That Night is a 1992 romantic drama film written and directed by Craig Bolotin, and starring C. Thomas Howell and Juliette Lewis. It is based on the novel of the same name by Alice McDermott. This film is notable for the fact that both Eliza Dushku and Katherine Heigl made their first film appearances in it, sharing a few scenes. Dushku was 11 years old at that time, and Heigl was 13. In 1961 Long Island, Alice Bloom is a ten-year-old girl that is trying to understand how love works. She is infatuated with the girl across the street, 17-year old Sheryl O' Connor . She often looks at her... from across the street, as their bedroom windows are level with each other. Alice starts to copy every detail about Sheryl, including her perfume and the record she listens to. As Alice and her mother pick up her father from work, she notices Sheryl speeding up to the train station to pick up her own father.
