ABOUT ABOUT

This endlessly quotable '80s Christmas cult classic from Savage Steve Holland stars John Cusack as a high schooler whose girlfriend dumps him for the captain of the ski team. His best friend (Booger from REVENGE OF THE NERDS) comes up with a plan for him to win her back: skiing the K12. But he must first survive his mother's otherworldly cooking, the exchange students constantly trying to drag race his station wagon, the paperboy who's VERY SERIOUS about getting his two dollars, and his own doubts about whether life is worth living without the object of his obsession. Rated PG-13, 97 mins. "The kind of movie that people won’t really fess up to liking, but I’ve rarely met anyone who didn’t secretly love it passionately." - Film Threat
