Kyss mig movie review - love is love

On the seaside of Barcelona, ​​a blue-eyed girl lowered her head and sketched the poetry of sunlight flowing into the sea. When she looked up, her lover was reflected in her blue sea-like eyes, and her surprise turned into tenderness. It turns out that the final destination of the sea and the stars is not the universe, not the passage of time, but your eyes when you stare at me. This is the most beautiful ending scene I've seen since watching the movie, just like the love that washes away the lead.

The film begins with the sex of a soon-to-be-engaged couple, a staid sex that heralds a long-lasting relationship and a passion for retreat. Perhaps only memorable events such as engagement and marriage can rekindle the love between the two. The plot develops steadily. Mia and Tim, who are architects in the city, return home, just as their father is newly married, and they meet Frida, the child of a stepmother they have never met. She has sea-like eyes, and her smile is sincere and gentle. I guess Mia was immersed in the gentle blue swamp the first time she saw her. After his father's wedding, the reorganized family was restrained and polite. Mia and her father also had minor conflicts. In addition to the issue of skirts at the wedding, there were two generations of stubbornness. In order to make Mia more integrated into his new family, Mia's father asked Mia, stepmother and Frida to go on vacation to the forest cabin, but he did not tell him that he would not go. Mia is full of rejection of this journey in the face of her unfamiliar family and father without telling her, Frida kindly approached her. During an outing, watching the psychedelic forest mist and the beautiful scenery of deer resting peacefully, Mia kissed Frida as if in a daze. Kyss mig means kiss me in Swedish. In the kiss with deep meaning in the heart, the story begins. There is not much to say about the plot of the movie when it comes to spoilers.

The film also explores this unavoidable same-sex love, which is a bit deeper than the usual pure love films. Mia resists this love not just because of her engagement to Tim, but because of her father's views on homosexuality. Mia's father is actually very disgusted with homosexuality, which led to Mia's first love being a girl, but eventually had to give up her first love and turn to men. Mia almost had a heated argument with her father about her daughter falling in love with the same sex. The final result was that Mia convinced her heart and officially expressed her desire for this relationship. It is unknown whether her father truly blessed her. Here I admire Frida's mother very much, she has always encouraged her children to pursue their true love, as long as they feel happiness in love, regardless of whether the form of love conforms to the mainstream. Only after confirming that Mia truly loves Frida, she is willing to bless the two children.

After watching a lot of same-sex love movies, I think that it takes a lot of courage and a strong heart for people to break free from social prejudice, because not only the contradictions in family relationships, but also the views on same-sex love will rise to social inclusion. Sweden is a society with a high degree of social tolerance. In addition to the traditional concept of family, this film focuses more on self-identification and brave pursuit of love. Mia finally chose to respect her heart, even if her father did not understand 100%, she was willing to be brave for herself and her lover. , except for the cannon fodder Tim, I think the whole movie is still full of the warmth of light comedy. I guess love is just love, and I wish people would see this as something ordinary.

In fact, the best thing about this movie is eroticism, from Mia and Tim's old-fashioned sex, to Frida's first tender and unbearable sex, to the last apocalyptic sex. Every relationship is sublimating step by step. It is the change in Mia's perception of love and the driving force behind her bravery. I always feel that adult love, especially in the face of worldly doubts, can be so small and fresh. Easy, but I guess that's how love is supposed to be. Every street you meet is so romantic because of love that it doesn't seem to be mundane.

For northern Europe, I don’t like the dense forest and the gray feeling that is too cold, but this movie presents the first kiss by the lake, the charming herd of deer staring affectionately at the lovers in the forest, and the clear lake water is like pouring out The courage of the bicycle carrying the crowded people gallops on the forest path, which makes me gradually feel that this city is not all alienation. The primitive environment stimulates people's primitive desires, and after breaking free from all externalities, love is just love, just the desire of the soul for the soul.

I love the ending, Mia's love journey, the stone building in Barcelona, ​​the city full of Gaudí's soul, where people find pure, romantic, crazy love. As ancient as ancient buildings and oceans, it is love as it is.

Love is love, regardless of gender. So don't be afraid when your eyes meet, kyss mig.
