Flirting (1991)
8/10
"Do you mind if we just kiss and touch a bit..."

I agree with the one guy who commented on this movie before me in that it is deep and thought provoking. Why does it seem like the US only produces superficial muck and that many of the interesting movies are foreign? What does that say about us Americans? Getting back to the movie, immediately you know that a movie with a plot interlaced with the teachings of Sartre cannot disappoint you. Flirting is about a young, interracial couple (African girl and white American boy) experiencing love despite the obstacles placed before them. They endure in spite of the restrictions placed on them at school and the political pressures she faces in her homeland. I enjoyed the film. Many of the characters are complex and it is interesting watching them go through the experiences of youth as they come to know love and themselves.
