The supporting cast includes Laila Robins, Graham Beckel and Frances Fisher.After she left the town of Clyde, Ohio following the birth of her child, Roxy Carmichael became a movie star as well as the legend of her home town (to the point where her house has become its own museum). 15 years later, she announces her comeback, much to the town's excitement—but not to Denton Webb (Daniels), who was her fiancé and struggles to get over his relationship with her. Meanwhile, Dinky Bossetti (Ryder) is a lonely, troubled teenager who has a fascination over Roxy, and as she keeps getting information from Denton, begins to get a bigger picture on what's behind Clyde's local icon.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

All of the Other Reindeer: Dinky is either picked on by other teenagers or disregarded by the town's adults early in the film.

Character Title: Although Roxy is only the constant talk of the town while the story mostly centers on Dinky (Roxy is only shown through flashbacks and suggestive shots, and doesn't make any official appearance throughout the whole film).
