Love, Simon made history last year as the first movie by a major Hollywood studio to centre on a gay teen romance; with all the teen movies that focus on straight relationships, it goes without saying that something like this was a long time coming. Seeing yourself represented onscreen is crucial to feeling validated in your identity, so the portrayal of two teenage boys discovering their sexuality (and subsequently, their attraction to each other) is incredibly important for teens struggling through what is usually the worst part of an LGBTQ+ person's life to see. Sexuality aside, the tender kiss between Simon (Nick Robinson) and Bram (Keiynan Lonsdale) is one of the most touching moments from a teen movie in recent memory.
