11 Non-Monogamous Movies To Watch With Your Valentines
If you’re stuck on what to do for this season of love, my queer polyamorous film-loving ass has your back! I regularly review non-monogamy in the media for my supporters on Patreon. I’ve compiled a list of my personal favourites (so far!) for your viewing pleasure, with romantically transgressive films all the way from the 1930s to the modern day.
The vast majority of these feature open and consensual non-monogamous dynamics - though with varying amounts of drama and ethics, depending on the situations they are in - and some of them are not explicitly non-monogamous, but I’ve included them as they will definitely stoke a lot of discussion and reflection on love, relationships, and dating. If you’ve seen any of these, what did you think of them? And are there any I missed?
*Some of these explore non-traditional and even relationship anarchist dynamics in subtle ways!
