It is also known as Dead Man's Curve, but was changed to The Curve to avoid confusion with the film Dead Man on Campus, a comedy with a similar pass by catastrophe premise about two college roommates who try to get another to commit suicide.
In the UK and Australia it was released as Dead Man's Curve.

After hearing of a school policy, which says that anyone whose roommate commits suicide gets an automatic 4.0 GPA (see: Pass by catastrophe), Tim and Chris plot to kill Rand and make it look like suicide. After the suicide, Rand's girlfriend Natalie (the roommate of Chris' girlfriend Emma) is distraught and commits suicide as well.

Le père de Jason Smith, sur son lit de mort, lui fait promettre de disperser ses cendres sur la tombe de sa femme, la mère de Jason, morte alors que Jason était encore très jeune. Jason accepte cette requête et doit de ce fait retourner dans le village natal de sa mère, là où elle est enterrée, là où il a lui-même vécu ses premières années mais dont il n'a presque plus aucun souvenir, ayant déménagé avec son père, à la suite de la mort de sa mère. Alors qu'il est dans le cimetière pour accomplir sa promesse, il remarque avec étonnement que presque toutes les tombes indiquent une date de décès identique, le même jour, le même mois, mais avec une année d'écart à chaque fois. Face à cette étonnante constatation, il fouille dans sa mémoire et lui revient alors un souvenir flou d'une loterie particulière qui se tenait dans ce village…

Seymour "Sy" Parrish (Robin Williams) is a photo technician at SavMart's one-hour photo developing clinic. He leads a solitary life outside of the "heaven-like" hyperreality atmosphere of the department store. Every day he labors to ensure his customers get the best quality photos possible. His work is his life, as he has no one and nothing to go home to at the end of each day; he spends his evenings sitting alone in his barren living room, watching television. The only thing in Sy's apartment he has for companionship is a hamster, caged in his bedroom. His favorite customers are the Yorkin family: husband Will (Michael Vartan), wife Nina (Connie Nielsen), and their son Jake (Dylan Smith). He has developed their photos for years and has developed an obsession with the family. He idolizes their happiness and affluence, memorizing every personal detail about them, and begins to associate with them more and more hoping to become a part of their lives.
