Amid the summer splendor of 1980?s Italy, Elio and Oliver discover the heady beauty of awakening desire that will alter their lives forever. Review: 100/10 - Makes me sob every time. Genuinely a masterpiece and I love movies from this director as well. 100/10 recommend if you have an open mind and are a very feel-wise person. Review: Excellent movie. The acting was every good - Excellent movie. The acting was every good. This is one of those movies that can move the sole and make you wish just once you could experience a love so great that it would break all social boundaries. Update: I want to add that I am a movie buff and have been since I was a teenager. I always watch a movie several times to evaluate the acting, focusing each time on a different character. For me a great movie is one which takes me into the characters world. The characters must be believable. Does the movie affect the viewer positive or negatively. With all that said the characters of this movie are truly believable. Timothee Chalamet has the ability to say with body language and facial expressions unspoken words as does Armie Hammer. I could feel Elio’s pain and longing. I felt Elio’s nervousness the night Oliver finally gave in. I understood the guilt Elio felt the next morning. The book says in words what the viewer had to capture from Elio’s actions. Yet no guilt could stop the feelings that Elio had for Oliver and vice-a-versa. In life some things seem disgusting to think about but in the heat of the action everything is beautiful. There is an old saying the bedroom is undefiled. It is not a matter of what is right or wrong but was it given or taken from the heart. This movie ignited memories for me and my teenage years and the struggling with hormones. It brought back all my inhibitions the first time I participated in sex with another person. At that age so many things can go through your mind and nothing is more reveling or can create so much insecurity then our own nudity and experience. I would have given anything if my dad would have or even could have talked to me the way Elio’s dad talks to him. Why do we put so much pressure on youth and growing up? These two were bonded for years after, branded with an eternal love that they refused to act on. I hate that desertcart has labeled this movie “Gay & Lesbian” because a lot of people may not watch it because of that label. To all the parents out there the conversation between Elio and his father could change the relationship between you and your son or daughter forever. I would give anything to experience a love so great that it would override all inhibitions and stand time. I give it 5-Stars and highly recommend it.

A treasure
This story has caught me two weeks ago and left me in a deep, bittersweet sorrow that just wouldn't go away. In writing my thoughts down I hope I will soon be able to think of anything else. I almost wouldn't have watched this film. I had heard of it during the Oscars (nomination for Timothée Chalamet: didn't know him, guessed that maybe they just needed a new face for the category – stupid me). The story seemed interesting but also full of gay cliches: the young boy who likes classical music and plays the piano, the older and perfectly handsome guy, even antique statues – too much for me. Oh, how wrong I was. Until two friends of mine (both male and straight) told me that they had watched it together (funny situation, isn't it?) and said it was good. I watched the trailer and became interested, so I ordered the DVD. In the meantime I began reading the book. Until now, I have watched the film twice and begun reading the book for the second time. Long story short: It's been ages that a movie has moved me so much. The story may seem small and simple, and yet it is full of emotions conveyed by an entirely dazzling cast. Above them all, Timothée Chalamets performance is overwhelming and mesmerizing. Interestingly, it's scenes in which he has nothing to speak that touched me the most: The moment at Le Danzing where Elio watches Oliver and Chiara – you can see a ton of thoughts and emotions in his eyes, beginning from the cool-playing guy to the envy that he tries in vain to hide, to the deep sadness because he may never get what he desires here. Then there is the stirring scene when his mother drives him back after Oliver has left and he finally gives vent to his feelings. And of course there is the ending of the movie which I won't describe in detail because I don't want to spoil. Let me just say this: I am deeply grateful that Sufjan Stevens wrote two songs for the film and I love Mystery of love. But Visions of Gideon and Timothées performance made me cry my eyes out. That was truely worth an Oscar. And I haven't even mentioned the countless funny moments that Timothée gave Elio, which prevented the film from becoming cheesy or gaudy. But in the end, it's the whole cast that worked wonderfully together and made the film the gem that it is. It may be a story of two men falling in love but that shouldn't keep straight people from watching it – as the example of my friends proves. If you're gay you may relate a bit more to some details of the relationship (ps. if you are interested in details and want to unterstand the characters and the meaning of the title better, read the book). But it reawakens memories that almost everyone has gathered in his life: the first love, with all its uncertainty, wildness and desire, its beauty – and, sadly, also its sorrow. The film is pervaded by a strong, bittersweet beauty – everyone and everything is beautiful, it's a sunny holiday in the wonderful area of Northern Italy and there is no real danger, no „real problems“ – and yet the whole life as Elio has known it falls apart. „Call me by your name“ made me feel things I had forgotten for a long time and I am still deeply touched. The movie itself is like a wonderful holiday – and afterwards you are thrown into reality again and have to deal with your feelings alone. I like this bittersweet sadness I carry with myself. As Elio's dad said – you should let it happen. I have no idea which movie I could watch next, there is nothing that can keep up with that. I'm afraid that everything else will destroy this feeling. I have mixed feelings about the announcement of the sequel. Of course, I am glad that the whole team got along so well together and when I am honest to myself I have to admit that I need, need, need more of Elio and Oliver. More than strange fan-fiction on Instagram. But when you have read the book (which I higly recommend) you know that more sadness is ahead and, even after years, some wounds may never heal. On the other hand, Luca Guadagnino has mentioned that the sequel may not necessarily adhere to the book. But then again I am not sure what that will mean. Either way, the mood will most likely be completely different from this film. Well, that should not worry us right now. Let's implement the message of the film and enjoy the moment and what we have got, which is: this wonderful film. I haven't watched you for the last time.

