Film. The Last Kiss: Relationships aren't easy. The Last Kiss explores challenging aspects of committement, family and responsibility through the eyes of Zach Braff's character who is about to be 30. At various points the movie is emotionally harsh. It's one fight after the other. But, stay with it. The messaging get's progressively stronger and delivers. It's easy to say you love someone, but more importantly it's what you do with that emotion that matters.

Overall, "The film is about turning a major corner in your life: settling down and starting a family, while still clutching on to everything that was free, innocent, and fun about being young," says Zach Braff. "What we had the opportunity to do with this movie was to make a comic drama about contemporary relationships that's really funny, very sexy, and, most importantly, real," states Tony Goldwyn - the movie's director. "The screenplay takes a refreshing and rather edgy look at the ideals we have about what we imagine we want in our life partners, how we see our lives going, and what we expect to achieve at various stages of our lives. Somehow life never quite works out like the ideal we envision. What do you do when life happens to you?" [Out now on DVD]
