Keeping the Faith has two distinct halves. But more on that at the end. :) Edward Norton, making his directorial debut, does an excellent job playing his priest likably and convincingly, as does Ben Stiller in playing his rabbi. Jenna Elfman shines in her role. I would call Norton's "first film" an enjoyable (at times more serious) romantic comedy that easily trumps today's so-called romantic comedies... And now to the two halves: while the first one is guaranteed to make you laugh, the second one will make you think and experience it a bit deeper... The relationship and more serious storyline alternates with the comedy line, but it doesn't end badly... :-) Maybe it never would have been able to. :) ()
Another average and unremarkable smart romantic comedy that boasts a plethora of star names (Miloš Forman is the most surprising) and a solid screenplay. I liked Ben Stiller, for the first time he isn’t making a fool of himself, he plays rather a solid New York rabbi playboy, and it definitely works. Edward Norton, on the other hand, is exactly as I dislike him – a cute know-it-all. There is an attempt to break free from the mediocrity box, but unfortunately it is unsuccessful. ()
Yes, it's a slightly different romantic comedy, but its inclusion in the Women's Film Collection describes it perfectly and doesn't dishonor it. ()
