    I'd like to watch it if I have the chance. I have read very good things about it.

    Hi,
    I am excited to see the movie. Wish I were still living in Boston, I will go to the independent cinema around Cambridge, Porter Square to see the movie.
    Pity, now I am living in a rural area in Indonesia.

    I haven't seen it and the movie may not come to my hyper-conservative town, but I am reading the book and really like it!

    I read the book and the movie and I would highly recommend it. I definitely liked how the film did the movie justice.

    I'm keen! The trailer was great, think I'll get read by watching Call Me By Your Name - which I'm yet to watch.

    Hello All....I watched A video by a black guy who said that when watching The Black Panther he, for the first time, felt a real connection with the characters. He saw things in the home of the antigonist that looked like his home. The older people in the movie looked like his grandparents and people who he knew growing up. So the story and the characters became very real to him....he felt that he was part of the story. That’s how I felt about “Love Simon”. So much of what Simon was thinking...I thought. So much of what he went through...I went through. The two scenes where Simon said; “I’m gay” just thrust right through me. It was me, I had to do that. I said those words. I suffered the same fear. I cried....just could not help it. Ok, I know that it is basically a high school romance story, but to me it is more than that. It’s a story that I have lived, I just wish that my life at 17 would have turned out like Simon’s did. I had to wait a long time for my “happy ending”. Thanks to a lot of people here on empty closets I have made it to a much happier life than I had for so many years. So....if you haven’t seen “Love, Simon” go see it, you won’t be sorry!
