Storia
Carlos Nunez (Jay Hernandez), a talented Latino football player from East L.A., attends Pacific Palisades High School on a scholarship. He meets Nicole Oakley (Kirsten Dunst), a wealthy, rebellious student who becomes infatuated with him. Despite the disparity in their backgrounds and warnings from friends and family, Carlos reciprocates Nicole's feelings. Their relationship deepens, but it faces opposition from Nicole's influential father, Congressman Oakley (Bruce Davison). The couple struggles to maintain their love amidst disapproval and social differences.
Riassunto
Crazy Beautiful is a romantic drama that explores the forbidden love between Carlos Nunez, a poor Latino teenager from East L.A., and Nicole Oakley, a wealthy and troubled young woman. Set against the backdrop of Pacific Palisades High School in Los Angeles, the film delves into themes of social class, teenage crushes, and parental interference. While the plot is driven by Carlos's determination to pursue his relationship with Nicole despite the odds, it also showcases the complexities of forbidden love and the challenges faced by interracial couples.
