Synopsis
The intriguing action takes place in the small Texas town of McCarthy in 1975. Inside of a five-and- dime store, a reunion is planned for the members of a local 1950s James Dean fan club, on the anniversary of his death. They relentlessly mull over their lives with wit and pathos in the present and in flashback, revealing the truth behind their complicated lives. Who is the mysterious Joanne and what's the real troubled and disturbing story behind Mona's son, James Dean Junior?
