Outside Providence
Tim's getting a future... whether he likes it or not!
Directed by Michael Corrente
Produced by Eagle Beach Productions, Miramax
A warm, comedic coming-of-age story about a directionless stoner forced into prep school who finds redemption through romance and personal growth.
In this coming-of-age comedy, Tim Dunphy is leading a go-nowhere existence, spending his days smoking pot and hanging out with his best friend, Drugs Delaney. But Tim's lazy days of getting high are jettisoned after a brush with the law convinces his blue-collar dad to send him to a Connecticut prep school. The one saving grace of the new school is Jane, a fellow student Tim falls for immediately.
