I`ve seen it today on TV, and I love it.It is such a lovely, lively and romantic story.
Perfect for cold winter mornigs!;)
Beeing twelve years old could be hard, but to have such selfish parents who don't care about their kids this must be horrible. It is a good movie for kids and older one's, because it shows so much of life of a teenager, whose parents are splited. And Jamie( Jeremy L.) is such a sweet guy, that as a girl you can't swich off.

Trini Alvarado and Jeremy Levy play a couple of twelve year old New York City kids going to one of the better schools. Both of the characters have parents getting a divorce or are divorced. The parents fight quite a bit, so much so that they don't pay attention as the kids spend more and more time together. Jeremy's father directs commercials and he is very much into the 70's love the one you're with mentality (pre-AIDS). He gives Jeremy free access to his swinging bachelor pad where he romances trini. By the time both sets of parents realize that the kids have used the neglect to set themself up for a weekend of adult free entertainment, the kids are naked and in the hot tub. Will the parents arrive in time? Watch and see.

This movie is a wonderfully stereotypical example of teen angest from the 80s. Splendid film about rich kids whose parents are headed through a semi-tumultuous divorce, and how they "survive" it all (it aint easy being rich).
