Synopsis
This thriller takes place in Blue Bay, Florida, where social-climbing guidance counselor Sam Lombardo (
Matt Dillon
) is indifferent to teen-socialite Kelly Van Ryan (
Denise Richards
), who retaliates by accusing him of rape, an accusation that leads to his suspension by the school and a rejection from the country club. He can't afford a big attorney, so he hires shrewd Ken Bowden (
Bill Murray
), while Kelly's mom, Sandra Van Ryan (
Theresa Russell
), Sam's former lover, gets a platoon of top lawyers. Trailer-trash Suzie Toller (
Neve Campbell
) backs up Kelly's claim and additional plot twists and turns develop. The seldom-seen Carrie Snodgrass (
Diary of a Mad Housewife
) has a supporting role in this film. ~ Bhob Stewart, All Movie Guide
