Based on the best-selling novel by S.E. Hinton, TEX is a realistic account of a 15-year-old adolescent's maturation, relationships, and acceptance of responsibility. The struggles and conflicts of two teenage brothers growing up in the Southwest without parental guidance is the focus of this coming-of-age adventure. Says critic Rex Reed, "A major accomplishment in the tradition of BREAKING AWAY and DINER, TEX will make you feel good to be alive."
