The way her dad reacts to David, you’d think Jade had brought home Marilyn Manson or Dennis Rodman. And he takes an immediate dislike to David from the outset, considering him a lower-class ruffian not worthy of his beautiful daughter.Įven here, the film’s mindset seems off Hugh would probably disapprove of any young man who came sniffing around his daughter’s door, but David is such a sincere, fine-looking fellow of good will that the only possible objection Hugh can have is a very silly, 1950s-type wrong-side-of-the tracks prejudice David’s working-class father ( Robert Patrick) runs an auto shop. She’s heading for Brown in the fall and is meant to spend the summer in a high-end internship her big-deal surgeon father, Hugh ( Bruce Greenwood), has arranged.Īlthough the rest of the family, which includes Hugh’s wife, Anne ( Joely Richardson), and son, Keith ( Rhys Wakefield), seems to have basically recovered, Hugh still hasn’t gotten over the death of his other son some time back he still maintains a candlelit shrine to him in his bedroom in the gated family mansion in Atlanta. A picture-perfect blonde, Jade is said to be a bookish type who’s been so absorbed by her studies for four years that she’s had no time to meet any of her classmates, including David, a pretty hunky guy who, if he’s attracted to Jade as much as he says he is, you’d think would have tried to come on to her at least once before.Īs it is, David has to pull a stunt while parking cars at a snooty restaurant to attract her attention, then goes out of his way to make a success of a party Jade throws in order to finally meet all the classmates she spent four years avoiding. In any event, the term well-scrubbed certainly takes on new meaning when one observes the high school graduating class of which Jade Butterfield ( Gabriella Wilde) and David Elliot ( Alex Pettyfer) are members. This new offering is so bright, spiffy and clean-cut that you half expect Ozzie and Harriet to come popping out the door of one of the houses.
