Mystic Pizza

Mystic Pizza

In MYSTIC PIZZA, three young women, sisters Daisy (Julia Roberts) and Kat (Annabeth Gish) and their friend Jojo (Lili Taylor), work at a pizza parlor in the seaside town of Mystic, Connecticut, during the summer after their high-school graduation. Jojo wants to stay in Mystic and take over the pizza parlor someday, but is unsure about whether she really wants to marry her high-school sweetheart. Kat is headed for Yale, but stops to have an affair with an older architect whose child she babysits, while Daisy has visions of marrying a rich man and moving up in the world. Donald Petrie's film is a charming, kindhearted tale that features early screen appearances by Roberts, Taylor, and Gish.
