as a gay, im just happy we are getting more "light hearted" stuff like this romcom and Heartstoppers. cause there are a lot of lgbtq movies/shows where i have to be worried a character will be dead by the end.

[@johnnehrich9601]

I go back well before Stonewall. Back then, gay characters were either portrayed as silly while lesbians were often the killers. They couldn't even say the word. Characters were indicated by a limp wrist and a knowing smile. (In the 1960 Hitchcock movie, Psycho, which set new standards for depictions of blood, the first time a toilet was ever shown flushing, the movie opens with an unmarried couple after just obviously having a tryst in a hotel room, it was the inclusion of the word "transvestite" in the explanation at the end which most upset the censors. Hitchcock had to literally show them the dictionary definition that it meant cross-dressing, not some weird underground sexual practice.) I remember how we considered it such a mark of progress was the release of the film, Boys in the Band, a depiction of a bunch of stereotypical bitchy queens. (It kept me in the closet for years as I thought this was how all queer men acted and I had no desire to meet any.) I literally grew up not knowing any gay man. I would hear rumors about some of the top leading men in Hollywood, but my hopes would be dashed when I heard they had a wife (not knowing of bisexuality nor of studio-forced marriages to quell any rumors). I remember when actors of whatever persuasion were terrified to take any such queer role as it might mark them for life.

[@lizzyrank5405]

My goodness YES! I understand that sad stories also need to be shared cause thats reality, but so do good ones. Lest bring back the OG meaning of GAY and let's all have a gay old time especially in the movies💜

[@MoyAmaro]

Queer people don't usually get these cheesy romcoms, the movies are generally more drama oriented and traumatic so I loved this movie and I really enjoyed the book. A feel-good flick with hot actors is all we want sometimes.

[@luiscarracedo7793]

Is a film where you watch with a smile and feeling your heart warmed

[@kumaahito3927]

YES!! We need more gay romcoms for real. There are plenty with straight couples, but barely any with others.

[@crayolinnn]

The fact that even the cheesy romcom has angst is very sad for the queer community 😭🤣

"For Kristy" was actually a dedication to Taylor Zakhar Perezs sister who passed away either during the filming or afterwards.

[@roxystriar]

[@natf7942]

Yes, she passed away after filming finished but before it was released, so she never got to see it. 😟

[@dgirl786]

@@pixycomet3937 Not another book, unfortunately, though there is the extra chapter from Henry’s POV in the collector's edition they could work off of. Mathew (film director) and Casey (book author) have paired up to write the script together, commissioned by Amazon. This was announced at a fan screening back in May. So whatever we see in the sequel, will be from the same creative mind behind the original source material. There have been rumours we might even get a trilogy!

So happy yall reacted to this!

[@biancakison1310]

😘

[@deyneediaries]

The "For Kristy" at the end is a dedication to Taylor's (Alex) sister who was excited to see the first movie he's done where he is the main star but sadly passed away before the movie was released. Another sad fact is that one of Taylor's dogs died while he was filming the cake incident part of the movie and Nick (Henry) and Matthew (the director) tried to cheer him up as much they could.

[@loonylaura85]

I think the director had a picture of Taylor & his dog framed & put with other pictures in the White House set to cheer him up a bit.

[@ProofOfGrace82]

Watching Roxy lose her mind over the chemistry between these characters was perfection! She has never been so giddy in a reaction before! LoL

[@humblebeans5511]

You need to watch her reaction to Challengers. I thought she was going to pass out 😂💀

[@AbbeyIngvall]

23:54 - "What is the key around his neck? And why is it not me?" - greatest commentary to this film I've ever heard 🤣

[@Heida77]

I can't believe some people have said that Nicholas and Taylor have no chemistry. Their connection felt so organic and effortless. I could feel the angst, the hurt, the longing, the love and the friendship. I really love how the sex scene is so much more than sex, it's truly making love. It was so intimate that I felt like I was intruding on something very personal between two people. This one of the most beautiful, complex romances I've ever seen in a movie. But also a great depiction of what it's like to be in a position where you are afraid to be who you are.

[@besupaaa]

I love how much Roxy loves rom coms. ❤ It's so sweet. When I came out to my mom she told me not to tell anyone so people would thing she didnt raise me right, so when I see sweet scenes like that with him and his mom I always tear up.

