Homosexuality exists in nature. Homophobia is man-made.> *kisses her (Carole)
: Is that what you wanted to know? If a girl could turn you on?
: it would be so much easier.
It would really have been easier if he'd been able to love a girl and run from his homosexuality.> : I love a guy. I know you can't stand it, but that's how it is. It's not a question of gay or straight. It's just a question of love. If only being gay were a choice and not being attached to your soul. Oh, to love someone without questioning yourself whether you're gay or straight. It would be a relief and a straight hug if I were able to love without having questions to be answered.

"It's not a question of gay or straight. It's just a question of love."Thank the stars Laurent chose to speak up rather than to die. I can’t tell you how much I love this film—the story is just so incredibly well-done. It’s rare to see a movie from this era that doesn't just lean into tragedy, and my heart is honestly so happy that Laurent and Cedric actually got their happy ending. They deserved it.
Will definitely gonna rewatch this soon😍
