Tonight Anthology Film Archives is screening Jim Heneghan's documentary KISS I Love You. For ten years the filmmaker followed Kiss fans capturing all the idol-worship, disappointments, and rivalries between various fans and tribute bands, and emerged with a film that treats its subject remarkably even-handedly.It reveals the band who've always said they put their fans first as cold and profit-hungry, but more importantly shows a remarkable devotion among fans to the self-proclaimed "hottest band in the land". It's an affectionate portrait of some of the faithful who turned fandom into a lifestyle, even a career - and of the not always gratifying consequences when the worshipers and the worshiped cross paths.
