Goth gal seeks love in the Big Easy,
By Amaranth "music fan" (Northern California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Price Of Kissing (VHS Tape)
Pauley Perrette is more famous for her current role on NCIS as the Goth gal who helps the team solve murder mysteries. In this movie,she's a Goth gal in the Big Easy seeking love. She finds love with the help of a voodoo priestess and the words of wisdom of the late Lou Rawls. Jazz music and poetry are important to the plot (though the poet she briefly falls in love with constantly mumbles and stares at the ground,occasionally baring his chest)There's a love triangle (involving Pauley's roommate),and numerous love scenes in a bathtub surrounded by candles (a fire hazard,definitely)
It's magical realism. The acting is soap opera-ish and campy;the script is okay. However, its sense of magic keeps the plot aflame and the interracial love relationships are portrayed not for sensationalism but as an ordinary part of love. It's not a big deal that Pauley falls for an African-American man,the big deal is she's getting amorous with her roommate's boyfriend. "The Price of Kissing" is good cheap fun! It's a sensually delicious romantic jambalaya. |
