    I'm an old gay, an AIDS era gay. A movie where no one is sick, no one does, no one is beaten, no f* word. Just a comedy-romance. I really liked this movie, and seeing that your reactions are no different then mine. That sentence got away from me. This movie just made me happy; happy in a way i haven't been in a long time. I am on my 4th watch through.

      i saw an older gay cople on the bus the other day and i almost started crying. I'm a younger gay person, and it's so important to see older couples just living and being happy. Seeing couples who paved the way for me to be able to head my schools council as "queer representative" and not be bullied for it makes me so happy. We so often hear stories about gay suffering and mourning, and while it's important to learn and grow from the grief, i'm so grateful for the privledge of allowing myself to be happy.

      So truee omg. I have watched tons of sexual scenes in BL films. I'm kinda emotionless watching these scenes, even though they are intense. But this one, it was too real and I am too shy. I paused like 20 times during that love-making scene. Maybe this is a thing that makes RWRB different from other typical queer films.

  • @lazedaisies
    @lazedaisies 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +535

    there was more exploration of alex's bisexuality in the book but because alex's character in the movie is more aged up, that's why alex has already accepted the fact that he's into guys but he's confused that he's into THE prince henry - which was a nice change since the movie can then focus more on alex and henry's love story with the limited time.

    I'm a 61 year old straight woman & I think Red White and Royal Blue is one of the best rom-coms I've seen in a long time. It's fresh, modern & in many ways very informative. Maybe it's just me, but very early on it stopped being a "queer" romance & became just a romance between two people trying (& initially, temporarily failing) to make a challenging relationship work. BTW, I just stumbled onto your channel, but you two are hilarious! Thanks for a great review!

      The sex scene was truly amazing. So tender, romantic but very very hot. I'm a straight woman but was so turned on by this scene. I literally melted when Alex opened Henry's shirt. So hot. Any scene in a gay movie can be really hot but it's not often as tender as this. It reminded me of some of the sex scenes in The Priest with Robert Carlisle and Linus Roche. Really beautiful and tender.

  • @SleepStarvedNerd
    @SleepStarvedNerd 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +105

    I'm glad more people are appreciating THAT scene 🥵
    The intimacy coordinator deserves a trophy for that. All of the little moments: Henry's hand on Alex's back, pushing Alex forward and deeper; the little gasps and holding of breath; the foreheads touching... All of those little details not only made it incredibly intimate but also one of the most realistic queer sex scenes I've ever witness in cinema without being gratuitous. Bravo 👏 Well done all around.

      I would add that as someone who is Bi and grew up in Oklahoma, which has a similar vibe to Texas in terms of conservatism, Alex's confusion and just plain ignorance of how to contextualize and name his feelings toward people of the same sex really resonated with me.

      So true! I listened to the audiobook version back in 2019, and after watching the film, which I absolutely loved, I decided to give it a re-listen. The film is amazing, but the book is life-altering. It has layers, which the film lacks - it makes sense that the film is a simplified version, but the book is everything.

    The book and the movie are great in their own ways. The book gives us a deep dive into the characters involved, and gives us a little more depth to how the two got together. The movie took what is special from the book and wrote it in the best way you can for a movie adaptation. Personally as I introduce RWRB to my friends, I recommend movie first before book, because the movie gives us the visuals, and the entrance to the world of Henry and Alex; and then you read the book and connect with them more, connect with their stories more. That's why, personally, watching the movie first and reading the book is better for RWRB's case.

    • @andre_p
      @andre_p 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      Valid POV, but I think reading the book first allows for a more complete perspective of Alex and Henry’s respective predicaments (family/public/political environment), without which the ‘drama’ loses much of its edge. It’s telling that the film has eliminated a variety of side characters who play an important part in the book (Alex’ sister June, Senator Luna, Ellen Claremont’s first husband - Alex’ real biological dad) and reduced others to 30 second cameos. The film does have the considerable advantage of showing us the main character’s faces - and what faces…😍.

    • @JL-08
      @JL-08 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

      As someone who has seen the movie 3x before diving in to the book (which is something that I did for the very first time), I could not agree more. The thing is they portrayed the characters so well that most of them I can even imagine while reading the book. Then to see a much deeper connection especially at the start of their friendship/relationship is just ✨ with of course the addition of other characters involvement to their life. And god oh god the ending on book with Henry’s POV is such a heartwarming read ❤❤
      I know I may (or may not) receive barrage of comments but there are some scene or at least part of the movie that I like more than the source material.

