When I started this list, in 2012, I was 23 years old.

Now in 2025, at 35, life seems to have a different meaning and some films that I thought were so meaningful may have been an illusion, masked by a still-developing mind, of someone who was still understanding himself as gay, as a person and as part of a society.

Recently, I decided to update this list again, and I will most likely start reordering some positions as well.

Suggestions are always welcome! Email: saulo.victor@ me . com

If you REALLY enjoy watching good movies in every genre, and appreciate a good story and characters.. Being gay or not, it doesn't matter: Love is Universal. Don't get me wrong girls, but this list is "specially" for Guys. Who wants to feel connected somehow to another story. And maybe help them somehow. I don't know... I tried not to be too pretentious with "cult" movies, but also I tried not to be stupid with my choices. You see, I like Scorsese, Hitchcock, Kubrick, Malick, Kurosawa, Coppola... so I guess I'm a movie passionate in the average. =D  I decided to include the BAD ones too, so you won't waste your precious time! Check out my comments about the movies! The bads are at the end of the list! So, for now, there are few of them, but soon as I watch, I'll update! xD

It's in preference order!
