Three of Hearts (1993)

Pretty Good

Absolutely Fantastic

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Those three words are the only way I can describe this movie. This movie was supposed to be about lesbians? where was the kissing etc? Kelly Lynch is fabulous in the Showtime series "The L Word" as Ivan so I expected to see her playing a believable lesbian. This was not the case with this character. The Baldwin brother had a look on his face the whole movie like he was half asleep. The script was predictable and anticlimactic. Soundtrack was okay (thanks Joe Jackson). If you have insomnia, watch this, you'll fall asleep. I tried to give this movie a chance, almost turned it off after 50 min, but I stuck it out hoping it would get better. It didn't. Don't waste your time on this flop.

I didn't expect much of Three of Hearts; indications were that it was something of a dog, and both Billy Baldwin and Sherilyn Fenn aren't exactly reknowned for their choice of projects. So I was quite pleasantly surprised that the film turned out to be a savvy, passably witty little comedy. The locations are well used and both Baldwin and Fenn turn in entertaining performances. Towering above them, though, is Kelly Lynch. Funny, sassy and utterly adorable, she fits the part like a glove, and turns the potentially least interesting role of the threesome into a character to treasure. Inevitably, the film suffers a little when she is offscreen.6.5/10

This movie had three of the most important things to look for in a film. It was full of cute guys and gals. I mean, no one on Earth is better looking than Billy Baldwin. Plus the two leading ladies are absolutely gorgeous. It had fun little jokes that were repeated throughout the movie. Plus the plot was totally twisted. A girl who is bi-sexual, Ellen, breaks up with her girlfriend, Connie, who then hires a male escort, Joe, to go to her sister's wedding. They finish the "date" and go back to his place to find it vandalized by a ex-con. Connie takes Joe back to her place and tells him he can stay there. While he's there he can help Connie get Ellen back. From there on out it gets really twisted. Every one needs to see this movie.

Lesbian lover tries to win back the girl she loves and it's a male prostitute that will help accomplish this ?!This movie portrays love being universal in a way it can go from lesbian (in)to hetero and that, whatever you are, the feelings of love and despair are equal.That is exactly why I liked this movie. Not because there was much to laugh about or the value of "reality" or "morality".
