young hearts (2024)
#ik the queer coming of age tag hates to see me coming#hey queer coming of age stories was literally my summer research paper i think i'm PASSIONATE ENOUGH ☝🏻🤓#like i kind of get the jokes of “hey you just need the countryside + bikes + gay kids = baam coming of age story 🏳️‍🌈”#but at the same time just notice the nuanced differences#in how these stories despite revolving around similar themes are executed so differently#how the country+culture+class+caste systems are inherently interlinked in these coming out/coming of age stories#for example monster (2023) and close (2022) are the other recent releases that young hearts (2024) is being compared to#and how it seemingly is the happier one and hence better#i respectfully agree to disagree#because all these different endings coincide with the different beginnings of these stories#and it shouldn't matter all that much#instead it should be celebrated imo#young hearts (2024)'s main character elias being scrutinised because well of an apt depiction of internalised homophobia#like yes he's an absolute asshole sometimes#yes he should apologise#but at his core he's just a scared kid#and i felt so much joy seeing his family and friends being such a wonderful support system to him#each beat was caught perfectly#i'm gonna think about this film fondly forever#young hearts 2024#young hearts (2024)#young hearts#young hearts film#elias young hearts#alexander young hearts#elias x alexander#elias x alex#alex young hearts#childhood friends to lovers#coming of age
