Synopsis
It is 1969. 16 yr. old Jamie Schwartz, desperate to be a worldly adolescent, has landed at an all-boys boarding school for all the wrong reasons. Ostracized by nearly everyone, he clings to the unshakable belief that he will someday play Holden Caulfield—the main character from the book The Catcher in the Rye—on Broadway and in the movies. Jamie adapts the novel into a play to put on at school, but after a series of increasingly hostile incidents he runs away to search for the book's reclusive author, JD Salinger. On the way Deedee Gorlin, a quirky townie, picks him up. Their odyssey to find Salinger and the roller-coaster of events that follow is a journey into the meanings of friendship, sex, love and loss.
