Movie lovers out there mark your calendars and save the date for Armie Hammer’s and newcomer Timothée Chalamet’s film titled Call Me by Your Name (2017, Luca Guadagnino).
The film is an adaptation of the 2007 award-winning, coming-of-age novel by American writer André Aciman set in the dreamy Italy during the 1980s. The story follows Oliver’s (Hammer) and Elio’s (Chalamet) brief, yet passionate summer love affair all the way through the next twenty years (or at least that’s how it is in the book). Their story started when the visiting handsome 24-year-old scholar Oliver stayed as an academic houseguest at Elio’s family home in Northern Italy for six weeks.
Oliver, a graduate student, served as Professor Perlman’s (Michael Stuhlbarg) intern for the summer and he was tasked with helping the professor with his paperwork. Professor Perlman is Elio’s father with whom Elio had a close relationship with.
Call Me by Your Name is one of the most anticipated movies of the year having made quite an impression during its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival as well as at the Berlinale earlier this year. Critics call the movie “intimate and piercingly honest” (The Hollywood Reporter); “sexy, sad, and funny” (Vanity Fair).

(2015, Guy Ritchie) where he played Illya Kuryakin. Anyway, critics called Armie’s performance in Call Me by Your Name beautiful while Vulture said the entire cast delivered “pitch-perfect performances.”

Happy viewing!
Can’t wait to see the film… The trailer looks excellent!
As hot as the actors are, this is a hard pass for me.
I don’t want to look at another french gay love tragedy, where the two love interest, once again, do NOT end up with each other, due to age, distance, family status, etc. Etc. Etc.
At this age in 2017, I am not interested in looking at yet another unrequited love captured on film within our own already very small community.
Give me a Jennifer Lopez rom-com script, starting Matt Boner, and Taye Diggs as the leads, THEN , we’ll talk. ☕
wow, that looks so hot!!
Man with boy…hot!
An emotionally painful story covering two decades of tragedy over triumph.
An engaging encounter for those who are captivated by others’ misery.
Upon reading reviews of the novel, I came to the conclusion that it’s not a good match. I’m a guy who embraces the human spirit’s ability to resolve issues, to protect itself, and to win over adversity … or at least about break even. This story is a wonderful encounter for those who thrive on immersing themselves in stories of others whose lives are miserable because of their own repeated questionable behaviors and life choices.
Well i guess he needs some long shorts lol… doesnt make sense…anyways he steal my eyes im in love lol
I hated the movie and stopped watching the DVD as soon as I saw the picture with the pentagram in the older guy’s bedroom when the kid was sniffing his bathing suit. W. t. f.? Was that really necessary? I don’t know any more about the film after that but I hate the connection being made between homosexuality and devil worship.
Regardless of the variety of opinions about the movie itself, I was totally floored by the last 7 minutes of the film by the incredible acting of Timothée Chalamet!!
So believable and sincere!
Let us see: older man trolls and picks up underage student for love fest. But, since this is gay love, any suggestion of illegal and weird pedophilia, for which Jerry Sandusky went to jail (and should) or Harvey Weinstein could (but likely wont) is (drum roll)….HOMOPHOBIA..because it is our community not their breeder community. Better yet: let us really demonstrate how liberated we are and wear black for Me Too Oscar show and give THIS TREMENDOUS MOVIE an Academy Award. Hypocrites.
wasn’t the boy like 17? or 18?
