Review

Rolling Stone, 05/28/1998, p.198, "...Profane fun....Ricci is headed for a stunning future..."

Entertainment Weekly, 10/02/1998, pp.76-7, "...[An] unmitigated hoot....Roos turns every American sterotype...into its opposite and back again with precise comedic timing....[Kudrow] manages to be both ridiculous and endearing, like [the film itself]..." -- Rating: A-

Los Angeles Times, 05/22/1998, p.C2, "...[A] wicked little gem....Nobody does sarcasm better than Ricci, who's growing up to be one of America's most consistently interesting actresses..."

Total Film, 02/01/2001, p.108, "...Ricci, all peroxide and cleavage, is a monster of adolescent cynicism....As star and witty, subversive narrator, it's her film and she's a revelation..."

New York Times, 05/29/1998, p.E14, "...Sharp observations, laceratingly funny dialogue...[and] a secret heart of gold..."

Sight and Sound, 01/01/1999, p.51-2, "...A potent cocktail of scandalous comedy and challenging sexual politics, THE OPPOSITE OF SEX is a delight on every conceivable level..."

Product Notes

Sixteen-year-old Deedee runs away from Louisiana to live with her half-brother Bill, an English teacher who happens to be gay. Lucia, Bill's sexually-repressed best friend, distrusts her. These suspicions are confirmed when Deedee lures Bill's boyfriend into bed and talks him into stealing $10,000 from Bill and running away with her to Los Angeles. To make matters worse for Bill, his bitter ex-lover frames him for sexual harassment, causing a scandal in their quiet town. This forces him and Lucia to go on a wild chase in search of Matt and Deedee in order to clear his name. They are joined by Sheriff Carl Tippett, a friend, who begins to fall in love with Lucia. A black comedy about what people must go through in order to find "the opposite of sex" - lasting, committed, and loving relationships.
