Movie Info
A wacky screwball sex comedy for the kids and grandpa too? Seinfeld's Jason Alexander makes his directorial debut with this gentle but funny coming-of-age story set in 1955 about Lenny (Ryan Merriman), a 14-year-old from the Bronx who is dedicated to witnessing a copulating couple. His early attempts at spying on his mom and her new corpulent husband Polinsky are thwarted when he is sent to live with his aunt Norma and uncle Phil in Queens for the summer. He soon learns that Norma is pregnant.

lighthearted, nostalgic comedy
The timing's off on almost every scene, giving you too much time to accurately predict what'll occur next.
The sets, the cars, the costumes, everything about the production is authentically nostalgic.
