Short description
JR is a fatherless boy growing up in the glow of a bar where the bartender, his Uncle Charlie, is the sharpest and most colorful of an assortment of quirky and demonstrative father figures. As the boy’s determined mother struggles to provide her son with opportunities denied to her — and leave the dilapidated home of her outrageous if begrudgingly supportive father — JR begins to gamely, if not always gracefully, pursue his romantic and professional dreams, with one foot persistently placed in Uncle Charlie’s bar.
What's left behind the scenes
- The bowling scene features candlepin bowling, a variety popular in the northwestern United States, such as New England.
- Ben Affleck liked the script so much that he initially even offered to play Uncle Charlie for free.
- The car chase scene with Daniel Ranieri and Max Martini was filmed in one take. Its description in the script took up six pages.
