Plot

Angie (Geena Davis) is an office worker who lives in the Bensonhurst section of Brooklyn, New York and dreams of a better life. After learning that she is pregnant by her boyfriend Vinnie (James Gandolfini), she decides that she will have the baby, but not Vinnie as a husband.

This turns the entire neighborhood upside down and starts her on a journey of self discovery, including a love affair with a man named Noel (Stephen Rea) she meets at an art museum. Even her best friend Tina (Aida Turturro) has trouble understanding Angie.