    Movie Timeline Notes (in case anyone is interested). I think the director did a brilliant job with the pacing. Considering the span of time you’re covering. As well as the evolution of two characters. AND it all needs to feel real and authentic.
    -The Royal Wedding Cake incident happened in August.
    -Alex and Henry then text flirt for 4 months. Starting from the PR Damage Control to the NYE Party. End of August to end of December.
    -End of December. NYE Kiss. 4 months is a lot of build up and a long time for them to get to know each other. Which is why I believed Henry when he was so upset seeing Alex kiss someone else.
    -Then Henry ghosts Alex for over 2 months. January to TBD March.
    -The PM Dinner where they first see each other again (after the ghosting) is sometime in March.
    -March to the following August they date. Cut to the DNC in Brooklyn when Henry surprises Alex in August. (1 YR Mark)
    -In the states the election is always the beginning of November. So total time is Approx 1 year 2 months from Cake Gate to Election night.

    There are Americans who are as trapped as Henry. And it does tear you apart. You can be balanced and fulfill duties, or happy and yourself. There isn’t an inbetween with some families.

      The movie is full of one-liners like that. Alex’s secret service agent was given a few, I loved her in the movie. The movie is such a roller coaster of comedy, then intense drama. I hate to admit it, I have watched it at least 10 times. I enjoyed the book, I enjoyed the movie. I am going to re-read the book in the very near future, just to experience the stuff again that the movie had to eliminate. I am sure it has been said before, but I wish it had been made in to a series like Heartstopper or young royals. But we got a great movie instead.

      FYI, Sarah Shahi, who plays Zarah, is Iranian, so, although Iran is geographically in Asia, I believe iranians generally refer to themselves as Persian over Asian. Either way. The diverse representation is appreciated. Also shoutout to the OG "The L Word" fans who recognise Zahra as Carmen from that series. A true queer legend in her own right

    The book truly is beautiful, and I really recommend it as a read. The movie was a great romcom but the book has so much more depth in the characters. You get to see more of Alexs struggle with his sexuality, Henry's struggle with his grief over his father and the dynamics of his family. Hell, let's not forget the fact that Alex has a sister, who is a badass who we love. And we get to learn a lot more about Henrys sister too.
    Please read the book! Like I said, the movie is a great romcom, but the book holds so much more.

    These guys are a riot! So much fun to watch a movie like this with Brits who are "in the life." I am a straight old lady in Midwest USA. My late younger brother, who died of long term complications from brittle diabetes, was a closeted gay. He had one boyfriend intermittently for 15 years before he died. We did not find out his sexual preference until after his death. Too sickly to live on his own, my parents took care of him until his death. Our family was traditional and not homophobic. After my brother died I did contact his boyfriend to offer support.
    We can celebrate the absence of suicide, homicide, terminal illness, fatal accidents, etc. in this gay rom com. Hooray for the happy ending.

    Guys, I absolutely loved your reactions. I couldn't help but giggle, while having my morning coffee. I absolutely LOVE this book and love this movie. We rarely get books and movies like this where it's not loaded with tragedy and heart-break. It's so nice to see that first love with all its awkwardness, horniness, and open-hearted sincerity. My only minimal niggle is that I wish the movie had delved a little deeper into Henry's history with depression and his anger and sadness after his dad died. That was so fundamental to Henry's character. In the book, Beatrice says to Alex that Henry is the most caring, nurturing, selfless person but that he also has this deep, cavernous sadness in him and that Alex has to love that part of Henry too because it's part of who he is. I wish we could have seen more of that, how Alex helped save Henry, the prince who has it all except happiness.

      maybe in the sequel? because Nora DID mention that Pez said Henry pulls back into his cocoon every now and then. Sets it up for what you're describing. Their life in New York, maybe getting married (or not) and maybe adopting or having kids. Anything is possible, but they could also bring the depression and anxiety up more then...

After he comes back from Austin, he and Bea are in the garden and he mentions his mother is in Botswana saving elephants and Henry wonders if he needs to grow a pair of tusks to get her attention. I could see her in the sequel, but not June. There was no mention of her, at all, so that would be jarring. Even if it's not his mother, perhaps Bea and Philip could support him. At the end of the book, Philip starts to come around. I think Philip was also devastated after his father died and his mom became a recluse. Once their mom reasserted herself, I think Philip became less of a twat.

    In regards to "I heard the book is bad" it's definitely not for everyone. It's a piece of modern fiction, but requires much more suspension of disbelief than is typical for modern fiction. There's no small amount of wish fulfillment of the writer depicting our world but slightly better. Also Alex is incredibly smart but also about certain subjects he feels like an idiot for plot reasons.
    I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I think Alex and Henry's dynamic is much better in the book than the movie. But yeah... it does require you to turn your brain off at some parts to get the most enjoyment out of it.
    Also, Alex's and Henry's emails to each other are so incredible and really carry the romance. Them being mostly excluded from the movie is a huge loss.
