In Search Of A Midnight Kiss shows enough flashes of brightness that its more conventional business is all the more dispiriting.

Alex Holdridge has written and directed a sweet, funny little indie movie.

What follows - walking, talking, flirting, fighting - is a charming piece of low-budget, improv-y filmmaking in the tradition of Richard Linklater's Before Sunrise.

There's enough wit and tenderness here to put many a bloated Hollywood movie to shame.
