This film follows the lives of a group of teens in NYC over 24 hours. It basically features a lot of drugs, some sex and much partying. There are two lesbian kissing scenes in this film.

Actresses:
Michele Lockwood & Carisa Glucksman


In the first scene, half a dozen teen boys and girls are playing around beside a pool. Some of them jump into the pool, where the lesbian kissing scene takes place. Two teen girls just unexpectedly lock lips, although there isn't much tongue. It seems they do it just as a "show for the boys". One of the guys, in amazement, then says, "how can you guys do that?" The scene is not very erotic.

This film is by no means emmy award winning, although it features one good girls kissing scene. If you really want to see it, then I recommend that you rent out the film. Bear in mind though, it is only a few short moments of lesbian kissing and lesbianism is not the main theme of this film.

The story of 'Kids' follows a group of teenage friends around a city in a day meant to be great fun, but is practically a downward spiral for a few of them.
After sneaking into a pool, a couple of the kids ask the two girls to kiss. One of them says "sure, we do it all the time." They watch, and ask, "Are you dykes?" They say, "NO!" and when asked why they do it, they say "it just feels good." but that doesnt make them gay.
The movie over all was interesting. Not the exact idea of a mainstream movie; rather indie looking at times. The cleverness of the plot though is rather interesting.

Build-up: 3   Kissing: 5   Movie overall: 4
An excellent film following the fictional lives of a few young teenagers (around 15 years old) through the streets of New York. Sex, alcohol and drugs are rampant from the first to the last scenes of the film. Throughout, the main character brags to his friends about his sex life and propensity for young virgin girls. There is some explicit content revolving around these young teenagers, who aren't older actors playing younger parts. All and all the film is a graphic but true to life account of this generation and the tribulations they face. Not for the older crowd, but an excellent ficticious documentary nonetheless.
A brief lead in to the pool scene takes place in the pool, when the boys try to get the girls to kiss. After a quick tease, the girls approach each other in their see through and wet white bras and panties and connect for a very passionate french kiss, lasting around 8 seconds in full. Towards the end of the kiss, the girls separate and answer the question: "you guys are dykes, right?" After another brief liplock, the girls reply "no." When asked how they can do that and not be? The girls simply say: "Because it just feels good."
As a young adult, I was able to connect with this movie on its true to life images and accounts. It is an excellent film, both for the actual content and the kissing. However, I wouldn't recommend it for anything else than the girl/girl action to the older crowd. The images are both graphic and real and may be boring or unintriguing for an audience other than the target (teenagers-young adults).

Shows the lives of teenagers in an urban city. A detailed description of things kids face in everyday life from sex, rape, drugs, violence and wild parties.
The overal movie is pretty good, not great but worth seeing. The kiss scene is hot, the girls are cute and the kiss has meaning and passion. The movie is worth seeing but not necessarily because of the kissing scene, but because the overall movie is good.
