IFC steals Holdridge's 'Kiss'

November 01, 2007 On the eve of its Saturday AFI Fest screening, IFC Entertainment nabbed all North American rights to writer-director Alex Holdridge's romantic comedy "In Search of a Midnight Kiss." "Alex Holdridge and his incredibly talented collaborators have created one of the discoveries of the year, which might bring to mind such generational comedies as Swingers or the humor of vintage Woody Allen, but it's a complete original," IFC Entertainment president Jonathan Sehring said. The film premiered at this spring's Tribeca Film Festival and had its international premiere at the Edinburgh Film Festival, where it was named "Best of the Fest."
