Romantic and Drama Gay Movies
Only high quality movies included (and there are not many LGBTQ+ films with interesting story lines or good acting). These are all drama movies, so the focus is not on the plot so much as it is on the mood, emotions and subtlety in expression of one's words and feelings. That is at least what I expect from a romantic drama.

- DirectorLuca GuadagninoStarsTimothée ChalametArmie HammerMichael StuhlbargIn 1980s Italy, romance blossoms between a seventeen-year-old student and the older man hired as his father's research assistant.The cinematography and music are great, but the movie pales in comparison to the book which is phenomenal: full of inner monologues and charged with turbulent emotional states. I recommend you the book more, but it's probably better that you see the movie first, as that way you'll be less disappointed.

It's not some grand drama movie, but rather a simple one, with lovable and realistic characters though. A nice movie to watch to relax.
