An overweight high school senior makes the best of a cruel prank when her classmates nominate her as Homecoming Queen and she decides to win the crown for real. Maggie Baker (Nikki Blonski) is a high school senior who just doesn't fit in with the popular kids; her family isn't rich, she isn't decked out in all the latest fashions, and she always seems to get singled out at school due to her weight. When one of Maggie's more sadistic classmates makes the cruel move of nominating her as Homecoming Queen, the plus-sized student goes against the advice of both the administration and her widowed mom in an attempt to reclaim her pride and avoid letting the mean girls have the last laugh. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Glenn Close and James Woods star in this artery-clogging schmaltz about a childless couple who desperately want to have a baby. Linda (Close) and Michael Spector (Woods) are an upscale couple who have everything -- except a child. Linda mists over after she takes her temperature, plans the correct time for conception, and then her period starts. Despite medical intervention, the Spectors cannot conceive. They finally decide to adopt a child and meet the pregnant 17-year-old Lucy (Mary Stuart Masterson), who decides that the Spectors can provide a better home for her child than she and her boyfriend Sam (Kevin Dillon) could. The Spectors look Lucy over and determine -- since Lucy's mother died when she was seven -- to take care of her during her pregnancy. The three bond as they await the birth of Lucy's child. But now Lucy has second thoughts about the decision to turn her baby over to the Spectors. The solution for this happy group? Adopt Lucy and become the "immediate family." ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi
