| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about The Allnighter |
|---|
Molly (Hoffs), Val (Pfeiffer) and Gina (Cusack) are best friends and roommates who are graduating from Pacifica College but on their last night two of the women are frustrated and uncertain about their lives. Molly agonizes over her lack of at least one great romance during her college years and also obsesses over her valedictorian speech; Val questions her engagement to Brad (Phil Brock); and Gina, the filmmaker is too busy videotaping their last moments for posterity to really notice a whole lot else. Their two male friends, CJ (Terlesky) and Killer (Shanta) spend their free time surfing but have issues of their own. CJ is in love with Molly but doesn't know how to tell her and Killer decides its time for him and CJ to part company and go it alone. It's the friends last night to party at the fiesta and that is exactly what they're going to do!
--Patti Illsley, Resident Scholar
