You might like Kissing Jessica Stein (2001). It’s funny, clever, and has more of an incisive bite on same sex couples than Brokeback Mountain could ever hope to have.

I've never seen the whole thing because it looks so sad. I'm sure it's great but i agree with the peeps saying there needs to be more happy gay stories.
I watched little miss sunshine the other day after not seeing it in forever and it made me think of you. Cause you're critical of characters that are made into gay stereotypes. I thought they did a great job with steve carell's character. I had forgotten he was even gay. Not that there's anything wrong with flamboyantly gay characters, i just think it's good to have a wider representation since they're not all 'swishy' -

I've seen people on the internet trash the tragic ones, saying there needs to be more happy gay stories, and i kind of agree but i think the tragic ones are valid. I mean, lgbtq peeps go through a lot so it makes sense to portray that. I usually just steer clear of anything that i know will make me cry lol. But they're still great movies, like you said. I need to check out Carol!

I'd recommend
My Beautiful Laundrette
(1985)
It deals more with rebellion and racism as well as class struggles than focusing as much on gay romance.
The characters know where they stand with each other and they fight the odds against them.
It doesn't overdo anything or push anything…and it's well acted.
Making Love
(1982)
Some may think it was ahead of it's time, but it probably captures that period well before AIDS.
It's a love-triangle that ends up with each person going separate ways, but they all have closure.
Michael Ontkean and Kate Jackson seem to be the perfect married couple but his sexual orientation overrides the relationship and he ends up having a fling with another guy, played by Harry Hamlin.
Hamlin is too self-absorbed to commit to a relationship and far to set in his cruising ways, so things go south rather quickly
Ontkean yearns for something more stable…with another male
His wife struggles to keep their marriage but eventually comes to terms with the inevitable

I think in a way it was better than Philly where it shows blue collar or working class men who go through the troubles of being gay vs Philly where it was some rich ****er and how are those of the working class supposed to sympathize of the white collar rich workers?
There were plenty of poor gays, and straights, who got AIDS. Why not them instead?
It would be nice, if I am not aware of it already, if they gave you gays a mainstream movie that had a happy ending instead. -

A typical Ang Lee movie about people being constrained by a strict culture.
