look like
a main character with most of the screen-time.
This is one of the appearances in media of the "coroner with an iron stomach" type of thing. When one character
answers the phone, he's at work in a crematorium. He puts down his sandwich- on the corpse- to answer
the phone.
