         Reviewer:  Krista Sullivan                      Correct/Add Info                Review this movie!

All events happen in real time; the whole film was shot in 90 minutes, 1 take. To make it more interesting, it was shot with 4 seperate views of 4 seperate events all being shown at the same time on a quartered screen. Many subplots and characters all revolving around an movie audition. Salma Hayek plays a struggling actress and Jeanne Tripplehorn is her rich Suger Mama. Tripplehorn is very jelous and suspects Hayek of fooling around on her. Tripplehorn devises a plan to spy on her and catch her in the act.

Actresses:
Salma Hayek & Jeanne Tripplehorn


The kiss takes place in the limo on the way to the audition, Tripplehorn challenges Hayek's loyalty and to prove herself, Hayek lays a big wet one on Tripplehorn. It is strong and intense for a brief moment. Kudos to Hayek for grabbing Tripplehorn's head and pulling her in and her attacking Tripplehorn's mouth. Unfortunately, it shows very little love and ends right there.

Actresses:
Saffron Burrows & Leslie Mann


In a sub plot, Burrows and Mann do some coke together and end up at one of their homes to do some more coke. As they sit there stoned on the couch, they have a brief, uninspired kiss, but look pretty doing it.

Lena:
The DVD contains two versions of the same film. In the second one the Hayek's and Tripplehorn's kiss takes a long time. Both in turn break away from it but the other always pulls the other one back to the kiss. After the makeout session Hayek rests on Tripplehorn's lap and she strokes her hair.
Imo, Hayek and Tripplehorn share great chemistry and their on-screen relationship steals all the attention from the rest of the characters and events in the movie. Hayek is very beautiful and Tripplehorn's acting in this movie is absolutely awsome.
