If anyone can rec any where the two lovers don't die I would love u omg.
So glad someone made this thread
I am not usually a big LGBTQ film junkie as most of them are quite tacky BUT Pose has been hands-down my most favourite: the history behind it, excellent acting skills from the cast, nail-biting plot and kept me on edge all the time!

SCREAMS about BLY MANOR
watch it..also it's horror
I think the only one that's specifically LGBT that I adore is "Pride". It's such a beautiful, wholesome movie that sends a really great message. Makes me cry every time I watch it. Oh, and GREAT casting too!!
EDIT: Forgot, I also really love "The Way He Looks" which is about two boys who fall in love, one of whom is blind. Had to watch it for a class in college but it truly is adorable. It's in (Brazilian) Portuguese btw.

^^ Thanks to Menine for the icon & Gremlin for this userbar!
Haven't seen many but I do remember a funny one called D.E.B.S., the villain coming clear because falling in love with her fair honest antagonist (though lucy wasn't really a villain, she just wanted to rock and live cool and hey she spreads diamonds!). I really liked this one ^^

Omg how am I only just seeing this thread. Full disclosure I BARELY watch movies so it's been ages for all of these and the memories are kind of faint, but this is what comes to mind (that haven't been mentioned - shoutout to Carol my beloved)
Don't be fooled by the poster it's devastating. It's in Portuguese so if you don't speak that you'll need subs, but 10/10 worth it
Very strange and often uncomfortable but I liked it a lot. What's cool is that I wasn't actually rooting for the relationship - it's refreshing to see different kinds of stories be gay
Not the most LGBT but it's got definite queer energy, one actual kiss, and past that it's just like, nuts (in a fun way but also very dramatic). Additional queer points for reviving my crushes on both Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick.
This movie doesn't explicitly say the characters are gay but only out of cowardice (and/or bc it was 1991). It's a gay story about gay people and that is true and obvious in an iykyk way
Full disclosure I saw this movie at a festival and Julianne Moore and Elliot Page were there and took questions after the screening, so while my memory of it is good that's def coloured by excitement for the situation overall and I honestly forget how much I like the movie itself. Warning it is in the Terminal Illness category
This one didn't come to mind right away because it's less about romantic relationships and more about high school kids running around and being chaotic, but one of the main characters is gay & it's not like made a problem ever, which is nice to see
Gonna have to watch a bunch of the others mentioned here! Always need more gay media.
thank you for the gay rights peo ♥ @honeycomb ♥
The movie "I Love You Phillip Morris" is both amazing and hilarious.

First, really excited to add a bunch of movies to the watch list...
Second, The Birdcage is definitely a classic up there, and before I knew anything about my own queerness, let me see not only that there were others like me, but that they could just... have a normal life, that included fighting. Just like anyone else. It was kind of an eye opener to a weird immigrant teenage me, haha.
I'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned yet, but Love Simon was really cute. I never saw the one that came after, but the original was definitely a cute heartfelt watch.
For the last, I know its on everyone's rip apart list, but I've only been able to watch Brokeback Mountain the one, first time. I've never been able to bring myself to watch it since, both because of Heath Ledger, but also because of how hard I cried at the end, and how despondent it made me for days. I'm not happy that its the go-to joke movie, because the story was beyond any of my ability to put into words. I just remember sitting at my desk crying for hours after watching it, and I hate that it got the rep it did, just because it got as popular as it did.
"Crush" recently came out on Hulu, it's a cute high school romcom focusing on the confusing feelings around the lesbian main character's crushes. Not the most prestigious film of course, but it wasn't that bad compared to some of the other high school movies I've seen produced by streaming platforms!

Rocky Horror and Hedwig are so close to my heart.
Can I also recommend the pro shot of the National Theatre's version of Angels in America (or the old mini series, but that's not as powerful imo.
There is also the pro shot of the musical Falsettos, which I adore:
