Storyline

Set in 1969, a twelve-year-old grows up in Key West with his mother, who is paying the bills by stripping at the local topless bar. The boy finds out about her activities and tries to convince her to stop, to no avail. A local restaurant owner hires him to collect fish from a boat out in the bay, and the boy discovers that the restaurant owner is using the fish to bring drugs in to shore. He steals one load and goes about selling it so his mother can afford to quit her job.

| Trivia | The Eden House, featured in the movie, is a real hotel, and is the oldest hotel in Key West. Built in 1924 as the Gibson Hotel, it was purchased in 1975 by titular owner, Mike Eden. According to Mr. Eden, on the hotel's web site: "The movie CrissCross (1992) starring Goldie Hawn was filmed at the Eden House for five months over the summer of 1990. Scott Sommer wrote the short story CrissCross while staying at the Eden House in early 1976." The Eden House is still in business and has been totally renovated since the movie. See more » |
