Synopsis
Keeping the Faith (2000) is a romantic comedy you can watch online on iFILM. It marks Edward Norton's directorial debut, with Norton also starring as Catholic priest Brian and Ben Stiller as Rabbi Jake. The two have been close since childhood, and now they run neighboring congregations on Manhattan's Upper West Side.
Everything tilts when Anna Reilly walks back into town. Played by Jenna Elfman, she was the third kid in their old trio and has returned to New York as a sharp corporate executive. Both men fall for her. The catch is brutal: Brian is bound by his vow of celibacy, and Jake is expected to marry within his faith. What follows is an awkward, warm, slightly absurd love triangle.
The supporting cast includes Anne Bancroft, Eli Wallach, and director Milos Forman in a small role. Norton keeps the tone playful, letting faith and desire pull his characters in opposite directions without ever turning preachy. Stream Keeping the Faith (2000) online on iFILM.
