Storyline
| Plot Summary |
In 1956, shy Jonathan's luck with girls changes when he wins the rebellious Gene as a friend in his last year of high school. Gene is adored by many girls and manages to teach Jonathan a few things. Gene himself would rather just be with one girl: his girlfriend Bunny, but since his father is poor, her parents don't accept him.

| Crazy Credits | The 20th Century Fox logo fades to reveal the iconic phrase from Star Wars, "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away..." (though in white, not blue). This appears for several seconds before "Ohio, 1956" is added to the the screen and all but the ellipsis fades from the Star Wars phrase. See more » |
