Speechless
There are two sides to every relationship… Don't trust either of them. Michael Keaton and Geena Davis are a winning duo in this romantic comedy that proves that opposites can attract. Smart, sexy and side-splittingly funny, Speechless provides great entertainment.
It was a match made in heaven… almost. Two witty, intelligent insomniacs, Kevin (Keaton) and Julia (Davis) meet over the last box of sleeping pills at an all-night convenience store and are immediately attracted.
They share an evening of passion and romance and discover that they have a lot in common… maybe too much. When they learn that they're both speechwriters – but for opposing political compaigns – the sweethearts quickly move from speechless to ruthless and drop the pillow talk for serious verbal jabbing. But the more they stab each other in the back and insult each other directly, the more they realise that true love doesn't follow along party lines.
Critic Reviews:
- " This is intelligent romantic comedy of the kind we get all too seldom these days, and the plot is something Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn would have loved in their prime. " – Chris Hicks
- " It comes down to the charms of Keaton and Davis in the end. You like these characters and root for them to score. " – Marjorie Baumgarten
- " Director Ron Underwood keeps the film humming along with one surprise after another. " – Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
