Ben Stiller made his feature directing debut with Reality Bites, a fresh, irreverant romantic comedy about life and love for post-Baby-Boomers. It's graduation day, 1994, and Lelaina Pierce is taking her first, bold step into the final frontier - reality. Unfortunately, her future seems to have moved away without leaving a forwarding address. Wynona Ryder and Ethan Hawke star with Janeane Garofalo and Steve Zahn as a circle of friends, who, facing some hard facts about life and love after college, are mapping out their own offbeat survival guide for the 1990s.
