The energy in this movie pulsates off the screen. I become totally absorbed.
Having grown up in a family that nearly worshiped music with one aunt graduating from the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music as a Concert Level Pianist, I feel the energy of the soul in this movie. I studied piano for three years under a graduate of the Peabody Conservatory of Music, Baltimore. She told me that I "spoke" through the keyboard from my soul. I never pursued that. When Johnnie (Nicholas Galitzine) plays the violin, I become overwhelmed with emotion and excitation.

It is very seldom I give a *10 to any movie. "Heartstopper" is definitely a 10.
As an aging Boomer who came out in 1968 with my first partner, the emotions this movie triggered were off the charts. Those godawful fears. Those axxieties! Accepting one's queerness takes a lot of energy in sociaties and cultures who simply do not want to accept those who are different from the majority society. I have yet to understand why my sexual orientation is such an issue for a segment of straight society. Why does it matter? We are what we are.
"Heartstopper" is superbly acted, on target and uplifting. In so many respects, Charlie and Nick are what nearly every young gay experiences and goes through until self-acceptance is finally and fully embraced. "We" do not fit just one mold, every bit the rainbow we celebrate.
