Le monde de Nate

For Disney + standards, this film is good. But for films in general, its fine but forgettable. I think it was weird that Disney was commercializing so much of there content for one. But other than that its just a Broadway fan service kind of film. And hits all the notes that you would expect from a Disney straight to streaming service kind of film to do.

Congratulations Disney on your first movie with a gay lead without even mentioning words like "gay". But I guess baby steps are also steps. Nevertheless, it was a fun no-brainer movie worth watching!

Queerbaiting at its finest.... I get that you can't really show all thats in the book but wtf! If you're gonna make a movie based on a book that explores themes about sexuality, breaking norms, and discovering yourself inspite of what the world around you says, than do that!! Don't just hint to Nate's queerness, or don't just show his only interaction to a lgbtq couple (and that too is just alluded to) is to ask for directions! The movie on its own is great, the fact that disney kept dropping hints of the character possibily being gay but not just outright saying it, says alot about them. They still need to make this movie profitable, so they'll hint to it, but never outright admit it.

There is no doubt that Rueby Wood is a talented kid. His enthusiasm as Nate is infectious and you have to cheer him on. Nate's parents aren't bad parents, just a little unaware. Nate's brother, a high-school jock, is embarrassed by his somewhat effete younger brother. And Nate's friend Libby, his enabler, is a little slow in understanding Nate's concept of girlfriend. But Lisa Kudrow, is wonderful as his would be mother and slightly kooky Aunt Heidi. This is a well-intentioned film with a strong message of letting people be who they are. With heart and some terrific song and dance numbers, this is an entertaining film.

In this film the story has a very positive development despite reality.

The story has a nice message about clinging to your dreams despite the odds, although like any other Disney movie, everything is resolved easily and simply, which is not plausible in this reality where we all fight to achieve our dreams. Another thing that doesn't quite convince me is that the sexuality of the main character is never explicitly mentioned, sometimes it is alluded to, but it is never directly said if he is gay or not, maybe it shouldn't matter so much, but the script raises it, then it should be developed with importance. But leaving that aside, I think it's an entertaining movie, at certain points funny, that meets the children's audience by delivering this story about dreams and the courage to fight for them. The production at first looks like a TV movie, but then it improves, especially in the musical numbers, the songs used are catchy even though there are not many. The performances are good, but Lisa Kudrow stands out for her excellent performance.

I think it works very well for children, but not emphasizing the diversity of sexual orientations there is, and that it is completely normal, does not help much with my perception, despite being entertaining and that opens the conversation about dreams and goals.
