Story

Oscar Grubmann (Aaron Stanford) is 15, speaks fluent French, is an expert on Voltaire, and completely obsessed with the opposite sex. ‘Tadpole’ Oscar is madly in love with Eve (Sigourney Weaver), a woman in her midforties, who happens to have married his father (John Ritter). This leads to a number of complications, especially when Eve’s friend, Diane (Bebe Neuwirth), gives the erotically-charged teenager an introduction to the pleasures of bodily love. An intelligent sex comedy, more in the tradition of “The Graduate” than “American Pie”.
