Plot
Bobby Barbato (Keaton) is a pro athlete in ice hockey. As always, he expects cheering crowds and beautiful women coming after him. But one day, a gang of youths begin to mug him but he manages to fend them off and then catches the youngest member of the gang, Louis DeLeon (Naidu). He then gives Louis a ride home and meets his mother, Denise (Alonso).

Trivia
The film was wrapped in 1984 but then shelved, due to a change of studio representation–from Universal to Tri-Star–as well as extensive rescoring and reassembling of promotional ads during post-production.[1] It was then released in late 1986.
