Just a Kiss (DVD)

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.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseWidescreenAudio: Dolby Digital 2.0 - EnglishInteractive Features: Interactive Menus Scene Selection

Lady of Burlesque (DVD) » Lady of Burlesque (DVD)

The behind-the-scenes shenanigans of a burlesque show set the stage for this mixture of comedy, music, sex appeal, and murder. While sardonic comedian Biff Brannigan (Michael O'Shea) constantly hits on lead stripper Dixie Daisy (Barbara Stanwyck), she continually rejects his lascivious advances. She, after all, is too busy thinking about her potential stardom. Meanwhile, as the characters who populate Biff and Dixie's workplace reveal ugly competitive streaks, someone is found strangled with a G-string. Then a second victim falls prey to the mysterious killer. Biff and Dixie soon realize that they have only each other to trust in the search for the killer's identity. William Wellman's usual outstanding direction, along with lush production numbers, keeps the whole thing sprightly. The film's music was justly nominated for an Academy Award for Best Score. The story is based on the novel THE G-STRING MURDERS by Gypsy Rose Lee.DVD Features:Region 1Snap CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital Mono - English
