[edit] Plot

Jonathan is sent by prep-school roommate Skip to a Chicago bar to meet a girl and gain sexual experience. He is picked up by Ellen, a beautiful older woman, and has an affair with her. Over Christmas break at the Burroughs' estate, he discovers that Ellen is Skip's mother.

[edit] Chicago Landmarks in the Film

The scene where Jonathan arrives in Chicago was filmed on Chicago's popular Division Street. Shenannigan's House of Beers is seen when Jonathan is being dropped off by the cab. Mother's (26 W. Division Street)is actually the location of the "Free and Easy" club as depicted in the movie. The majority of the movie is filmed at Lake Forest College.

[edit] Quotes

  • Mr. Burroughs: Jonathan, you and I have something in common. Can you guess what that might be?
  • Skip Burroughs: [to Jonathan] You ever wonder if your parents still 'do it'?
