the story isn’t about being “pervy” or supposed to be about the age range, it’s about love and about discovering yourself.

The book gives slightly more details. Oliver, in my opinion, could never fully come to terms with being in love with Elio-he justified his own decision to live a parallel life because, for all his bravado, charisma, and being okay with everything, he was not okay with himself and that is equally heartbreaking.

That was anything but a happy ending imho. You can tell that both of them are still crazy about each other, but after so many years, time restrained them to express themselves to each other. They were just talking about the past and their happiest moments. Their love was unfulfilled. Plus Oliver got his life kind of sorted out. But nothing was mentioned about Elio's love life. It's crazy sad if Elio is still not over his first true love after so many years. Oliver is going home tomorrow and that what happened that summer is gonna go back to cherished memories. Add to all that, the atmosphere of that day in the ending. The fact that the environment was described exactly as it was that summer except now many characters are dead makes the last pages haunting.

Most of the "false outrage" expressed to (and about) this movie is by people too closed minded to even watch it... which pretty much sums them up (or, at least, their maturity levels). If they watched the movie taking into consideration all of the elements of the story (not just the one that sticks in their craw, like a thorn in a paw), they'd see how beautiful and true it is. It's a story of first love between 2 highly intelligent and unique people. It's not trying to be anything else than a snapshot of a formative summer.

I love this film. I was 17 in 1983, like Elio, and I remember that summer very well: radio songs, cars and all. I went camping with my friends on the beaches of Sardinia. The best moments were when I went to sleep in my sleeping bag after smoking pot and I looked up to the starry sky, so very many stars. Before falling asleep I recalled the moments I spent with my boyfriend one year earlier and I felt ecstatic and painful joy, and sent kisses to his face which I saw in the sky . The story had gone by but the wonderful stars were there like an eternal promise. Elio brought me back to those moments. I love this film.

Guadagnino is an amazing director. Btw, his next film is a remake of Dario Argento's Suspiria. Otherwise I would cringe, but I'm pretty sure he's going to come up with something special.

Some people might think the movie is slow because in the book Elio is very naughty in his thoughts, he starts thinking about sex, and very graphic, at almost the same time he saw him for the first time. However, there is no voice-over in the movie, so we don't know what he is thinking, in the book the poor boy is horny all the time. The movie is much more delicate if compared to the book. 10/10

Danilo Rodrigues I agree. He was very horny in the book--I would say he's sexually fluid. He really enjoyed his time with Marzia in the book as well as the lady in Rome. The book was about Elio discovering himself and ultimately creating a lovely bond with Oliver. In the movie, I didn't quite get that from Elio.

I give the movie a super 10. Sublime- thats what it is.

For everyone saying that the 24 year old protagonist is preying on the 17 year old. You guys are forgetting that this film is based in Italy where the Age consent is 14 So the older guy is not doing anything illegal. Even at that he’s not with a 14 y/o boy.

This begs the question why in all hell are you talking about the laws binding the culling of homosexuals when it is not relevant in any situation concerning this movie?

This is my favorite movie of all time. Nothing comes close to making me feel so many different emotions. Also, I love that we get a gay movie where they guys don’t end up gay bashed, diseased or where someone got kicked out or rejected, they weren’t a joke, they weren’t hated on, it was just a real and beautiful relationship. It feels amazing to be portrayed in cinema and be taken seriously, not a side show or the goofy friend. I hate seeing stereotypes, we aren’t all queens with the most stylish wardrobes and a degree in interior design. Easily my favorite movie and I think it’s a huge step for gay cinema, I hope more film makers take note. Cheers!

It's a 10 and HANDS DOWN the Best Movie of the Year....it is magnificent.

Read the book when it was on the bestseller list about 5 years ago. It made me very sad because you knew how it was going to end

I was expecting so much from this film after hearing so many great things about it. Despite the recent Armie Hammer allegations, I put them aside because I am a lover of art, and went with an open mind and heart watching this film. My opinion: The film has spectacular cinematography. The mood is unlike any other film I have seen. It has a very European, raw, feel to it physically, and emotionally. The nudity also gives this film so much more realness. The performance of Elio's parents is seriously breathtaking. They are both *outstanding* actors. And I LOVE the colors throughout the film, and how they change as the main character Elio changes. It is very metaphorical. Last but not least, Timothy's performance made my heart melt. He is the most talented young actor I have seen in a very long time. I could relate to his restless, curious, innocent, eager, playful, and intense feelings. What ruined the film for me is Armie's performance. I found myself being analytical of his performance because his character reminded me of his every day self in interviews, and in other movies. To me, that is a tall-tale sign that someone is not the best actor. When I watch a film, I don't want to be reminded of who the actors played in other roles. Or thinking they talk the same, behave the same, or have the same vibe as their other roles or even their public persona. I am not sure if I am just biased after it has been shared with the world that Armie is not only a cannibal, but also potentially abusive towards past partners. This film would have been 10/10 if they would have had a different actor for Oliver, but I can't really think of who would fit the role? The film overall would be a masterpiece if it wasn't for my perception of Armie not being on Timothy or the parent's acting level. Also, the dad's monologue is probably words to keep in one's heart for life. Very profound.

Go see the film. This is about as useful as having my Dyson crit the thing. Don't go by the clips alone. Remember too it's looking back to one summer in Italy of 1983 it's quite simply beautiful.

If they did sequels to this in the manner of the Before Sunset series then I'd be totally down.

There is no revenue from VCR/DVD/On Demand, or broadcast rights included. Yeah... I'm sure money had nothing to do with it. smh

The most important point of this review is to see it in the theater so you can appreciate the AMAZING cinematography and the way that Luca touches all 5 senses. Michael Stuhlbarg's monologue at the end is the father we all wish we could have. Armie Hammer was brilliant with the number of levels he brought to this role. Timothee Chalamet - WOW They way Luca directed him in that closing scene.... with the change of expressions.. and that one look directly at the camera..... just to let you know that he was going to be OK.

