In Search of a Midnight Kiss 

December 8th 2010

Alex Holdridge 2008/US           
90 mins
 

A crude, funny and tender take on romance, set in Los Angeles

on New Year's Eve.  Holdridge's script varies between foul-mouthed

bawdiness and  understated  melancholy an odd, but winning

combination to which his small cast do full justice.  A dating service

brings together the two unlikely main characters as they wander

around the city, and few movies have paid a more romantic tribute to

its lines and curves.
