Review
She's
a foul-mouthed tramp who can wrap just about anyone around her
finger. She steals dead people's ashes and sleeps with gay hunks and
religious fanatics with equal indifference. She's Dedee Truitt
(Christina Ricci) and she's not your typical sweet 16-year-old.
Escaping her rotten Louisianna life, Dedee flees to the surburan
Indiana home of her gay half-brother Bill (Martin Donovan) where she
proceeds to seduce his live-in boyfriend Matt (Ivan Sergei), steal
$10,000 and lead a cast of devious characters on a frenetic
cross-country chase to L.A. Bill is joined in hot pursuit by an
embittered spinster (Lisa Kudrow), a love-torn local sheriff (Lyle
Lovett) and Matt's jilted ex-lover (Johnny Galecki). Writer-Director
Don Roos' film has a gnarled wisdom about modern romance - straight
and gay - which makes The Opposite of Sex a sharp, wickedly funny
look at life and sex in the 90s.
