Review of Call Me by Your Name (2017) by Orangedroog — 20 Dec 2017
Saw this movie at it's final showing at the Sundance Film Festival and it's final moments did something to me that only one other film has ever dared to do, with limited success. This movie drives home every buried emotion a human has ever had by daring to be unabashedly romantic, and so cheesy it becomes authentic.
Never has a script enticed such an emotional response from my core. The last time I remember a film even approaching the emotional grandeur of Call Me By Your Name was The Place Beyond the Pines. Prepare to sit through the last moment of the credits, as the final shot of the film is the most powerful shot ever committed in a romance movie.
Regardless of sexual preference, regardless of how emotionless you are, just give yourself over to the life-improving movie that is Call Me By Your Name and let every stifled emotion you didn't know existed inside you come to the surface.
