The last LGBT movie I watched is called The Man With All The Answers, I love the chemistry between the leads, the one with black hair is a dream, his attitude and everything was lovely. And it doesn't have a sad ending which makes it even better.

yeah i saw that one like 4 times  i like that one song that plays during the dance scene too

My favorite film is probably Hidden Kisses, did not expect that one to be such a gem. 

 

And I can't be the only one that likes a good tragic story.

i feel like we needed some more context such when did their relationship begin cuz it went from a funeral scene to them ******* in their family home  like it escalated out of nowhere  but yes a hot mess it was

Nnn this is pretty hard

 

Maurice is fantastic imo. Its from the 80s and directed by James Ivory who wrote the screenplay for CMBYN. You'd love it if you like the latter.

 

Prayers for Bobby is very depressing but I truly believe that everyone in the LGBT community has to see it at some point. It's a Lifetime movie so don't expect much on the technical side but its a powerful and beautifully-acted telling of a tragic true story. Sigourney Weaver ate and left no crumbs.

 

Dream Boy was very traumatizing and depressing so I wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless you're ready. It's not a great movie but for some reason I remember liking it a lot and sobbing towards the ending.  

 

Jongens was very sweet and inoffensive. Really good if you're into lighthearted and happy coming of age stories.

 

House of Boys was nothing special and it does what many other gay films have done before. A heartbreaking movie about gays and AIDS.

Close was just so good and exquisite, beautiful acting from not only the kids but also the parents, then the photography was great and also the script was simple but effective.

 

@feelslikeadream yay   let me know if you have suggestions to films not on the list that I should watch and add

God's Own Country! As many have said here, it's great. Already a modern gay classic.

 

If you're interested in watching lesbian films, Portrait of a Lady on Fire is exquisite. I saw it in theaters and was so moved.

 

Do you like slow burns? I assume you do since you liked Power of the Dog lol (which I thought was excellent). I don't see any Marco Berger on your list and I love his work. Hawaii and The Blonde One are my faves. His work is very interested in building sexual tension, so they're usually not very flashy or fast-paced.

 

I also really liked A Moment in the Reeds. It's almost entirely the two leads talking to each other, but I thought it was really hot  It's kinda similar to God's Own Country in a way, so maybe watch that first, and if you like it, check out AMitR.

 

Finally, The Man with the Answers and Just Friends were also pretty good.

Borstal Boy with Danny Dyer and Shawn Hatosy, at one point this movie was everything to me
