The year is 1971. The Vietnam War is going full force. Kevin Costner as party animal Gardner Barnes leads the dynamic cast of five college pals, "The Groovers," who embark upon a rowdy cross-Texas road trip to stave off the reality of their respective futures. Sam Robards as Kenneth, Brian Cesak as Lester, Chuck Bush as Dorman, and Judd Nelson as Phil are a motley crew of mismatched temperaments and interests, yet they all head straight into fun-loving hijinks, including classic college pranks. This is ajovial film about growing up, heading out and busting loose. (1985)
