Plots(1)
In a bleak and sleepy 50s Texas town, two high-school seniors, stars on a losing football team, ponder their futures, carry on love affairs with the town sweetheart and an older, married woman respectively, and look to fatherly advice from the ex-cowboy owner of the town's pool hall/cafe and moviehouse. But when the moviehouse closes for good it not only forces the youths to reexamine what lies ahead, it also signals the end of an era. (official distributor synopsis)
