A high-school reunion in a snowy New England town brings together a diverse band of former classmates. They include NYC pianist Willie
Timothy Hutton who has found only small success playing night clubs and is considering taking a job as a supply salesman. While in town, Willie, who is having relationship problems with his girlfriend, finds himself becoming friends with 13 year-old Marty
Natalie Portman. Then there's Tommy
Matt Dillon, the aging jock who though seriously involved with Sharon
Mira Sorvino, cannot resist the occasional walk down memory lane by sleeping with the former prom-queen Darian
Lauren Holly, who is married but believes that her husband won't find out. Paul
Michael Rapaport is dumped by his waitress girlfriend Jan
Martha Plimpton, in part because of the swimsuit-clad supermodels plastered all over his walls. Paul then becomes attracted to Andera
Uma Thurman, who is visiting her cousin Stinky
Pruitt Taylor Vince, a local tavern owner. Also among the group -- Gina
Rosie O'Donnell, who fancies herself a feminist counselor and who, in one of the film's highlights, delivers a poignant rant against how magazines present unrealistic images of women.
