What Happened to DNA ?

This is a very entertaining film concerning seniors graduating from high school and then planning to go on to college. The film takes place in a small town where everybody knows everybody and any gossip is spread around immediately. Soleil Moon Frye, (Emily DeCapprio) plays a young girl who falls in love with Greg Dunleavy,(Mark Kassen) and wants him to marry her before he goes to college and Greg at the same time is going out with Nicole Kass,(Ari Meyers) and having a ball playing the field with these two girls. Tess Harper,(Tina DeCapprio) gave an outstanding performance as the mother to Emily and was very close to her daughter and were considered rather poor compared to some of the other gals and guys she associated with in cheer-leading or sports. This film does have a rather sad ending and is nothing that I had intended to expect.
