Top Ten Best Gay Movies
Brokeback Mountain definitely deserves to be #1. Not because of the plot itself or the characters - though those are some of the things that make it good - but because of the development between our two main characters. They were not born gay. They just developed a bond more powerful than friendship. As the story progresses, it shows how deeply affecting this is to both the main characters and the supporting cast. On top of that, it's subtle, beautiful, emotional, and passionate, just like the relationship between Jack and Ennis. This is the film that made me feel invested the entire time. If you're not into these kinds of stories, that's fine. I can understand why some people wouldn't want to watch this film. But if you are looking for a film that is going to challenge you psychologically, Brokeback Mountain is one of those near-masterpieces to check out.
It deserves a comment if it's number 2. A lighthearted but endearing memory.
It is an outstanding movie that makes one feel life is beautiful. All the concepts of love are seen (family, friends, lovers), and even the acceptance of society is shown. It's done so cleanly and refreshingly.
Great story. Trevor Wright is awesome... and hot!
I love how the story ends and how they act.
This should be the movie of all time. This man was murdered standing up for gay rights and helped pave the way for the social acceptance we have today - but we all know it could be better.
Harvey Milk is a brave gay hero, someone we should never forget, ever.
Harvey had the strength that most of us wish we could have to be himself in a world that hated him, and he changed that world.
He was willing to "come out" when it wasn't done. Without people like him, it wouldn't be normal today.
If you haven't seen it, it's about the epic quest for love and acceptance that we all search for while battling the inner demons of self-loathing ingrained in us by society. Truly a tragic ending!
A movie with incredible acting. The gay people actually win in this movie. I don't see how people can prefer that steaming pile of crap Brokeback to this.
I loved this movie, especially when he goes to the mother's house looking for him.
I can't believe Brokeback Mountain was rated higher than this masterpiece.
This was my first "gay" movie. I loved it because it hit home for me. It is a Brit film, but I completely delved into it and watched it over and over. Not a comedy but a coming-of-age tale that is heartwarming.
It has a great storyline and really conveys emotional feelings, with great bouts of comedic relief!
It's funny with fabulous acting. It's interesting and comedic. This film is so cute.
One of the best movies I have ever seen. A very moving story.
Ok, Robin Williams and Nathan Lane - who could want more comedy? A classic, yes, a remake of an older French comedy with the garnish of Nathan Lane as Albert, "Try more gum." Quotes abound that will permeate and make you giggle. Most of my friends, and I of course, have committed many, many quotes to memory. A delicious tale that makes for a popcorn and movie night that much more.
How can you not LOVE this movie? It just makes me cry every time I watch it. Sigourney Weaver is perfection in her acting as always, and Ryan Kelley does an absolutely amazing job. I think everybody NEEDS to watch this movie because it could save a lot of lives.
Gorgeous and touching movie. It has to be one of the most stunning portrayals of the troubles and prejudice that gay men face in society. This movie will definitely get you thinking and will definitely make you cry. To me, one of the best movies out there.
Nice, but it misses the fun required! We look for some chemistry!
This is one of the best gay films that deals with "coming out." And it is hilarious.
I LOVE this movie, although it's better on Broadway.
I loved this movie! It was really inspiring! It encouraged me to admit I'm bi to my friends. Don't judge me! No shame! #LOVESIMON
I love this film! They stayed true to the book and got incredible actors and actresses.
It's so moving and beautiful! The first real gay movie I've seen. LOVE IT!
Want to laugh? This is it - stereotypes and the resulting laughs. The situational comedy adds to the insanity. No thinking required, just sit back and watch it undress.
This should be in the top 2 at least! Great movie with hot actors!
