Trivia:
Director Davis Guggenheim's parents, Marion Guggenheim and director Charles Guggenheim, were cast as Derrick's parents but their scene was cut. The brunette that Derrick gets together with at the party had her voice dubbed by the Davis' wife, Elisabeth Shue, because the original actress's voice was not deemed sexy enough.

Goofs:
Miscellaneous: When Beau and Derrick are fighting outside of Naomi's apartment building, they collide with a door beside some greenhouses and plant supplies, and the door cracks against their weight. During the commentary, the actors and director themselves reveal this was a mistake.

"Gossip" barely got noticed when it was released. This reception was possibly due to the generally slow box office of April 2000, but also to the fact that, at times, the film's style compensates for its lack of substance. Still, the film is a fun way to spend a few hours and the screenplay provides a unique story.
The acting is pretty good, especially from the three leads - Lena Headey (Cathy), James Marsden (Derrick) and Norman Reedus (Travis). I saw Headey in some other films after this one, namely "Face" and "Ripley's Game", and was impressed not only by her emotional range, but also by her mastery of accents. Both Marsden and Reedus are better actors than they are given credit for.
The film's style and locales epitomize what I would personally call 'twenty-first century chic'. The loft is ultra cool, and so is the club. In fact, the film is worth seeing for its locales alone.
Overall, a nice little thriller. I give it a 7/10.
