SYNOPSIS
All I Want (aka Try Seventeen). Seventeen year-old Jones (Elijah Wood) has decided to avoid college in favour of renting an apartment, and attempting to learn from life while trying to become a writer. As he tries to gain his mother’s (Elizabeth Perkins) approval and figure out his father’s whereabouts, he becomes involved with both Lisa (Mandy Moore), a struggling actress, and Jane (Franka Potente), an older photographer. When Jane is involved in a car accident, and an ex-boyfriend comes to take care of her, Jones realises how strong his feelings are for her. He then enlists his strange neighbour, Brad (Aaron Pearl), to help win Jane’s love. Look out for a cameo by Deborah Harry as Ma Mabley, an over-sexed seller of beds.
