Comedy-drama set in fifties Baltimore. Starring Steve Guttenberg, Mickey Rourke, Ellen Barkin
Baltimore, 1959: for five young men, the local diner is the centre of their world, a place in which to laugh, cry, reminisce about the past and make plans for the future. In this particular week, they celebrate Christmas and face up to adulthood - which means saying goodbye to love and an end to their diner days.
