Bulletproof Heart: Fortunate hit guy LaPaglia gets a job he's not really cut out for.

Singles: Life in the Seattle dating scene isn?t simple. This is an energetic comedy drama with some appealing performances (particularly by-Scott and Sedgwick), however by no means as enlightening as you wish it can be.

Cast includes Bridget Fonda, Matt Dillon, Campbell Scott, Kyra Sedgwick, Sheila Kelley, Jim Real, Bill Pullman, James Le Gros, Devon Raymond, Camllo Gallardo, Friend Stroller, Jeremy Piven, Paul Giamatti, and Tim Burton. (99 minutes, 1992)
