Kyss mig - Une histoire suédoise

YES, undoubtedly this is the one of the best romantic, emotional, touchy movie I have ever seen in my life.Amazing performance by Mia and Frida, magnificent landscape of Sweden and fluency and realness in every scene made me impatient, excited and happy throughout the film.The film is not just about a love story between two woman, it is also struggle for today's people who believe in true love.

On the one side Mia (Ruth Vega Fernandez) is a bit shy with Frida as normally at the beginning in their relationship.But after seeing honesty, warmth, sincerity in Frida's eyes, she began to look differently and gave her love for the Frida especially with her spectacular eyes.

On the other side Frida( Liv Mjönes) draws a character who is not afraid of being seen by everyone for her love for woman and she was also insistent about the possibility of a real love between tho woman.Moreover she also abandoned from her girlfriend and expected it from Mia in the same way.For this reason we see many Fridas in our today's world.

To sum up, love is everywhere and can be in every way and no one prevent it in real life.

I don't see how anyone could rate this movie poorly. It had a great plot and great actors. Too many times have I seen movies like this and they always turn out bad so it was great to see one that didn't follow the majority. Personally I found the actress that played Mia amazingly talented. She is able to show every emotion just through her big beautiful eyes. Throughout the movie her face would be devoid of any expression but her eyes showed everything. It was great. The only reason I gave a 9 out of 10 is because I speak English so I had to read subtitles and that takes away a bit from the greatness of the movie. I recommend it highly and you won't be disappointed.

Cons: English subtitles

Pros: Ruth Vega Fernandez (Mia) was exceptional. The playfulness between Mia and Frida. Basically everything was great about the movie. Even the cute kid brother Oskar and the fiancé.

Kiss Me will tear your heart in pieces.

Films with a lesbian theme are often designed to make you root for the women in love, without any reservations. You are certain of the pair from the beginning. Imagine Me and You, a classic movie of this theme, even has you rooting for a marriage to end and an innocent man's heart to be broken.

Kiss Me doesn't romanticize the struggle these people go through. It shows the love, the passion and, most importantly, the pain. The pain of denying who you are and the pain of being betrayed and losing who you thought you were going to spend your life with. Because Kiss Me doesn't take these things lightly, my heart was breaking for each of the characters. As the story progresses with beauty and grace and without the rushed feeling of many love at first sight type movies, Mia starts to realize that there is only one way. Despite the sacrifices and the pain, there is one thing she has to do - And I bet you will find yourself realizing it with her.

Apart from the story being told with grace, beauty and a passion for every single character, the film is beautifully shot in the amazing scenery of the Scandinavian countries. An instant classic in movies with a lesbian theme, but a must see for everyone with a for romantic movies.

Love is love and every one have the right to love. It's a breathe taking movie about following ones heart and not necessarily following the "norm" or what is expected from us. The trailer doesn't do justice to how beautifully it was shot and how fantastic the acting was. Liv Mjönes and Ruth Vega Fernandez gives a prime example of brilliant acting. It was subtle, sweet, natural and believable. The story is solid and identifiable. The movie is gaining ground and will probably be distributed/shown in USA soon. I suggest seeing it/buying it. Absolutely great film. Overall, this is beautiful story with great acting.

Without much stash around it, it tells a love story anybody can relate to or believe in. That they are lesbians, to me a plus, has nothing to do with the story - it's a love story. It helps that it's Swedish - such a great language - and so far from Hollywood.

A lot of great lesbian love stories has been made around the world in the last 20 years: Intimates (China), Fire (India), Produceing Adults (Finland), Between Two Women (GB), Aimée & Jaguar (Germany), I Can't Think Straight (Middleeastern, but UK) and (of course) Imagine You and me (UK) - not to mention all the rest from eastern Europe, Malaisia, Japan and South America - and all the other countries who are breaking the boundaries. Cudos to you all.

But "Kyss Mig" kind of beats them all of the above for me because of it's honesty. All hypocrisy was set aside - it was what it was and people got hurt. I like that. To me that's life. Get a few blows - give a few blows. We are what we are - we do what we do.

The two leads, Ruth Vega Fernandez as Mia and Liv Mjönes as Frida, gives beautiful performances, as do Lena Endre as the mom and Krister Henriksson as the rather confused and in denial father of Mia. And I loved Mia's brother, Oscar, played by Tom Ljungman. Actually - the only one I did not get a feel of was Tim, the boyfriend of Mia, played by Joakim Nätterqvist. Maybe a script thing but he came over too one dimensional to me. As for cudos: Great one to you, Alexandra-Therese Keining, writing it and for directing it !!! AND to you Josefine Tengblad, producer, playing Elin, Fridas girlfriend. Great job!!

And for "rumpanbar" (meening in Swedish "bare ass") who gave it a 1 !! Are you for real ???

All in all: I love this film !
