| | THE ART OF KISSING by Hugh Morris - THE FRENCH "SOUL" KISS |
 | | And, it is because of the fact that they dropped Puritanism many years ago, that they were able to perfect themselves in the art of love and, particularly, in the art of kissing. | | | That is why this kiss was called the "soul" kiss by the French who were said to be the first people to have perfected it. | | | There has been attributed to John Ruskin, an old fogy of a philosopher if ever there was one, a request from him to a young lady friend of his that she "kiss him not sometimes but continually." Still another poet wrote: |

| | Guy de Maupassant : The Kiss |
| | Vain attempts of love to unite souls through a kiss. | | | Yes, the meeting of lips is the most perfect, the most divine sensation given to human beings, the supreme limit of happiness: It is in the kiss alone that one sometimes seems to feel this union of souls after which we strive, the intermingling of hearts, as it were. | | | All three of us were together in the drawing-room, and, as you did not stand on ceremony before me, your husband was holding you on his knees and kissing you at great length on the neck, the lips and throat. |

| | Forbidden Love |
| | She sees that love in his smile, eyes, kiss and that makes me think that that love was not forbidden by other people, but by the one she loves. | | | Here she says that she doesn't care if it is right of wrong to feel that love, and that she has the intention to enjoy that love till it lasts, to take all of him, all of his fake love inside of her and enjoy it as if it was real... | | | Now she sees forbidden love in his eyes, a love that exists but a love that she can not have, like the forbidden apple that Eva longed for, like the forbidden love that Anna had for her lover. |

| | French Kiss Movie Review - MovieWeb |
| | French Kiss actually manages to make a decent statement about love and happiness, bringing to light the truth of the old adage, "There is no substitute for experience." The film is also believable despite its outlandish main characters, whom Ryan and Kline portray with wonderful emotion and with an amazing flair for comic timing. | | | When her fiance falls in love with a beautiful French woman in Paris, Kate follows him to the city of Light to win him back. | | | Redeeming the genre from last week's dismal While You Were Sleeping, Meg Ryan and Kevin Kline manage to deliver hilarious and surprisingly touching performances in French Kiss. |

| | The Kiss |
| | The unstoppable force of his seduction is the chief momentum of ``The Kiss,'' which after a while begins to take on the numbing internal logic of the damned. | | | No such quasi-artistic armor exists in ``The Kiss,'' which is a searing, deadpan chronicle of a horrid story: For several years, beginning when Harrison (her married name) was 20, she had a blinding, all-consuming sexual relationship with her biological father, who had left her and her mother when the girl was an infant. | | | Kathryn Harrison's "The Kiss," a memoir of her incestuous relationship with her father, is the latest, and perhaps the best, example of such a polarizing work. |

| | Review: Prelude to a Kiss |
| | One can successfully argue that, in a strange way, Prelude to a Kiss follows the traditional pattern of a romance: the characters meet, fall in love, are torn apart by plot complications, then find their way back to each other in the end. | | | One obvious issue addressed by Prelude to a Kiss (and it's provocative, albeit far from original) is the unimportance of physical appearance to the notion of true love. | | | The foundation of Prelude to a Kiss is the strength of the relationship between Peter and Rita, regardless of which body she occupies. |

| | This is a beautiful allegory about the nature of love and the commitment to give oneself in sickness and health, for better or worse, to achieve a true meeting of the spirits. | | | Once Baldwin figures out that something is amiss with the Mrs., he must track down the old man, in whom resides the spirit of his true love. | | | Oh, and another thing, the story isn't really about the 'prelude' of 'a' kiss, it is the prelude AND aftermath of 'the' kiss. |

| | One of my favorites is when William Holden and Kim Novak are dancing without touching in "Picnic." I adore the "You dance while I play" scene with Alan Ricman and Juliet Stevenson in "Truly, Madly, Deeply." Tom Burlinson and Sigrid Thornton's first kiss in "The Man From Snowy River" was superbly filmed. | | | All of the love scenes with Marianne Dashwood and John Willoughby. | | | i love the movie Entropy, the whole thing gets to me, especially the part where they go out and make their movie of them running around the park just completely in love and he watches it through out the movie when he missses her. |

| | Learning Commons - What is Culture? - Learned Behaviors - The Kiss |
| | This type of kiss, usually applied quickly to each side of the face, goes beyond social symbolism to a politcal symbolism -- it signifies goodwill on the part of both parties. | | | Another popular theory about the origins of osculation is that kissing arose from various gestures symbolizing the fusion or union of souls. | | | One theory popular among anthropologists suggests that kissing is a derivative of a much older practice called "premastication"; premastication is when an adult, frequently a mother, chews food and then transfers the soft, premasticated food into the mouth of an infant or young child (Wickler 237). |

| | Prelude to a Kiss Movie Review at Hollywood Video |
| | Thankfully, that's not the case for Prelude to a Kiss — a thoughtful, magical romantic dramedy that pre-dates most of Baldwin's attempts to simultaneously be both himself and a cartoon of himself. | | | We watch Peter and Rita face that fear head-on and triumph over it because Peter is able to pass the ultimate test of love: He recognizes Rita not by her lithe body, long blond hair, and sweet smile, but by the unique collection of experiences, views, and neuroses that really make her who she is. | | | Prelude to a Kiss is a pretty bare-bones affair on DVD — the only extras are the original theatrical trailer and previews of other Fox movies on DVD. |
