 | ...forget the kiss, forget the Hot Fun symbolic scene, forget the 'love and lost love' thing. This and the more recent 'Lost in Translation' has a person searching for the reason we live. This one more or less gives the solution. 'Lost'leaves it up to you. See both side by side to see what I mean. |
| Rating | | | Date | January 26, 2005 | | Summary | Eddie Cibrian as a masseur. | Content
| The only reason to see this film is the provocative massage scenes between Holly Hunter and Eddie Cibrian . Eddie Cibrian was a lead actor in the now-gone NBC soap opera, "Sunset Beach", and in this film, we certainly gave him a "third watch". |

| This is so well written and very funny. It reminds me of how people really think to themselves. It blends drama, humor and fantasy. Who would of thought to put Holly Hunter and Danny Devito together? And Queen Latifa is fabulous as a night club jazz singer. See it! |
| Rating | | | Date | November 24, 2003 | | Summary | Fabulous Lesbian Dance Scene.. | Content
| The plot is simple, but the movie itself is so much more complex. Holly Hunter recently is dumped by her husband for another woman. She never had her own friends, as all of her friends were her husband's friends. So, she finds herself absurdly alone. She sits in restaurants alone fantasizing that other people invite her over to their table. She fantasizes about striking up conversations with strangers, when she actually is too timid to.
With nobody to answer to, she starts going out on the town at night by herself. She begins to meet all kinds of wonderful and bizaare people. Night club singer Queen Latifah gives her a hit of 'Ecstasy', and she finds herself entering a gay bar in one of the most sensual and memorable dance scenes you will ever see on film.
She then realizes the confinement that marriage has given her. That there is so much living out there. She becomes a new person and once again pursues the dreams she had before she gave them up to be the doctor's wife.
**Fabulous Movie**
It is all about learning to live again. |

| I first saw this film at the movies in 1998. That "movie moment" described by Mr. Smith, the dance scene at the night club, has remained etched in my memory for the past 5 years. The sensuality of that moment, and the song that they chose to play with it, is just incredible. That's what got me to rent the movie this weekend, and I'm probably going to buy it. As a matter of fact, the music is so good in this film that I rushed out to buy the soundtrack right after I left the movie theater. Queen Latifah is fantastic with her singing and acting, and Holly Hunter looks spectacular and does a spectacular job. There are some real nice scenes with her internal dialogue. Wonderful film! |
