Tadpole. ...the thing you really take home with you is
Aaron Stanford's career-making performance. A 25-year-old Rutgers
University graduate and current resident of Union City, New Jersey,
Stanford gets Oscar, the 15-year-old lovestruck prep-schooler,

precocious young hero.-- Newsweek on-line, January 19, 2002.
Stanford is consistently brilliant in a role that could easily play
smug or brittle, but he's got gravitas without weariness, portraying
fixation without becoming overbearing.-- Ray Pride, Indiewire.com
