Summary
Fatalistic teenager George Zingavoy (Freddie Highmore) is a master at just barely getting by. In fact, he's practically turned it into an art form -- making it through the entire school year without doing a shred of work. But when George meets a beautiful and complicated girl named Sally (Emma Roberts), he discovers a kindred spirit who turns his slacker world upside down. Their quirky and unexpected romance may just inspire George to do the unthinkable-get off his butt and chase after his dreams
