Short description

Nerdy high schooler Jerry Mitchell is assigned to write an article for the school paper about the infamous new delinquent transfer student, Buddy Revell. When Jerry accidentally invades Buddy's personal space and touches him, Buddy challenges Jerry to an afterschool fight in the parking lot, which Jerry tries to avoid at all costs.

What's left behind the scenes

The film was shot at Ogden High School in Utah, USA.
Steven Spielberg was an executive producer on this film, but he requested that his name be removed from the credits.
The name "Hugh Conlon III" written on the board when Jerry is in director Dolinsky's office belongs to Hugh Conlon – the film's set decorator.
During a book report, Jerry asks his English teacher what her favorite book is. She replies "The Turn of the Screw" (Henry James), and then Jerry kisses her. There is a part in that book where the teacher kisses a student.
The theme playing during the documentary Jerry watches in biology class is “Out to Sea” from the film *Jaws* (1975).
Ogden High School in Ogden, Utah, USA, where the film was shot, would later be featured in *Go* (1999).
