I’m just in the mood for a movie with gay (or bi) dudes!
That’s not Call Me By Your Name or Love, Simon or another one that’s been recced to me a hundred times already. Disclaimer: this is not an official rec list of The Best Movies with MLM That You Absolutely Must See! There’s a pretty wide variety to content and tone. Not all the movies I’m going…
