Six Degrees of Seperation

I just seen this last night, and it has to be the best film Will Smith has taken part in.

I thought it was like a dinner conversation on film, my brother thought it was jazz as film. Very good.

Anyone seen it/know of it? I'd never heard of it before.

I have never heard of it. Is it older or newer?

I've never heard of it either. Is it really better than Enemy of the State? Cause that was pretty dang good. It has a cool name. Awaiting more info.

It was released in 93, and that's pretty much all I know, I'll look up imdb later if someone doesn't beat me to it.

Hmm, was it before or after "Bad Boys" then?

Flan and Ouisa Kittredge, rich NYC art dealers, are called on one night by a young man, Paul, who professes to be a friend of their kids' from Harvard. They offer him a bed for the night; he enchants them with a home-cooked meal and magnificent conversation. The next morning, they learn that he is not all he seems to be. Their investigations are intriguing and lead them to re-evaluate their lives.

From IMBD. Basically, Will Smith plays a character who resorts to any means to gain entry to the highest level of New York society, and is unmasked as mentally unstable as the film progresses.

Interestingly for a modern film, homosexuality is portrayed as damaging, but bigotry against it is also criticised.
