]]>Here are the Entertainment For Us LGBTQ+ approved movies of the last decade. We missed Bohemian Rhapsody on purpose.
Pride is one of the most uplifting and emotional LGBTQ+ films to come out of the UK. It’s based on a true story and is an essential part of UK culture.
Wild and tender at the same time, Tangerine is a must-watch for those who find themselves wanting to learn more about transgender subculture.
Incredible performances from the leading ladies and a script that has even the hardest of hearts in tears by the end.
Finally, a coming-of-age teen movie where the protagonist is a gay man and not the flamboyant best friend.
Rocket Man gets everything right that Bohemian Rhapsody got wrong. It is a true celebration of Elton John and LGBTQ+ pride.
A beautiful romance of true love with complicated consequences.
Another hidden gem on Amazon Prime. If you liked the series, you’ll love the movie.
A lesbian romance between a carer and a wrestler. It’s quirky, eccentric and LGBTQ+ heaven.
There’s pride, murder and X rated movies, what’s not to love? A bold and raunchy film set in the summer of 1979.
A drama romance for those days when we feel like we are running round in circles with no chance of things getting any better.

“It’s really special, and it’s been so humbling,” Becky Albertalli, the writer of the novel Love, Simon was based on, told the BBC. “But most of us were kind of surprised to realize that it was the first of its kind. It just seems like that shouldn’t be the case in 2018. There should have been a lot of films like this! It’s just a sweet rom-com.”
“It’s exciting to be a part of that, because you hope it will open the door, and there will be more and more. But it’s good to get the ball rolling to what I hope is a new era of films moving forwards,” she continued.
“It’s a lot of responsibility though and everyone involved feels the weight of that. It’s hard because this story is just Simon’s story. And then you see a lot of [director] Greg Berlanti’s personal story – it’s a passion project.”
A large number of fans of the movie have taken to Twitter to share their personal stories of how Love, Simon resonated with them. Many have even claimed the movie has encouraged them to come out to their loved ones and friends.
I work at a cinema and two older women bought tickets to Love, Simon and as one of the women walked away, the other one turned to me and said ‘she’s been my best friend for 25 years and I’m going to come out to her at the end of the film’ then walked away and now I’m crying
