- A Quirky Take on Teenage Angst
A secret 1990 classic comedy about the perils of being so different from everyone else. Dinky is the adopted daughter of two very normal parents. She often retreats to the river to take care of stray animals who she has rescued from time to time. Dinky is having a horrible time in school as the ultimate outcast who sits alone in the cafeteria while popular kids throw food at her. Feeling so alien and alone Dinky retreats inside and wishes someone could just understand her. When another town outcast announces she is returning to town, the infamous Roxy Carmichael, Dinky's dark cloud lifts and she sess hope. Somehow convinced Roxy is her real mother and coming to take her away, Dinky's mind goes further into a fantasy of escape to a better place. When the illusion spirals out of control ... Dinky is unable to notice that people do care for her ... her school counsellor, adoptive father, and the boy next door.

- the lost teen movie
My roommate likes this movie, but I love it. It's a teen movie that is better than all of John Hughes teen films combined. It stars Winona Ryder in the type of movie I love to see her in.

- WINONA RYDER IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE STAR
BACK IN THE EARLY 90's I WATCHED THIS MOVIE NUMEROUS TIMES. THERE IS A BIT OF RYDER'S CHARACTER (DINKY BOSSETTI) IN ALL OF US. I REALLY ENJOYED WINONA IN HER TEEN ROLES AND I ENJOY HER WORK NOW.

SHE SECRETLY AWAITS THE HOMECOMING OF ROXY CARMICHAEL, WHO IS A LEGEND IN DINKY'S HOME TOWN OF CLYDE OHIO. SHE ALSO BELIEVES THAT ROXY CARMICHAEL IS HER REAL MOTHER AND THAT DENTON (JEFF DANIELS) IS HER REAL FATHER. WHILE BLEEDING INFORMATION OUT OF DENTON IT ALL SEEMS TO MAKE SENSE TO HER 15 YEAR OLD MIND. ONLY BECAUSE THATS WHAT SHE HOPES. "WELCOME HOME ROXY CARMICHAEL" HAS THIS MESSAGE.. DON'T BELIEVE WHAT YOU WANT TO BELIEVE JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK THE GRASS MAY BE GREENER ON THE OTHER SIDE. WINONA RYDER BY THE WAY IS STELLAR IN THE LEAD ROLE. YOUR HEART IS IN HER HAND THE WHOLE TIME. WHEN I FIRST ... Read More

- Dinky, my hero....
Its hard to star rate this. It's a film that doesn't explain itself - you either get it or you don't.
Words that occur are:
Incomplete, quirky, beautiful. If you had a rough time at school (or are at this time) you'll easily find the nuggets in this film. Dinky is my hero!
