Heimliche Küsse

This would have been a much stronger, more believable story if it were set in some time and place other than 21st century France. As it is, it is captivating until the end, but because of the setting, there's some sort of uncanny valley effect happening.

The movie is amazing, it is very realistic and you can feel all the emotions so strongly... two young boys that they re in love and they re trying so much to be together, but the society makes it so hard.

The movie teaches you how the society creates you suicidal thoughts, how the ignorance of the people and especially the closest one can mess with your head and make you do some bad things. How can a young man be in the position to make dreams about his future when you cut those dreams before they re even started? Sad people want the others to be sad too but they re people that can change that and instead criticize the others, make them be happy and have the courage to deal with the future and all the ignorance, they can smile together...

The movie is amazing, so many messages, it was a pleasure to see this movie and it worth your time 100% ...

This an amazing / wonderful movie.

Of course, it sounds very french: Patrick Timsit and all actors are playing as (credible) french parents, school and references are located. But, in all the ways I expected it to be, it sounds right, as well in the feeling of having to comply to adults' expectations than in the internal mood, so different from the exposed one. In a first stage, I totally disliked Louis and then felt "in love" with him. He acts totally right, attracted both to what he thinks right and to what he feels right. This movie enlightens the dual pressure much gays are enduring. Thanks to all actors for their acts their.

The story is amazing and really speaks to t he struggles of gay youth and the pressures they face from their peers and families. I was starting to think the ending would be another sad tale that has been done hundreds of times before but it really ended on a high note. The whole production from the script to the cinematography to the acting was expertly done. A rare gem.

My expectations were pretty low when I fisrt found this movie, I hadn't heard about it and it seems not many people have either. To my surprise, it's a beautiful and so well done movie. Yes, it's about the drama of being gay, coming out, being accepted, finding love... however, Hidden Kisses (French: Baisers cachés) tells us a story of two boys, at first focusing in one of them, and as the movie goes around, the second one is wisely included in the script - and all you can feel is your inner wish for them to be ok, to be loved, to love. Plus the movie brings awareness of the fact that homophobia and bullying are still present in the French schools, and surely in many other countries. And it needs to be discussed, there could be no space for hate and discrimination against love, specifically LGBTQ love. Kudos for the director and specially the cast, great story! LOVE IS FOR EVERYONE!
