One of the classics in contemporary American gay cinema, Edge of Seventeen recalls one high school student's eventful and raucous coming-out during the steamy summer of 1984. Eric (Chris Stafford) is a 17-year-old senior from Ohio who takes a summer job at a local amusement park. Working alongside his best gal pal Maggie (Tina Holmes), the two idle away the days until Eric meets Rod (Andersen Gabrych), a sexy and openly gay college student. Soon sparks fly and Eric must confront feelings he had long suppressed. A funny, entertaining and insightful coming-of-age tale, Edge of Seventeen is enhanced by a great '80s soundtrack (including Bronski Beat and Eurythmics), terrific period design and a high-energy, up-beat tempo, making this an exciting and original take on growing up and finding love.
