Talented young sketch artist Jerome Platz escapes from high school to a tiny East Coast art college. Here his ambition is to become, like his hero Picasso, the world's greatest artist. Unfortunately the beauty and craft of Jerome's portraiture are not appreciated in an art class that he finds bewildering and bogus, neither his harsh judgments of his classmates' efforts nor his later attempts to create pseudo-art of his own win him any admirers, though he does attract the attentions of his dream girl - the stunning and sophisticated Audrey. Rejecting the affectations of the local art scene Audrey is drawn to Jerome's sincerity, though, when the young lass shifts her attentions to hunky painter Jonah, Jerome is heartbroken. Desperate, he concocts a risky plan to make a name for himself and win her back, but the course of true obsession doesn't run smoothly for the hapless Jerome. A high quality take on the pseudness of art with a serial killer sub-plot as well as the aforementioned love scene. Congratulations: Your vote has been cast
