A different drama we live through the ambition of a student named Carlos, a straight student in his academic life, perhaps he may be a perfect young man. Over time, Carlos's future is uncertain as he becomes the target of courting the self-destructive girl called Nicole Oakley. Nicole may have changed the life of Carlos, who is trying to control his life again.
The movie is so predictable, it's not surprising that the script is credited to first-timers Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi, and the direction to John Stockwell, a former acting peer to Tom Cruise.

The movie's dramatic moments come from dialogue not actions, and much of the time viewers are left on their own to fill in the words that remain unspoken.
Even when the movie is bad -- which it is in its abrupt, mismanaged, final-act attempt to cram in moments of forgiveness and clarity -- it's addictively so.
