Rated PG

The course of true love is never smooth, but for one particular high-school teen it's downright rocky. The girl of his dreams has just ditched him for a conceited ski jock. What's a guy to do? John Cusack (Identity) stars in this hilarious farce as the likable Lane Myer who just can't get anything to go right--he loses drag races to a Chinese Howard Cosell impersonator, the paper boy is stalking him for two dollars and he's forced to deal with his slovenly schoolmate Ricky ("Sorry I blew up your mom's face, Ricky"). Even his mother's experimental dinners get up and walk off the plate! It's enough to make a guy consider ending it all...unless he can use his talent on the slopes to be a winner once and for all! David Ogden Stiers, Curtis Armstrong (in perhaps his finest performance as Lane's buddy Charles De Mar), Diane Franklin and Amanda Wyss co-star in this 1985 comedy classic.
