Comment
Kathleen Turner is a middle aged woman in the middle of a divorce from Nicholas Cage, who collapses at her high school reunion and is transported back in time to relive her high school days. Once over the shock she has to decide if she will make the same choices again, particularly regarding her relationship with Nicholas Cage. The basic plot may not be original, but it is a good combination or romance, relationships and time trave against a good 1950's sound trackl. Kathleen Turner's uses all her acting skills as a 32 year old playing a teenager to make this an enjoyable film and she is well supported by the rest of the cast including Nicholas Cage and an early supporting role from Jim Carrey.
