It turns out that the beach local is more oriented toward the adults having fun than the kids, so Duncan wanders off and meets a big brother type named Owen (Sam Rockwell), who manages a water park and takes the kid under his wing. Owen has a smart alec attitude that masks his heart of gold. He begins to work toward getting Duncan out of his shell. I think that the strength of this movie, which played in a limited amount of theatres is how easy it is to relate to the characters.
