Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions has acquired North American rights to Jonathan Kasdan's romance "The First Time," the company said Wednesday.
The movie is about a couple of high school students, Dave, a senior about to graduate, and Aubrey, a junior who goes to a different school. They start a casual conversation when they meet at a party, but over the course of a weekend, their relationship becomes more intimate and complicated than expected.
