The Kiss (2003)

This touching tale begins as a keen-eyed book editor sifts through a selection of dusty manuscripts which have been left behind in her new office. Drawn to one in particular, she is entranced by the passionate love story that leaps from the pages in front of her. However, the story remains unfinished, so she embarks on a trip to find the author. On finding him, she is dismayed to find a broken man. Shattered after the death of his wife, the now elderly writer is encouraged to finish his words, forming a close bond between himself and his would-be publisher. But there's a twist in the tale, which allows director Gorman Bechard to effectively muse on the subject of true love, and what it really means.

Vincent and Joey have been painfully estranged ever since Vincent divorced Joey's mother and left the decaying boardwalks of Long Beach, Long Island for the anonymity of Manhattan and a successful career with the NYPD. He lives his life in solitude, keeping his girlfriend at arm's length; the closest relationship he maintains is with his partner, Reg - and Vincent makes sure that friendship stops at the precinct door. As long as Vincent lives in the protection of the present, he doesn't have to deal with the pain of his past - or his sorrow over his broken relationship with Joey. But this murder investigation is drawing Vincent home to Long Beach, the self-proclaimed "City by t! he Sea," where the past has been waiting for him to return. The agonizing memory that has tortured him all his life - the death of his father, a convicted murderer who was executed when Vincent was just a boy - still plagues him. In the course of the investigation, he discovers that his own unresolved pain and failures as a father have deeply influenced Joey's life, and the destructive choices he has made. As a cop, Vincent must bring a criminal to justice; as a father he must find a way to save his son. Now he will put his life on the line in order to do right by both his family and his profession.
