Just Friends - Solo amici (2005)
Chris Brander è un adolescente decisamente sovrappeso che si trova in una situazione per lui decisamente difficile da sostenere. Consapevole della sua scarsa avvenenza è però da sempre il 'migliore amico' della bella Jamie Palamino che non è nemmeno sfiorata dall'idea che lui possa essersene innamorato. Umiliato pubblicamente da coetanei spacconi nel corso di una festa Chris prende una decisione definitiva: lasciare la città. Lo ritroveremo dieci anni dopo. Chris è diventato un bel ragazzo che frequenta il jet set artistico di Los Angeles e che si diverte a prendere e gettare via le ragazze. Costretto da un produttore a viaggiare con una cantante dalla sensualità tanto prorompente quanto volgare, Chris si trova coinvolto in una sosta forzata proprio dalle parti di casa sua. Ritroverà sua madre, il fratello minore col quale è sempre stato in conflitto e...Jamie.
