Hidden Hills

Imaginatively conceived, cleverly written, competently acted, well directed, funny, colorful, and -- true to the era -- no bad language. Also no violence. A simple "boy-gets-boy" plot with a complicating "girls wants boy but that's a 'no-no'" twist. Excellent score evokes Henry Mancini. Deliberately makes fun of early 60's film characteristics such as bad rear screen, flat lighting, and split-screen phone chats. All in all, some good laughs and a message that's as important and relevant in this day of same-sex marriage as it would have been in the Sixties for mixed race relationships. Reminds one of the excellent early 60's Ossie Davis/Ruby Dee race relations comedy "Purlie Victorious" (aka "Gone are the Days.") Kudos to Executive Producer Ted Trent for the idea and the funding; and to Director/Writer Dan Steadman for bringing the idea to life. I understand this team is working on more films. Good.
