Naomi & Ely's No Kiss List
Naomi and Ely have loved each other their whole lives, even though Ely isn't exactly into girls. The institution of a "No Kiss List" has prevented the two from rifts in the past, but bonds are tested when they both fall for the same guy. The two reconcile, and Naomi finally accepts his sexuality. Ely, meanwhile, has finally found love and is settling down with Bruce 2. The film ends with Naomi stating that relationships and friendships are different kinds of love, but are still love and therefore, can have the same effects.
The film had its world premiere at the Outfest LGBT Film Festival on July 17, 2015. The film was released on September 18, 2015 on Netflix. “Naomi and Ely's No Kiss List” was written by Amy Andelson and Emily Meyer, and directed by Kristin Hanggi. It is based on the 2007 book of the same name by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. The film stars Victoria Justice, Pierson Fodé, and Matthew Daddario.
