NOMINATED FOR: Best Supporting Female
Life is not easy for teenager Hal Hefner. His parents have abruptly split; his older brother pushes him around; and he has an unpredictable stutter that makes high school tough. Ginny Ryerson, the star of the debate team, approaches Hal on the school bus one afternoon to replace her former partner Ben Wekselbaum. The road ahead holds many twists, turns and bumps; despite Hal’s best efforts, people and circumstances prove more unpredictable than any stutter. But Hal manages to score a victory that has nothing to do with winning a debate but everything to do with finding his voice.
