Love, Simon
Love, Simon is a warm, funny high-school romance about a teen navigating first love and a big personal secret. The story is gentle by teen-movie standards, but it carries PG-13 language, sexual references, a blackmail subplot, and a party scene with underage drinking.
Best suited for teens 13 and up, ideally watched together so you can chat about the bigger themes afterward.

A classmate discovers Simon's secret from his email and begins blackmailing him, threatening to out him publicly; this pressure runs through much of the film.
Two bullying students climb on a cafeteria table and make sexually suggestive gestures and sounds directed at Simon and another student, using homophobic slurs. Other students and staff quickly condemn the behavior.
A high school house party shows teens drinking; one character becomes visibly drunk.
