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.

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!

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.

Really beautiful and tender.

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.

@starkgwen 9 ай бұрын

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 9 ай бұрын

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 9 ай бұрын

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.

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.

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.

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.

This , as someone who went into the book not knowing exactly how it was written it was definitely a bit disappointing for me but I won't lie I didn't hate it I definitely liked it more after I read it, it has become such a comfort, light read for me and I just love Henry and Alex

Same for me, I didn’t really like the writing style BUT the characters, the dialogue and the mails 🫣😱 I just fell in love 🥰😍

@hachiko9 9 ай бұрын

Same here! The writing style was not the best, imo. Sometimes some sentence structures or wording annoyed me a little 😅 But the development of the story, the growth of the characters, their relationship to each other, not just Alex and Henry but all the secondary characters too, was amazing. It's a very enjoyable read, imho

I’ll be honest, I think I personally appreciated the book much more after I watched the movie? Because I didn’t hate the book, but I’d rate it as 7/10. However, in comparison to the movie, the book is *amazing*

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.

I love how you both allow yourselves to be part of the movie. So often in reactions people step on parts of the show and I liked how it went back and forth from the movie to you two. Oh and Miguel! I swear he's the Disney Evil Queen of the movie.

I enjoyed the book. It was a cheesy romance and I like cheesy romances. Not everything needs to be serious and high brow.
