American Pie (1999) Movie Synopsis
It's said that most American men think about sex once every two or three
minutes, but this statistic would seriously underestimate the horniness
of Jim (Jason Biggs), a high school senior in suburban Michigan. Jim is
thoroughly obsessed with sex, a fact of which his parents become aware
when they discover him performing the sin of Onan with a gym sock while
watching scrambled pay-per-view porn. Jim's buddies Kevin (Thomas Ian
Nicholas), Finch (Eddie Kaye Thomas), and Oz (Chris Klein) are no less
anxious to relieve
themselves of their virginity, so they all make a pledge: they will go
to bed with a woman in the three weeks before senior prom or die trying.
Kevin appears to have the advantage, since he already has a girlfriend,
Vicky (Tara Reid), but before he ventures into the Final Frontier,
Kevin is urged to consult "The Bible," a hand-written how-to manual
possessing erotic wisdom passed down through the ages. Oz is a
good-looking jock who is actually a nice guy -- which is part of the
problem, since he has his heart set on a nice girl, Heather (Mena
Suvari), who does not seem the type to leap into bed within 21 days.
Finch has no immediate prospects, though Jessica (Natasha Lyonne) is in a
position to know if those rumors about him are true. And Jim is a truly
hopeless case -- after his attempted seduction of beautiful Czech
exchange student Nadia (Shannon Elizabeth) turns out to be a disaster,
he ends up going to the prom with Michelle (Alyson Hannigan), an
annoyingly chatty band geek who does, however, have a fascinating story
about a flute. American Pie was the directorial debut of Paul Weitz,
who, along with his brother Chris Weitz (who served as producer),
previously wrote several screenplays, including Antz and Madeline (where
they presumably worked all their wholesome ideas out of their system).
