It’s funny, heartwarming, and the characters are totally fully realized. I think it totally captures that feeling of young love, where everything is innocent and new and electric. “It’s about two young boys that fall in love in a British council estate (public housing). This issues bring them together and they find that what they feel for each other is more than friendship. His neighbour Ste has a rough time at home, being beaten by his father and brother. Jamie is a shy teenager, often bullied at school. I hope you find a few films here that will make you laugh! Top of the list however is my favourite film of all, and one you may well have seen but which I find I can watch again and again! If you have Netflix you will find a few of these films on there also. Most of the films below I’ve not seen, but they were listed on this website and this one as one’s voted most popular for having a happy theme.
It reminded me how many gay themed films I have watched which end in death, separation or sorrow! As part of LGBTQ history month I thought it would be good to put together a list of films that are uplifting and celebrate being gay.
A few weeks ago I saw a post where someone was asking for suggestions for gay themed films that had happy or uplifting themes.
