Blessed by casual charm and sophisticated wit, Kissing Jessica Stein does for same-sex romance what Annie Hall did for straight neurotics. The influence of Woody Allen is keenly felt on this resourceful New York comedy (expanded from an off-Broadway play), especially when cowriter and costar Jennifer Westfeldt channels Diane Keaton’s “la-di-da” nervousness as Jessica Stein, a romantically frustrated heterosexual copyeditor who impulsively answers a personal ad from a bisexual woman. Helen (cowriter Heather Juergensen) is as relaxed about lesbian love as Jessica is anxious, but they click as lovers, and so does the movie’s delightful exploration of their budding relationship, which is further complicated by Jessica’s yenta-like mother (Tovah Feldshuh) and a former boyfriend (Scott Cohen) who’s now Jessica’s boss. While acknowledging the serious repercussions of Jessica’s bisexual flirtation, Kissing Jessica Stein takes its characters on a smart, compassionate jou (more…)
Kissing Jessica Stein – Lesbian Movie Review
Honest gem of a film – real people navigating intimacy in relationships I really enjoyed this film. It’s funny but in a quiet way. I thought the relationship between Jessica and Helen felt real.
Move Over Woody Allen, You’ve Got Competition I love Woody Allen when he’s on & funny. This movie is like a female Woody Allen. Jennifer Westfeldt (Jessica) & Heahter Juergensen (Helen) co-wrote this funny, fast moving story…
“Annie Hall” wannabe? I enjoyed “Kissing Jessica Stein” on many levels, but couldn’t get beyond the rip-off mannerisms of Jessica to Annie Hall.

Reviews :
Oh, I think that is a very pity. This is a beutiful Movie. They don`t stay together but it`s still worth seeing
Very Cliched, Less-Than-Spectacular
As a guy, when I see the word “lesbian” on a DVD cover…I spring for it. Usually, (in my experience) it’s a pretty stupid movie.
Interesting – Julie Johnson for me was good but had more potential. Nice movie to rent but wouldn’t rush out and buy if I had my time over.
Casey is a longshorewoman who seems to have everything: she lives on a boat with her beautiful social worker girlfriend Alex, and they are very much in love. But there’s nothing like the holidays to bring out the drama of the average family. Casey has rejected her privileged upbringing and restores old boats for a living. What she can’t reject is her deep attachment to her family living just across the bay. When the Olsens come together for Christmas, the unwrapping of presents takes a back seat to the unraveling of emotions. Against the backdrop of the gorgeous New England coast, Director Lauren Himmel tells a tender story of repression and the changing notions of family.
