Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Mr. Win Berry Berry tries to run rural small-town Dairy's high-school and his sassy family. The troubles of his sons--Frank, a gay bullied by team-idolized football captain Chip Dove, horny athlete John, and 'Egg', so called after his growth-stopping syndrome--and daughters inspire him to try running a hotel instead. After more problems, they accept a shady offer to run a Viennese hotel--which proves to be a run-down rat-hole and terrorist layer, where disaster lays in waiting. Offspring talents also open positive avenues, which also prove to be mixed blessings. Written by KGF Vissers |

Did You Know?
| Trivia | Jodie Foster later said that with this movie began the lowest point of her career, as she turned down worthy roles in Splash (1984), The Terminator (1984) and The Breakfast Club (1985). Her career wouldn't recover until Kim Basinger turned down the role of Sarah Tobias in The Accused (1988) and finally the part once assigned to Basinger was won by Foster, for which she won her first Academy Award.

| Goofs | In the award ceremony scene, numerous Austrian flags are show, but all are the civil/merchant version. As an official government function, the flags would have been the state flag (the government flag.) Unlike the United States, Austria and many other nations have multiple national flags for different purposes (government, civilian/merchant, military, on shore versus afloat, etc.) Austria's state flag bears the national coat of arms in the centre, overlapping into both of the red bars. The vertical version of the state flag has the coat of arms turned 90 degrees and placed within a shield. None of the flags in the scene bore the coat of arms. See more » |

Father:
Human beings are remarkable - at what we can learn to live with. If we can't - get strong from what we lose, what we miss, what we want and can't have - then we could never get strong enough, could we? What else makes us strong? See more » |
