Love, Simon
A closeted gay teen navigates high school, family, and friends while secretly communicating with a mysterious classmate online—until a dangerous secret threatens to expose him.
“Everyone deserves a great love story.”
Synopsis
Everyone deserves a great love story, but for 17-year-old Simon Spier, it's not that simple. He's being blackmailed by a fellow student, Martin, who has discovered Simon's secret: he's gay. To make the problem go away, Simon must humiliate himself and everyone he cares about by revealing his secret to the entire school. But when Martin makes a new threat, Simon must decide how far he's willing to go to keep his life from being exposed.

A crew of 83+ credited
Why a floor?
This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.

✅ Made its money back — grossed 3.9× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
