I absolutely loved this movie. Delightfully entertaining, this movie takes you on a truly wonderful adventure. Based in a small Christian town, the story reveals heroine, Moonie Pottie (Liane Balaban) and her plot to escape the drudgery of her small town to pursue an arts scholarship in new york.
Moonie is a loner and an outcast who is very easy for many teenagers to relate to. She recieves a NY scholarship and discovers a best friend in the unwanted newcomer next door, an infamous boxer's daughter named Lou (Tara Spencer-Nairn). Upon discovering that her parents won't let her go to NY, Moonie comes up with a plan. The only way out of town is to Antigonish to have an abortion. So, Eventually, Moonie fabricates a rumor that she's become a 'slut' and fakes a pregnancy in order to be sent away. In between, we see a little Andrew McCarty as her teacher, Mr. Sweeny. All in all, I'd say it's the best movie I've ever seen.