[@roxystriar]

I’m sorry to hear that :( just know you are loved, appreciated and wanted by the right people BECAUSE of who you are ❤

I have seen dozens of reaction videos to this film. I have watched the movie everyday for 3 months - and will continue doing so. This is by far the best viewing of " Red, White and Royal Blue on u-tube. And Roxy, you pretty much spoke for me. Amazing that a man as handsome as Nick could be pushed out of the spotlight by another a beautiful as Taylor. Thanks so much for letting me watch this with you, AND for your post movie comments. ciao

[@gregorytoner6488]

There is sooo much more in the book you would love the book! In the book Alex is shorter than Henry so that’s what was so cute about the height difference jokes when Taylor is a tiny bit taller than Nick 🤣

[@nehasharma5931]

I don't watch much reaction videos of any channel, but gotta say I ABSOLUTELY love watching Roxy's genuine reactions... ESPECIALLY when she's smiling, being giddy and just falling for characters/actors.. She's just like one of us..!! It's a whole vibe..

A May Pole is a feature in a British spring open air gathering. It is literally a large white pole with coloured ribbons attached, people dance around it holding the ribbons to create patterns as they wrap around the pole. The whole thing is very joyous and ‘gay’ in it’s original meaning, hence the phrase associating it with Gay in its more common current usage.

[@h8rsRurmotivaters]

Roxy thirsting over Alex is so funny and correct

[@mgrainbowlady1991]

“If I’d had more warning I could have made you a PowerPoint presentation” In the book she did 😂

[@DramaQueenMalena]

There are a lot of lines that kind of "explain" why some things were changed. Here: they didn't have the time to include it in a 2 hour movie. In the book, Alex says: This changes nothing between us. In the movie, Henry says it, and Alex answers, "I was going to say the same thing." In the movie they do not say Henry's father was a James Bond actor but Henry's car, a lot of Henry's moves are from early James Bond movies.

[@tinatinkvirkvelia1317]

Roxy's reaction perfectly showcases what happened to *me* when I watched this the first time knowing nothing, how it took over my life and got me hyperfixated, and now after reading the book and millions upon millions of words of fanfics later - I still am 🤣

[@natf7942]

Lol same. Except I saw the trailer when it first dropped, watched it legit 20 times in a row, and ordered the book which I read twice before the movie came out. Then I watched the movie 4 times on the weekend it released and I'm reading fan fic every single day, I have way too many tabs open and tons of email notifs from AO3 lol.

[@dudieb]

I would just like to say I appreciate your open mindedness for this film. Not just because it is a gay film but because it was just a really nice romcom and no it is not academy award winning material but I beleive it is important that the LGBTQ+ community see normal. Some of the reactors, gay and straight, whatched this just to make fun of it. It is not that I think that reactors should not react honestly but just say this is not for me or I didn’t enjoy it but don’t spend the whole movie make fun of it. Also, some might think that a story about the romance between a gay prince and the Bi son of the president is a fairy tale but the real fairy tale here is that a democratic with a bi son won in Texas the most closed minded state in this country. Yes, I am ashamed to say I am a Texan. I also have appreciated your reaction to Twilight. You seemed to like it but were honest enough to call out when it got cheesy with out belittling the acotors or the movie.

[@jhor729]

❤

[@jhor729]

Ay! There is always hope for the state of Texas. Texas doesn't exist without its people, and people change their minds.

[@Pathfinder197]

Glad they’re doing a sequel. Hoping they’re getting all the principals back, including Uma, Sarah Shahi and Stephen Fry. Uma and Sarah were perfect in their roles. And this may be because it’s Stephen Fry playing the role, but I just got the sense that the King might potentially be deeply closeted himself. I know the book’s different, but it would be quite the twist if that were to be part of the sequel. You guys might also want to react to Nicholas Galitzine in The Idea of You with Anne Hathaway, and Mary and George with Julianne Moore.

[@geltot2411]

Earlier H: I can't afford for you to fall in love with me A: Get over yourself Your Majesty! Later A: *plays "Can't Help Falling In Love With You"* im OBSESSED with this movie 😭💞 I love your reaction! Hope you both already got to read the book by now 😊 EXCITED for the sequel and looking forward to your reaction vid then 😃

[@rociogonzalez3266]

Fun facts: - Alex has a sister in the book that moves back after college and lives in the white house, Alex and June are very close - Miguel does not exist in the book but there are other characters and side stories - The book focuses more in politics - In the book you can find the emails that are later hacked. I personally loved that they used an email format and not just regular text - And last but not least, Nora (Alex's best friend) is also bisexual

[@kagisonko3279]

Roxy is so smitten with Taylor, but also shipping both the prince and him so hard. I smiled throughout the reaction

[@Ethos10128]

Roxy is so real for this reaction

[@luisagostojr6790]

I just found this channel and Roxy had me kicking my feet with her 😂

[@gailoverholt6498]

The budget for the movie was incredibly low. I think around $50 million. Everything was filmed in England. And many viewers (not me!) complained about the background cgi. Didn’t bother me at all, so I’m glad you were impressed. Delightful review!

