At first it looks little different from any other teen drama, but Fox's "Love, Simon" is as significant a milestone for LGBT inclusion as "Black Panther" was for racial diversity.
While the DVD aisles of superstores the world over groan under the weight of stories of callow first love, never before has a mainstream studio romantic comedy been told from the perspective of a gay teenager.
"Everyone, myself included, can relate to Simon and his journey, and trying to find yourself and come to terms with yourself in a way that feels comfortable," the film's 22-year-old star Nick Robinson said at a recent preview screening in Los Angeles.

Does Hollywood even make movies about first love or non-jaded heterosexual monogamous courting anymore?
Describing something that was done in the 30s-60s doesn’t mean so much when that type of story was fading in the 80s and put out to pasture in the 90s.
Very slowly, they will introduce the idea of a minor having sex with a much older man. It begins the push for lowering the Age of Consent.
Going to Thailand costs too much money.
No -- phobias are irrational. Your distaste is rational.
2018 Academy Award Best Picture -- "Call Me By Your Name" -- In 1980s Italy, a romance blossoms between a seventeen year-old (male) student and the older man hired as his father's research assistant.

I’m expecting Jerry Sandusky to be released from prison with an apology and a complimentary pre-pubescent boy.
I thought Sodomy browns ones horizons ?
I don’t know about “horizons”, but it sure ... aids .. in spreading disease.

“..Yeah, Moses had a temper but he never left a girl at the bottom of the Red Sea.”..”
Just damn....
Will be good to see this put to rest and watch the Dems heads exploding with rage.
Too bad it couldn’t have been made while that POS was still around to see his little world crash in on him.
“Too bad it couldn’t have been made while that POS was still around to see his little world crash in on him.”
Amen, amen and amen.
It’s DISGUSTING that the POS got away with it AND kept getting re-elected every six years.
“..AND kept getting re-elected...”
And THAT, my friend, is what is even more pathetic than the Swimmer... the people who kept rewarding him and sending him back to DC.
He got away with (arguably) murder, covering it up to protect his OWN weasel ass, and then got a taxpayer paycheck on top of it while pissing in the Country’s face.
Yep.
Detestable. Totally detestable.
Who dafuq is gonna watch this movie?
A romcom without a chick? Straight men, obviously not interested.
Women? Homo sex disgusts most women on a visceral level.
They can market the sodomite movies like FedEx... “What can brown do for you ?”
So...
WTF exactly is a rom-com???
