10-year-old Harriet dreams of leaving her home, where she doesn't feel she's needed by her mother and sister Gwen. When her mother dies in a car accident, she really starts to make plans for leaving and she finally does so together with her childlike (mentally ill) friend Ricky.
When Joan’s husband dies, she is shocked to discover he had invented an elixir which makes the drinker look young again. Sharing it with her two friends, the three women paint the town red but soon discover that they are no longer equipped to be young in the modern world.
查理（克里斯•奥唐纳 Chris O'Donnell 饰）是一个普通的中学生，他因为见证着一件恶作剧但又不想出卖朋友，于是面临着一道艰难的选择题——要么坦白，要么被学校勒退。而史法兰（阿尔•帕西诺 Al Pacino 饰）是一个退伍军官，因为意外失明，人生从顶点的辉煌滑落谷底。
自从两人的人生有了交集，命运的转折慢慢清晰。史法兰打算结束失去了意义的生活，于是在查理的陪伴下，尽情享受着人生最后一趟出行。他吃最美味的佳肴，买光鲜的汽车，在狭窄的街道上飚车，住在豪华的套房里，跟随陌生女子的袅袅香水味，跳一段优雅性感的探戈……极乐的疯狂后，他拿枪对准了自己的头颅。然而，查理声嘶力竭的劝阻改变了一切，曙光亦渐渐在这个老人心中重新升起，二人情深如父子。
史法兰在学校礼堂激昂演说，挽救了查理的前途，讽刺了学校的伪善。二人在互相鼓舞中得到重生
