Review of Kissing Jessica Stein (2002) by Gerry M — 15 Jun 2008
A mature look at adult relationships. Failing to find the right man for her Jessica searches for a female friend. It soon blossoms into more, but the film is as simplistic as that. It questions the needs of being labeled with a sexuality and also the key components in a relationship.
It's a wonderful film with well written characters that avoid stereotype, no easy accomplishment with a film filled with gays and jews. Unfortunately not being American, Lesbian or Jewish meant the film did seem rather distant and still suggests that everybody needs somebody to be complete as a man or a woman.
More amusing drama than romantic comedy.
