Angus is fat, dorky and smart, a kid with an uncool pal and a crush on a cheerleader. Angus is funny, rowdy and triumphant, a totally cool movie with a dead-on eye and ear for the hilarious, heartbreaking rite of passage called high school. A great cast (including Academy Award® winners* George C. Scott and Kathy Bates as Angus's oddball family) sparks this story about what happens when Angus is named King of the Winter Ball as a prank - and how he turns humiliation into victory. Angus, Roger Ebert wrote in the Chicago Sun-Times, "delivers a rousing 'up yours' to all the snotty high school golden boys [and] a climax that I, for one, found wholly the equal of anything in Rocky."

Ends 06/30/12. An ode to the days of 'Dawson's Creek' and the mid-90s teen flick, Angus brings the 'fat-kid-overcoming-school-bullies-and-winning-cheerleader's-heart tale' ('Variety') home. When awkward teen Angus wins a degree of popularity, he finds himself in the running to pick up the hottest girl in school...if humiliation or a bully jock don't wind up killing him first!
