Producing House

Country girl Rebecca has spent most of her life on a farm in South Dakota, and, when she goes away to college in Los Angeles, Rebecca immediately feels out of place in the daunting urban setting. She is befriended by a savvy party animal named Crawl, who convinces the ambivalent Rebecca to stay in the city. When Thanksgiving break rolls around, Rebecca, no longer an innocent farm girl, invites Crawl back to South Dakota, where he pretends to be her fiancé.

Not sure if _Son in Law_ is a little extra dated, if maybe it's just because I didn't see it until I was already an adult, or if maybe it's just actually worse, but whatever the reason, I didn't vibe with _Son in Law_ as much as I have the other Paulie Shore movies I've seen. Still outright refuse to jump on that hate train though. _Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product._
