A sweeping multigenerational story set against the backdrop of the raw, roaring New York City of the late 1980s; adoption, teen pregnancy, drugs, hardcore punk rock, the unbridled optimism and reckless stupidity of the young—and old—are all major elements in this heart-aching tale of the son of diehard hippies and his strange odyssey through the extremes of late 20th century youth culture.
Directed by Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini

Not as bad as I thought it would be but outstays its welcome for sure

Though it fails to cram all of the story it wants to into without bein off balance and rushed, I did really like this. Ethan Hawke sure got better with age.
