Review of Love, Simon (2018) by Andrew M — 17 Mar 2018
Amazing movie. There are times when it's cliché but its easy to forget because then you realize the main characters are gay. I felt the cliché scenes were put on purpose to make sure everyone reaizes that gay or straight the same moments happen in gay relationships as well as straight ones.
Scene as simple as going to school and having crushes work in similar ways as heterosexual people, but the only difference is that the self-acceptance and societal acceptance portion gets in the way. I believe the movie does a great job at pointing out that gay people should, can, and do deserve a romantic movie about them without the hypersexualization or self-destruction.
This movies show the ugly reality and the hopefulness of being true to yourself in order to set you free.
