Movie Description
In this sentimental study of life, friendship and romance, three girlhood chums attend college together. One, a straightforward, rather plain lass, sets her sights on the best-looking boy in school and their tender relationship belies their differences. Based on a novel by Maeve Binchy.
Synopsis
Three college friends in Dublin come of age when they discover romances that will change their lives forever. The tale centers on Benny, a bland and somewhat chunky innocent girl who falls hopelessly in love with the star of the rugby team. Everyone is surprised and delighted when he returns her affections.
