Britney Spears makes the transition to the big screen with this teen road trip
romantic comedy, co-produced by the film branch of the entity that first brought her
pop stardom,
MTV.
Crossroads casts
Spears as
Lucy, the shy valedictorian of her high school graduating class. On the night of their prom,
Lucy and her once-close childhood friends -- the prim and proper
Kit (
Zoe Saldana) and the tomboyish, five-months-pregnant
Mimi (
Taryn Manning) -- reunite to dig up a time capsule they buried together as little girls.
Mimi's about to make good on her childhood dreams; she's leaving their small Southern town for hopes of fame and fortune in Los Angeles. Though
Lucy and
Kit are reluctant to join her, they decide to tag along at the last minute, agreeing to be chauffeured by
Mimi's just-out-of-jail friend,
Ben (
Anson Mount). As they trek across the country, plagued by car problems, unsanitary motels, and petty bickering, the three friends reveal meaningful secrets to each other, and
Lucy begins to realize that the handsome, reticent
Ben might just be the guy for her.
