Will the lessons in Happiest
Season put a smile on

00:00:03.540 --> 00:00:04.790
parents' faces?

00:00:04.790 --> 00:00:06.299
[Music plays]

00:00:06.299 --> 00:00:09.400
"Everybody's story is different. 
Just because Harper isn't

00:00:09.400 --> 00:00:11.769
ready, doesn't mean she
doesn't love you."

00:00:11.769 --> 00:00:12.769
They sure will.

00:00:13.769 --> 00:00:16.049
In this Christmas-themed
romcom, a young woman

00:00:16.049 --> 00:00:18.470
brings her girlfriend home
for the holidays but tries

00:00:18.470 --> 00:00:20.570
to hide their sexuality
from the family.

00:00:20.570 --> 00:00:22.810
"What are you doing in
the closet?!"

00:00:22.810 --> 00:00:25.240
While the story is
undeniably sweet, it

00:00:25.240 --> 00:00:27.830
does have some edgy
humor and swearing.

00:00:27.830 --> 00:00:30.060
So be ready for the
occasional S-word, a

00:00:30.060 --> 00:00:33.430
few suggestive jokes,
plus kissing and implied sex.

00:00:33.430 --> 00:00:34.430
[Women gasp]

00:00:34.430 --> 00:00:37.170
There's also plenty of
festive, social drinking

00:00:37.170 --> 00:00:40.380
and talk of using alcohol
to avoid upsetting conversations.

00:00:40.380 --> 00:00:43.620
"I am not hiding you,
I am hiding me!"

00:00:43.620 --> 00:00:46.350
Ultimately, the movie offers
a powerful message about

00:00:46.350 --> 00:00:49.020
finding the courage to be
yourself, especially amid

00:00:49.020 --> 00:00:51.080
the fear of familial rejection.

Common Sense says
Happiest Season is OK

00:00:55.100 --> 00:00:57.309
for teens 13 and up.
