"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME

Little City | 1998 | R | - 4.1.7

Friends and strangers find themselves involved in ever-changing love (and lust) triangles in this romantic drama. Starring Annabella Sciorra, Josh Charles, Jon Bon Jovi, Penelope Ann Miller, Joanna Going and JoBeth Williams.

SEX/NUDITY 4 - Lots of sexual innuendo and passionate kissing (in one scene, two women kiss). It's implied that a woman is performing oral sex on another woman (we briefly see one woman moving underneath the covers while the other woman is breathing heavily). A scantily clad woman unbuttons and unzips a man's pants and kisses his stomach but stops before anything else happens. A man and a woman kiss passionately in bed, and it's implied that they've had sex when we see them in the next scene (they're clothed but still in bed). A woman in a bubble bath appears to be masturbating (we see some movement and her facial expressions). We see a painting of a nude woman (one breast is visible), and we also see a few women in cleavage-revealing tops.

VIOLENCE/GORE 1 - A woman slaps a man, a man throws a glass against a wall and a man throws an object and we hear some glass breaking.

LANGUAGE 7 - About 22 F-words, several anatomical references, many scatological references and several mild obscenities.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Relationships, affairs, betrayal, lesbianism.

MESSAGE - You can't force yourself to love a specific person; you have to listen to your heart, not your head.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
