“Stay The Night” (**1/2 out of four) was a mildly engaging character melodrama about a career-oriented and emotionally guarded woman (Andrea Bang) who encounters a setback at work which prompts her to have a one-night stand with a professional athlete (Joe Scarpellino) but this gets complicated when they both develop a strong bond and feelings for one another. Writer/director Renuka Jeyapalan works in a dreamlike style and mood that holds your interest but can’t transcend film’s pat and predictable story elements which derive from “Before Sunrise” and “Love Story” among others. Bang and Scarpellino’s involving chemistry overall makes this worthwhile and worth “staying” through.