It didn’t win best picture but this film is destined for the ages.

I think people are being extra wary of the age gap because of what has been happening in hollywood lately. It's a shame because I think had it been any other time, people would just ignore it. It's such a good movie. Like, c'mon. If you did not feel anything after watching, maybe you didn't get it, or you're trying to prove something. It's one of those movies that left me thinking for days. I've read the book afterwards because I was so intrigued.Then I rewatched it again. I understood many scenes I didn't get before. And then I rewatched it again and again, and I still keep getting "Aha!" moments from noticing tiny details in almost every scenes. It's genius.

Great reviews this week, guys. Nice surprise on a Monday.

I just subscribed to your channel guys. This was a very informative discussion. Thank you.

The fly at the end is completely voluntary. It is part of the many "memento mori" of the movie. Spot all the flies in the movie, and you'll see it's a recurring metaphor for time and the inevitability of loss and decay. It's a reference to Renaissance paintings, like the serenade scene with the guitar, and all the fruits (references to "natures mortes" and "memento mori" of the Renaissance). It goes with Oliver's research on Heidegger and ancient Greeks too. There's stuff in this movie everyone understands perfectly, the feelings, and there's also stuff for the cultured that are so fucking good as well, you have no idea.

There seems to be a lot of Americans on here struggling to realise that their country where the age of consent can be as high as 18 is the odd one out not Italy/Europe where the age of consent is around the 15 yrs age.

This film is so beautiful and the romance in this just comes across so natural. Hard to describe the emotions I get when I watch this film.

And now I have another film passion to add to Before Sunset, Boyhood and Her at the top of of 21st century movies. Entirely in agreement with this review.

She looks so pretty today

Saw this movie two times last month and it truly has the power to teleport you to the Italy of the 80s. So amazing. ❤️ Can’t wait to see lady bird!

I agree with every single word said here and it echoes almost all other reviews i watched and read. it also echoes what I felt watching the movie (twice so far). which is another reason to love this masterpiece. it is so clear in its message that the take away is universal. much like a brilliant professor walking into class and teaching so clearly that all of the different students walk away with the same understanding, cause he reached all of them. this movie though very subtle manages to deliver its message so clearly and the only blockade is if the receiver refuses to open up to it. it was not just a movie... it was a life transforming lesson taught beautifully and very clearly

I love it when they gush over a great movie. I get so excited for them.

Great opinions. At the beginning of Feb 18, we have now heard so many background stories from the cast. In the last year, Timothee Chalomet has matured under the guidance of Armie and Luca. This movie so closely resembles my emotional life, and I too don't really want a sequel. I now know after half a century (yes) that this sadness too will pass. So moving and wonderful and is probably the best movie I have ever experienced.

I have not stopped thinking about this movie since I saw it a couple weeks ago. Absolutely beautiful in every way.

Flies are in the movie for a reason (representing their short life span as the same as their love for each other that summer) and I bet they added the one on his shoulder at the end in post production.

I love this film soooo much. Before I see it I didn't realize I'm gonna love it but I am. And I hope Luca would not make a sequel bc this film is already perfect. I wanna keep this beautiful memmory by only.

I watched the film and read the book, both are exceptional in their own medium. The film brought the life of what was written in book especially the characters of Elio and Oliver. This is the best film of the year and too sad it so happen that it was shown only in limited theaters. Call Me By Your Name and The Front Runner(novels/books )are among my favorite collection books. on my shelve. I love the intensity of the acting of both actors especially , no dialogue but the body language.

It's a masterpiece. One of the most beautiful movies ever.

Lol the first paragraph of this video 's description doesn't include Timothee Chalamet

Fantastic review... you got a new subscriber in me.

It’s so beautiful. So heartbreaking. I hope it wins best picture. Nothing makes me feel like this.

This movie moved me beyond words. It resonated so much, even though I'm not a male nor gay nor Italian. The acting was close to perfect.

Feel like I am in love while watching this movie even though I went out to the theater by my own.

The fly was in at least two other scenes throughout the movie, and it still bothers me to know what it means (if it means anything at all). It might reflect on Elio's inner world or his connection to nature.

I want Alonso's hoodie!

Love, love, love your review of CMBYN!!!!!

What do you mean "he's everything that Elio isn't"? They're both really smart, book worms and have success with women. If by "everything" you mean Oliver is tall and hunky, that's a meaningless and, more importantly to your point, singular difference.

This is a great review of a truly great movie. It is the finest film I have watched in a very long time, perhaps ever!

Elio seemed so mature and sophisticated for a 17 year old and Oliver I believed to be closer to 30 than 24. I was found the location breath taking and totally romantic. I loved that Young Elio is being open too love in so many ways.

This looks great. Love Armie Hammer, hopefully it'll live up to the hype

Read the book or get the audiobook it really good.

Who knew, all we needed for The Lone Ranger to have critical acclaim was for it to be a love story between The LR and Tonto, then 10s all around....but really...wow, they're laying it on THICK

OK. You got me. I must see this one.

I noticed the fly too!

I want sequels. If you just had Before Sunrise, you'd feel like it's perfect in itself, and doesn't need a sequel. When done right, seeing characters grow and evolve is a beautiful experience, and I want it for Elio and Oliver.

highly suggest the book for anyone who loved the movie.

how did Timothee Chalamet do it, how did that end credits shot work? apparently they installed a camera in the wall above the fireplace, no operator, and he listened to the song, Visions of Gideon, through an earpiece to mirror its structure. Timothee called it an 'acting experiment'.
