this film be awful . not offensive but extremely predictable . the movie follow the life of a small town family in the mid 60 . the father and the principal at the school and be go through a mid life crisis . enter a pretty teacher from the big city who start challenge her student mind with some thought provoking stuff and like think for yourself . the principal doesn not agree with her teaching but she be pretty . you can connect the dot . his teenage daughter ( winona ryder wannabe tara frederick ) be feed up with the small town lifestyle and want to live . she get some bad advice and hang out with some bad boy and apparently family plan wasn not be teach at her school . shock . see that director paul shapiro have mainly work in tv and this movie play like a more adult version of an after school special or a very special episode of one of the more mundane sitcom .