[@SpookyBibi24]

For RWRB, I do believe it's better to watch the movie first and then read the book. You don't get disappointed that some stuff and characters unfortunately had to get cut off in the movie, and you get great physical references to picture the book scenes.

[@evathommessen215]

I agree totally! The book is so wonderful, as is also the movie. But the book is more, their thoughts and reactions come forward, we see everything from Alex's view.

[@TheMermaidBru]

I love this movie so much, and Taylor and Nicholas did such an incredible job portraying all sides and shades of Alex and Henry's relationship, it's insane. Chemistry off the charts!!! Also, I love how many times you guys mentioned Henry as a James Bond wannabe, cause you totally missed the part of the debrief that Alex says Henry's dad was a beloved actor that played James Bond before he passed. He is James Bond's son. And a prince. And he has Bond's actual car. So yes, Bond is kinda part of him lol Also, the guy in the end telling the King to tell them not to go public, and calling the king "grandpa" is Henry's older brother, Philip. Not his cousin. He is the heir. Anyways, loved loved loved your reaction, Roxy represented me watching this lol Same reactions lol Love it!

[@xephrenata]

[@notjustafangirl7313]

It's insane how accurately I can quote this movie for having only watched it all the way through a couple times and reading the book twice. I guess I've just watched the individual scenes a million times and memorized them all. I'm glad you're reacting! I also love that you guys mentioned their acting in the Kensington scene after Alex stormed the castle. If I remember correctly, the director said in an interview that they came back to that scene after lunch and Nicholas (Henry) heard Taylor (Alex) start crying behind him while they were doing the scene and it made him cry in response, so they really were reacting to each other. Also, I didn't see anyone mention it yet, but Nicholas Galitzine (Henry's actor) was actually cast to be He-Man in the upcoming Amazon movie, which Andrew's comments about him being in the Arrowverse reminded me of. He's also not naturally blond, they dyed his hair, and he is currently blond again for another movie, along with the RWRB sequel and He-Man.

[@luiscarracedo7793]

I loved the reaction! It is a film that allows you to dream, that even though things get bad, love can be above all. The chemistry between the protagonists is incredible, the small gestures, the looks, Henry's panic at feeling like he is in a prison without allowing himself to express his love for Alex. Alex's complete amazement at Henry's first kiss turns his world upside down. How Henry was already in love from the beginning but hid it under layers of conceit and snob and how Alex fell deeply in love when he met the real Henry, being the only one who could see through the armor that protected Henry's heart.

[@HurryImOnFire]

Roxy if you're gonna read a book this year make it this one pleasee, it goes a lot deeper and explores more storylines and characters (Alex has a sister!!), and just shows more of their relationship which truly its what we're all here for ❤

What Henry said was... "I am as gay as a maypole." You guys can Google it up! It's basically a tall pole wrapped by colorful cloths. That's why Henry said he is as gay as that.

[@shawnsackett554]

Glad someone was paying attention to what he(Henry)said to Alex.❤

[@justbeeyourself]

a couple questions answered: - philip, the one who called the king grandpa, is henry's older brother. he was the one getting married in the beginning of the film when our two leads ruined his cake. - the reason alex has the key at the end when they get to the house is because he asked for it right after his mother won her election. henry asks alex what they're going to do next and alex asks him if he still has the key on him (which roxy is right, he wears on the chain under his shirt). the bloopers and deleted scene from the film are adorable, too!

[@selkiefluff]

I watched this movie last year, and as a Fellow Gay I'm glad it exists, we need a variety of upbeat gay films, but it was also so damn ridiculous lmao (and I say this as a romcom fan). When Stephen Fry showed up as the homophobic king of England I swear I nearly peed myself from laughing. I sent no-context screenshots of this movie to all my friends in the middle of the night, we all thought this was a collective hallucination.

There's a valid reason for that. His sister, Kristy died last June, just 2 months shy of RWRB coming out. He took time off to be with family and mourn her. That's why he hasn't been in any new stuff since RWRB. I'm sure he'll appear in something in the near future.

This movie has become my new favorite film since I watched it last year. I have been making a series of videos analyzing it, working on pt. 2 right now. I love that you noticed the level of careful detail. Eg., in the phone-call scene that you mentioned, you do see the phone on the nightstand, as they talk about the name of Henry's dog. Then, when the call ends, we see that the lock screen image on the phone is a dog.
