200 CIGARETTES (1999)
It's 11:59 on New Year's Eve. Do you know where your date is?

200 Cigarettes tells the story of a collection of 20-somethings on New Years Eve, 1981 in East Greenwich Village, New York. They are all making their way to a party held by Monica, whilst trying to sort out their problems. Cindy is out on a date with Jack, who she had a one-night stand with. Hoping for a relationship, Cindy is upset when she finds out that Jack is commitment-phobic. Her New Year doesn't turn out to be as bad as she thought when she meets another of the party-goers...

KATE SAYS...
» "We shot there (East Village, NYC) the whole time. It's so scary down there. You know, especially because we were always filming at night. Late, late night when all the freaky people come out. During the day, it was great. There was such a good vibe down there. But in the '80s, it was apparently really crazy."


REVIEWS
SFGate.com: "One of the few nonsmoking characters is played by Kate Hudson, making her feature debut as a sweet, klutzy, accident-prone woman who demolishes every place she's in. Hudson, the daughter of Goldie Hawn, is fascinating to watch. She looks nothing like Hawn . . . until she starts talking. Then she looks exactly like her."
NYTimes.com: "Kate Hudson, who is Goldie Hawn's daughter and has her mother's grin and giggle, makes her feature debut adorably despite being asked to spend part of the movie with dog excrement on her coat."
Crazy4Cinema.com: "To begin with, there's just so many characters, you never get to know any of them very well. They are all caricatures with no depth whatsoever. The only one who stands out as a decent human being is Kate Hudson. "

TRIVIA

WORTH WATCHING FOR...
... a good ensemble film. Despite it's poor reviews from critics , I have always enjoyed watching this film, and like the multiple character storylines (some of which are better than others). It's a bit quirky and has it's funny moments. Kate puts in a good performance as the very klutzy yet loveable Cindy, and this film is worth seeing for her.
