Trivia
Kyle MacLachlan enjoyed working in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, where the film was shot. In a Toronto Sun interview, he stated: "It was beautiful. It reminded me, kind of weirdly enough, a little bit of my hometown which is in eastern Washington. The neighborhoods. And the style of the houses. The sounds were similar and the smells of the asphalt and the vegetation. Even down to the color of the bricks of the homes. I was like, 'Wow, this is sort of like Yakima.'"

Quotes
Natasha Kohl: I don't fuck him, Ballas, just give him the occasional blow job. Which I guess we have in common, don't we, big bro?

Not Just Another Coming of Age Film...

... but one that shifts the perspective sufficiently to make it a refreshing take on an often overcooked theme. It's also believable and doesn't rely on melodramatic effect to present adolescence and the wide range of maturities young adults portray. Some excellent acting by some talented future stars, as well as those more established, makes this film well worth your time and attention.
