Eliot:
[looking at his backseat] There's blood. Do you still have your period?
Vivian: No, I would've warned you.
Eliot: What just happened here?
Vivian: ...Let's just get dressed.
Eliot: Are you telling me I popped your cherry?
Vivian: I didn't want to make a big deal out of it. I just wanted to get it over with. No ceremony.
Eliot: That puts a lot of pressure on a man. Did you think of that? Did you think of me? You know what this makes me? A criminal. On 2 counts! Devirginizing a minor.

One of my favorite movies made in the 90's. Excellent Cast, Direction, and Writing. Natasha Leone and Alan Arkin stand out in this one. Offbeat and alot of fun. Check it out. I would be willing to bet you get a few laughs out of this film, "I did". Better than 95% of the garbage that comes out of Hollywood these days.
