'In honor of the blessed and the brokenhearted this Valentine’s Day, I’d like to suggest a few films that...may have never been on your radar.'
, many queer romances have breathed new life into the genre, expanding the definitions of love, what it means to fall for someone, and how that journey is depicted onscreen.
In honor of the blessed and the brokenhearted this Valentine’s Day, I’d like to suggest a few films that touch on queer romances that may have never been on your radar:Matthias and Maxime have been best friends since childhood. Matthias has a caring girlfriend and a successful career as a business executive, while Maxime is desperately finishing his applications to Australia, hoping for better opportunities and distance from his abusive mother.
Except it isn’t. When the onscreen intimacy cracks everything open and awakens dormant feelings within them and between them, a wrench is thrown into their present and future. Writer-director Xavier Dolan traces and treads the boundaries between platonic and romantic, and the film is at its best when the two seem inseparable and generous.
