Bros kept trying to imply it was the first gay movie, or even first gay romcom, but it was the first gay romcom that was created and released by a major studio whose initial release was a “wide” release in more than one country.
Torch Song Trilogy (1988)? The Birdcage (1996)? I don’t know about “more than one country”, but they were major studio movies with wide releases.
New Line isn’t one of the “major studios”, so Torch Song is out, and I’m not sure that Birdcage is a romcom.
Maurice, Trick, and The Broken Heart’s Club, are also older and much better than bros, but not major studio releases.
But all of these movies are watchable, so they’re better than Bros.

The Birdcage is definitely a romcom. Two for one, in fact!
