Synopsis |
|
Jim Carrey took on his first
dramatic role in this TV drama about
a white bread middle class American
family and the struggles and
heartaches they face in staying
together. Phil and Lisa Carter are
restauranteurs with three grown
children: Karen, a successful writer
who sacrificed her career to marry a
photographer of whom her parents
disapproved; Tim (Carrey), an
alcoholic who dropped out of college
despite his academic promise; and
their youngest, Matt, upon whom the
Carters rest all their hopes. Matt
is a successful student at Yale and
is engaged to the beautiful and rich
Allison; he seems to be living up to
his parents' expectations, until
Allison finds a letter from one of
Matt's former lovers, who is a man.
Allison leaves Matt and he goes to
great, and even life-threatening,
lengths to avoid coming out to his
parents. |
