Review of Call Me by Your Name (2017) by Sanyrub — 26 Aug 2018

Perfect story about anybody´s first, youngest and truest love story or at least first huge crush for the people who didn´t live such thing. Fantastic cinematography, it feels you are in the spot from minute one.

The film grabs you little by little. And there´s this feeling you know how it is going to end, which makes it very very effective and affecting once it comes. By the whole second hour of the picture you are totally in.

In love with the characters, with the vibe, with those parents... Perfectly executed, it is one of those rare cases one can consider a film flawless, whether the story is your cup of tea or not (it should be for everybody, love, youth, etc), it is flawlesly conveyed.

It grabs your heart in ways... let´s say you thought it wasn´t going to hit you like that at first but in the end it does, and for days. A similar experience to that of Moonlight, although the latter was a more innovative piece and full of heavy stuff.

In this one, the problem and "villanin" is "just" time. Which is not little. Amazing life lessons we can get from here. Special mention to Armie Hammer in the first role in which he truly excels and of course to Timothee, this young actor that suffers that thing, that beautiful and hurtful thing called love, and that will probably stay with you for days.

Especilly after his amazing last 15 minutes where he shows all the hurt and love a young person can live in this situation. Perfect piece, something to behold. Best film of 2017.
