Early Adaptor

This month, Alex Holdridge’s black-and-white romantic comedy, In Search of a Midnight Kiss, opens in the United States following runs in the United Kingdom and Greece. Scoring a 90 percent approval rating at Rottentomatoes.com, the movie follows two cynics who go on a New Year’s Eve blind date after meeting online. The entire story unfolds over the course of 24 hours, but the journey for writer-director Holdridge adds up to 12 years in the indie film trenches. (via wired.com)
