(A romantic drama
centered on two new lovers: Tyler, whose parents have split in the wake of his
brother's suicide, and Ally, who lives each day to the fullest since witnessing
her mother's murder.)
Summary:
Tyler Hawkins is a moody, directionless 21 year old, who is
auditing classes at the NYU and working in the university bookstore. He has had
a strained relationship with his businessman father, Charles since his brother
Michael's suicide. Charles appears to ignore his youngest child, Caroline, of
whom Tyler is very close bonded and protective of. His closest friend is his
roommate Aidan.
One night, Tyler and Aidan are hanging out at the small
alley find themselves in trouble with Neil, who arrests Tyler. Charles bails
out Tyler. Later, Aidan sees Neil dropping Ally off at NYU, realizing that she
is his daughter. He decides to retaliate against the detective by persuading
Tyler to sleep with and ultimately dump Ally. Tyler reluctantly agrees to meet
her. After spending some time together, Ally and Tyler bond over the losses in
their lives and begin to fall in love. After Ally sleeps over at Tyler's house,
she and her father have a fight over it, ending with Neil hitting her. Ally,
disgusted with this, moves in permanently with Tyler and Aidan. Meanwhile,
Caroline, who is a budding artist, is featured in an art show. Tyler tries to
convince his father to attend the show, but he is forced away on business.
Tyler angrily confronts him after the show, which drives a further wedge
between the two.
Later,
Neil's partner recognizes Tyler with Ally on a train coming from a beach
holiday with his family. Neil breaks into Tyler's apartment and confronts
Tyler. Tyler provokes Neil by confessing to Aidan's plan and his initial reason
for meeting Ally, which in turn forces Tyler to confess everything to Ally. She
leaves him angrily and returns to her father's home. Also, Caroline is bullied
by a group of classmates at a birthday party; they cut her hair off, and when
they tease her in front of Tyler, he turns violent and ends up in jail again.
Charles is impressed that Tyler stood up for his sister, and they begin to
reconnect.
Meanwhile, Tyler and Ally remain alienated and away from
each other until Aidan visits her to explain that only he is to blame, and that
Tyler was sincerely in love with her. They are then shown to be back together,
as they walk with Caroline in the park. Later, Charles asks Tyler to meet with
him and his lawyers at his office. Charles takes Caroline to school and is late,
so Tyler waits in his office, where he sees, on Charles's computer, a
screensaver of pictures of Tyler, Michael, and Caroline when they were younger,
indeed showing that although he is always away, he cares for them.
After Charles drops Caroline to school, she sits in her
classroom, where the teacher writes the date on the blackboard as11-09-2001.
Once the 9/11 terrorist attacks begin, the rest of the family are seen looking
horrified at the towers before the camera pans over the rubble, showing Tyler's
diary. Tyler is later buried next to Michael.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE
PART OF THE MOVIE:
“Whatever you do in life will be
insignificant, but it's very important that you do it. Because nobody else
will. Like when someone comes into your life and half of you says you're
nowhere near ready, but the other half says: make her yours forever”
This phrase is at the end of the movie, when producing the
attacks of 9/11 and makes us reflect on the moments that we do not seize in
life.....
