What happens?

Hot star David Schwimmer (TV's FRIENDS) makes a hilarious big-screen debut in this outrageous comedy hit.

As Tom Thompson, the popular star plays a befuddled college grad whose social life is practically D.O.A. ... that is, until he's asked to be a pallbearer at the funeral of a classmate he can't remember.

Comic chaos follows as Tom fends off the seductive advances of the grieving mother (Barbara Hershey -- BEACHES), and tries desperately to find the nerve to ask out the beautiful girl of his dreams (Academy Award® winner Gwyneth Paltrow, Best Actress, 1998, SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE) -- who can't remember him.
