KISSING JESSICA STEIN
Jessica Stein (Jennifer Westfeldt) can’t seem to find he right man, so she answers a personal ad… from a woman (Heather Juergensen). Kissing Jessica Stein is a nice spin on the usual contemporary single woman story, a kind of lesbian Bridget Jones’ Diary. Strong performances from Westfeldt and Juergensen reveal real warmth and growth in their characters, and even throw a few curveballs at the viewer. Good dialogue, first-rate acting and a compelling bittersweet story make Kissing Jessica Stein a must see.
