Strangers Kiss is a 1983 American drama film directed by Matthew Chapman, and starring Peter Coyote, Victoria Tennant, Dan Shor and Blaine Novak. The screenplay by Chapman and Novak documents the behind-the-scenes of Stanley Kubrick's second directorial feature, Killer's Kiss (1955).
The film premiered at the Montreal World Film Festival on August 24, 1983 and the Toronto International Film Festival on September 17 before being theatrically distributed in select markets by Orion Classics on February 1, 1984.
Plot
To help his actress girlfriend regain her confidence, a Hollywood bigshot bankrolls a small film being made by a first-time producer and director duo. Despite the hand-to-mouth way it is made, the film turns out well, as does the off-set relationship between the actress and her unknown male lead.
