Try these:
Parting Glances (the movie that launched Steve Buscemi's career)
A Very Natural Thing
Making Love (Harry Hamlin, yum!)
BEAUTIFUL THING (oh my GOD, you wanna talk gay romance?)
Get Real
Edge of Seventeen (not quite so much a romance as it is a
coming-of-age-and-falling-in-love)
Green Plaid Shirt (references AIDS, but it's in the background)
Defying Gravity

Give me time, I'll think of more.
