Lane Meyer is obsessed with his girlfriend Beth and is crushed when she falls for the new captain of the ski team, Roy. After several failed suicide attempts, narrow escapes from the relentless paper boy, and nearly unbearable dinners at home with his crazy family, Lane finds a new love in French exchange student Monique Junot. Meanwhile, he must beat Roy on the slopes to regain his honor.

Movie Parental Guide

nudity There is a scene where Lane and Beth are in a car and they are under a blanket and moaning can be barely heard. In this scene, we hear Beth complaining "It broke??" suggesting a condom. Lane accidentally pulls off a womans dress and her underwear is shown. Lane walks in to his brothers room and there are a couple of woman in their underwear.
violence Comedic, slapstick violence. Lane keeps trying to commit suicide and failing, to comedic effect, using various methods (hanging, carbon monoxide poisoning, etc.)
profanity 3 uses of sh*t, 1 use of a**, and there is some mild vulgar talk.
alcohol A few people smoke. It is implied that one older character is a regular drinker. One character is constantly trying to get high by snorting things. But since there are no drugs around, he snorts snow, gelatin, anything except drugs.
frightening The so-called "frightening" scenes are done in a comedic fashion.
