1982 Barry Levinson film starring Steve Guttenberg, Daniel Stern, Mickey Rourke, Kevin Bacon, Timothy Daly, Ellen Barkin, and Paul Reiser. Set in 1959, it...well, it doesn't "follow" so much as "hangs out with" six Baltimore guys who've been friends all their lives and are trying to cope with the pressures and responsibilities of adulthood. Their haven is the local diner where they eat copious amounts of french fries and gravy and debate issues like whether Mathis or Sinatra is better music to make out to. Levinson has a terrific ear for dialogue, and this film is very good at capturing the feel of those late night, post-adolescent bull sessions with one's pals.
