Along the way, she meets Luc (played by Kevin Kline), a charming French thief who has his own agenda. As their paths intertwine, the film explores themes of love, trust, and self-discovery against the picturesque backdrop of Paris and the French countryside. The chemistry between Ryan and Kline, combined with the witty dialogue and scenic locations, makes "French Kiss" a delightful and heartwarming romantic comedy.
