This is the story of two best friends who grew up together in suburban Cleveland in the 1960s and 1970s who reunited in New York City's East Village in the early 1980s as the core of a romantic triangle. Bobby (Farrell) is a dark, heterosexual hipster who moves in with Jonathan (Roberts), his gay best friend, only to discover that he soon falls in love with Clare (Penn), Jonathan's eccentric and sexy roommate. As Bobby and Clare's relationship develops, it spoils Jonathan's plans to be the father of her baby, which creates tension in his friendship with Bobby. As the story develops, the trio forms a sort of family, moving to the upstate New York home of Jonathan's mother, Alice (Spacek), who has had her own relationship problems with Jonathan's father, Ned (Frewer).
