Plot: Screenwriter Craig Bolotin takes a first stab at directing with That Night, a romantic reminiscence of teen love in 1960s Long Island based on a novel by Alice McDermott. Alice (Eliza Dushku) is a reserved, introspective 12-year-old girl who idealizes her neighbor, high-school student Sheryl (Juliette Lewis). Through Alice's point-of-view, we witness the deterioration of Sheryl's life after the death of her father. After becoming pregnant after a fling with the blunt Rick (C. Thomas Howell), Sheryl is whisked away to a home for unwed mothers. Observing Rick's torment, Alice crawls out of her shell to help him track down Sheryl and reunite the two lovers. ~ Paul Brenner, All Movie Guide

I first watched this movie on TV. The channel I saw it on played it constantly and it quickly became a favorite. I think it's a wonderful story and it has many great people in it! I do hope it gets put on DVD one day soon, so then I can watch it without hooking up my VCR!

This is a wonderful movie set in the 50's about a little girl who adores her neighbor who lives across the street. A GREAT movie that should be released on DVD so that everyone can enjoy.

1961: JFK was in the White House,the "Red Scare" was on everyone's lips,Rock 'n' roll was on the transistors, The Beatles had not invaded from Britain yet and the country was hitting puberty and change,big change was in the air!

THAT NIGHT,which comes from the delightful Alice MacDermott novel views the country and all of it's pending metamorphosis through the eyes of ten year old Alice;she seems primed for the big changes that are about to occur in her as she lives vicariously through the exotic and near iconic 17 year old Sheryl.Sheryl (Juliette Lewis) has grown up in the perfect Catholic home,but she has fallen for a "greaser" (C.Thomas Howell).Alice (Eliza Dusku)becomes enamoured with the love affair and the ensuing drama that this "forbidden" relationship brings upon the fine people of this post 1950's suburban community.

THAT NIGHT recreates this time of innocence in American life when black and white was clearly defined;but when true love steps in,convention is rocked to it's foundation.For those of us who grew up in this Era,we will understand the nature of the story all too well and will wax nostalgically to the sounds of the time.The taboos of the time have largely disappeared from progressive society,but the story is ageless about the intense and nonsensical power of "first love." It is a coming of age story like many others before and after it, but there is a certain sweetness and gentleness that pervades this film.Best described,THAT NIGHT is a ten year old's rendering of ROMEO AND JULIET.
