Description:
Directed by Fisher Stevens with a sharply witty script from writer Patrick Breen, who also stars as the film's antihero, Pete, JUST A KISS is a smart, hip black comedy with an energetic soundtrack, a sexy cast, and expert use of digital animation. The first scenes, while the credits are still rolling, are some of the most dramatic in the film simply because of the near total use of brightly colored, graffiti-like animation. After those first sequences, the animation is used only for emphasis on certain details, or to depict fantasies, and the film takes on a more traditional style. JUST A KISS follows a group of friends--couples Dag (Ron Eldard) and Hallie (Kyra Sedgewick), Pete (Patrick Breen) and Rebecca (Marley Shelton), Andre (Taye Diggs) and Colleen (Sarita Choudhury), and the one black sheep, Paula (Marisa Tomei); as they learn the hard way that a kiss is never just a kiss. The film's themes of constant, inevitable infidelity and constant, inevitable sex are played out so obviously that the result is hilarious, cruel, and poignant. In addition, the imagination behind some of the gags in the film is nothing short of brilliant. JUST A KISS is a must-see comedy that will keep audience members smirking long after the movie ends. This film screened in May 2001 as part of the Gen Art Film Festival in New York City.
