Movie Summary
With a plot that is a cross between a teen, low-brow farce and a coming-of-age story, Class opens with scenes of two best friends -- nerdy whiz Jonathan (Andrew McCarthy) and carefree jock Skip (Rob Lowe) -- going around in lingerie; they also barf on a double date, break into a quiet meeting at a girls school, and generally behave as emotional throwbacks. But when the nerd Jonathan is picked up in a Chicago bar by Skips mother Ellen (Jacqueline Bisset), the tone changes completely. The affair between the student and the older woman is torrid until they rendezvous in New York and Ellen dumps Jonathan because she finds out he is not a Ph.D. candidate from Northwestern University. Meanwhile, Jonathan does not know who Ellen is until Skip brings him home for the Christmas holidays and the two clandestine, September-May ex-lovers come face to face with the truth. The next problem is what to admit or not admit about their past. Although the tone of the movie has changed by now, the story is weakened by the duality of childish versus adult behavior. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
