well, only so far that it is about wordy twenty-somethings and has a regular of Stillman’s stock company in a supporting role.
but it’s equally related to a bunch of those mid-nineties independent productions. they’re of the same genre, made around the same time, and have 1 actor in common, so it’s not “waaaay too much like a Whit Stillman film.”
Kicking and Screaming has a lot more in common with a film like Sleep With Me than with a Stillman film in terms of style and common actors.

I enjoyed kicking and screaming but I couldnt help but to not respect it for it’s originality because it was waaaay too much like a Whit Stillman film even down to the actors. Does anybody else see this?
