Review of Love, Simon (2018) by Alex M — 16 Mar 2018
Love Simon was the Gay Romcom we all deserved. As an absolute, fellow queer myself I hav meassive respect and appreciation for what they did. The score was beautiful, the characters were complex, interesting and, for the most part, lovable. The story was absolutely brilliant and so realistically gay. Simon is not just his coming out story,Simon is Simon and he just happens to be gay.
I know kids will see this and be able to know "I'm okay. I'm going to be okay.".
I hope every questioning, or queer, or LGBT+ child gets to see this movie and see themselves in it. Perhaps, if I had had such realistic and well made representation in my childhood I would have figured out I was gay a lot sooner.
I cried, I laughed, I cheered and I hope more movies will see love Soimon as an example to follow and I get more gay romcoms to watch.
