In addition, it features a vast number of appearances by well-known performers, who took an interest in the project, taking union minimum pay. In the story, Jake (Eric Stoltz) has grown up in a wonderfully neurotic household. It is just as well that he has developed a fondness for drama, as this material is excellent fodder for his playwriting. He has spent a lot of time collaborating with his friend Chris (Ralph Macchio) writing plays, and eventually is given his chance to prove his stuff in New York City. There, he discovers that Chris wants to be more than just a friend, and an important stage actress (Kathleen Turner) also has the hots for him. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Com
Though too imitative of Woody Allen's Annie Hall, Dan Algrant's feature debut is nonetheless well acted by Eric Stoltz, Mary-Louise Parker, Tony Curtis, and Kathleen Turner.
-
Brent Simon, Entertainment Today
A movie of somewhat indulgent introspection, a confection of twentysomething ambivalence.
-
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality and Practice
A fresh and funny romantic comedy.
