Second, it's important to represent stories from different timeframes so we can see where we've been and where we hope to go. So, why is it on this list? A couple reasons: First, not to stereotype, but this bisexual writer has a very hearty appreciation for these films. Disney still struggles with gay couples in 2021, so you know there's no way that there was an LGBTQ+ on-screen relationship in any of the Princess Diaries movies. He is welcomed by his cousin, obsessed with apparences, and getting interests towards Simon, a scholarship student struggling to make friends in the school because he is not a noble.Here's the deal: The Princess Diaries 2: The Royal Engagement came out back in 2004. This one is a series, and there is only 1 season so far, but season 2 is already on the works apparently.įollowing a fight in a nightclub that made the first page on the news, Prince Wilhelm is forced to change school to attend the same school his older brother and the nobles of his country go to. The story is mainly about Ellio discovering his sexuality, it is very refreshing because it doesn’t focus on the usual homophobia / persecution of gay people that many other movies tell or seems to be obligated to add to their plot. It’s my favourite movie, again it’s not a comedy, and it has a real feeling. This year, the student is Oliver, a 25yo american.
Every year the family hosts an exchange student for the summer to help with Ellio’s father research. Ellio, 17yo is on vacation in his family house, his father is a university teacher in archeology.
The story takes place in Italy in the 80s. The plot is well written, but it’s not a comic movie, it has a very real feeling, it’s not cited often but i strongly recommend it if you can find it online.Ĭall me by your name : i’m surprised i didn’t see it in the comments. In the meantime, Damiens while being Tom’s victim, is also secretly in love with his bully. When Tom’s mother get sick, Damien’s mom offers him shelter since his mom needs permanent help, so the two teenagers are forced to live together. The story is about Damien and Tom, two teenagers in highschool, Tom is Damien’s bully in school but Damien’s mom doesn’t know.
Quand on a 17 ans : The movie takes place in rural France.
TV series that brought me joy during the last year:Ī couple of faves I'm going to watch again this month: Just Friends (2019) - Netherlands - original title: "Gewoon vrienden"īoys (2015) - Netherlands - original title: "Jongens" These are the best gay coming-of-age tales I've watched in 2021: Thankfully gay stories don't have to end in tragedy any longer and can actually be funny, delightful and life-affirming. I've experienced enough of that in my own life that I find it impossible to be entertained by such acts on screen. The pandemic has been getting me down, so I've been looking for similar films this past year -with one caveat - no violence or extreme homophobia.
