2010 · 99 min

A gentle, bittersweet coming-of-age story that balances awkward humor with genuine emotion, easy to watch and quietly affecting.

Tagline: Too young? Too old? You do the math.
Overview: Ivy League Freshman, Aaron Milton (17) gets a different kind of education when he falls for Linda (34) a vivacious former wild-child who has returned to college to straighten out her life. The curriculum gets more challenging when Aaron meets Linda's sarcastic 14 year-old daughter, Beth - who quickly develops a crush on him. The math doesn't work in either direction but the dysfunctional triangle becomes a learning experience for all involved.
How it feels: Warm, light, melancholic and romantic. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Coming-of-age, love, family, identity
Content: Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
