The Book of Love
The Book of Love stars Bug Hall, Kevin M. Horton, Brandon Hardesty, Beth Behrs,
Melanie Papalia, Jennifer Holland, and Eugene Levy. In this movie, three students at East Great
Falls High School, Rob (Hall), Nathan (Horton), and Lube (Hardesty), are virgins who are trying
to lose their virginity. The three have specific girls they do want to have sex with - Rob has
had feelings for one of his closest friends, Heidi (Behrs), but has been too afraid to admit
his feelings to her; Nathan has a steady girlfriend, Dana (Papalia), but Dana will not have sex
with him because she believes in chastity until marriage; Lube has been trying to hook up with
Ashley (Holland), a cheerleader, but Lube is willing to have sex with any girl at this point.
One night, at a Hawaiian-themed school dance, Rob finally decides to tell Heidi how he feels about her, after earlier convincing Heidi to try to give up her virginity, which she had been pondering for a while herself. Rob is to meet Heidi in the school library, but when he goes there, he finds Heidi attempting to have sex with another guy. Rob had been carrying a torch with him, and upon seeing this, he drops the torch, setting some library books on fire and activating the fire sprinklers. As punishment for his actions, Rob and Heidi are sentenced to clean up the library and restore it to pre-fire condition, coming in on Saturdays to do this. On his first day of cleaning, Rob comes across a book detailing experiences of past East Great Falls students' attempts to get laid. Rob thinks he, Nathan, and Lube can benefit from this book, but it has awful advice, because, what had worked for past students may not necessarily work for everyone. Rob then decides he, Nathan, and Lube should just be honest with any girl they'd like to sleep with in order to get laid, and they put this to the test at a party. Neither virgin gets lucky at the party: Rob does muster up the courage to tell Heidi he really likes her and finds that Heidi feels the same way about him, but, at the party, he finds her in bed with another (although he later finds out Heidi did not have sex); Nathan nearly scores with Dana, but she catches herself at the last minute and becomes disgusted with him; Lube makes up some nonsense about satisfying women to try to land Allison, but she refuses to sleep with him; he nearly has sex with another girl, but she finds out Lube had already announced his getting laid before it even happens, so she turns him down. The virgins decide to attempt to reconstruct the book they now refer to as the "bible," seeing as Rob's library incident had rendered most of it unreadable. They find out that the person who had started the "bible" is Noah Levenstein (Levy), the owner of a carpet warehouse. Noah and the virgins contact all the other people who are named on an index card in the "bible," and they eventually succeed in completely restoring the book. Along the way, the virgins learn that the biggest secret to getting laid is to treat a girl with respect. Rob, Nathan, and Lube eventually do follow this advice correctly, and they succeed in having sex with their respective love interests. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
