The Story: When New York newsman Campbell Babbett (Steve Coogan) is sent from the city to the sticks to cover a local hero celebration, he becomes a hero of sorts after he takes interest in a group of discontented, confused high school students. But soon, Campbell gets entangled in a web of lies and misplaced sexual desire. Helmer Jonathan Glatzer's wry feature debut set in the 1980s co-stars Molly Shannon, Hilary Duff, Olivia Thirlby and Josh Peck. From Netflix.com
I've never been very good at explaining this movie. It's like the Breakfast Club meets Empire Records meets Imaginary Heroes meets St. Elmo's fire, and yet it's like nothing I've really seen before.
Also, I'm a Hilary Duff fan. There I admit it. She's a total nut in this film. LOVE IT!