An instant classic film. Completely unique and unforgettable love story. So much has been made of it being a gay love story, but it's written, acted and directed so beautifully it's a love story.........period. Anyone can identify with it. Try and get through the last scene without tears falling. Beautiful film. Timothee Chalamet was totally robbed an Oscar as Best Actor but he most definitely is going to win in not to long a time. His "Beautiful Boy" starring with Steve Carrell this Fall could well be the one. Many years of great performances yet to come. He's absolutely incredible in this film.

Ayant vu ce film en streaming, j'étais pressée de l'acheter. Contente, je peux le visionner quand je le veux. Et pour un prix plutôt intéressant. Je recommande.

俳優もシナリオも監督も一流。原作の後半部分を大胆にカットしていますが 映画としては正解。ラストシーンで延々と主人公の表情を 無言で写すのですが、退屈せず、こういう終わり方しかないだろう と思われました。

Bei der Oscarverleihung sorgten die Nominierungen für "Call me by your name" (darunter auch bester Film) für eine Überraschung, denn Luca Guadagninos Film ist alles andere als übliches Oscarfutter und irgendwie weit davon entfernt ein Film fürs amerikanische Mainstreampublikum zu sein. Regisseur Guadagnino, der Sohn einer Algerierin und eines Italieners wuchs einige Jahre in Äthiopien auf, besuchte die Universität La Sapienza in Rom. Bereits 1999 legte er mit "The Protagonists" sein Spielfilmdebüt vor. Es folgte eine 35-minütiger Kurzfilm mit Tilda Swinton. Sie war auch in seinem Film "Io sono l'amore" zu sehen. Dieser Film erhielt sogar eine Golden Globe Nominierung. Es folgte "A bigger Splash" - ein Remake des Alain Delon/Romy Schneider Klassikers "Swimmingpool". "Call me by your name" ist auf den ersten Blick gesehen ein Sommerfilm mit viel Romantik und viel Melancholie, denn zu einer ersten großen Liebe kommt dann am Ende auch noch ein Abschied dazu. Für die Kameraarbeit hat der italienische Filmemacher auf den Thailänder Sayombhu Mukdeeprom gesetzt. Eine sehr gute Wahl, der Cinemathograph hat bislang für Apichatpong Weerasethakul (u.a. auch für "Onkel Boonmee erinnert sich an seine frühere Leben") gearbeitet. Eine starke Komponente liegt auch in der Filmmusik - hier konnte Sufjan Stevens gewonnen werden, der erstmalig für einen Film drei Filmsongs (Mystery of Love, Visions of Gideon", "Futile Devices") beisteuerte. Der Mann weiß, wie man dichte melancholische Lieder schreibt. Die Geschichte spielt in den frühen 80er Jahren, daher kamen auch Songs dieser zeit von F. R. David, Franco Battiato, Lorendana Berte, Bandolero, Giorgio Moroder und Joe Esposito zum Einsatz, als Gegengewicht zum Pop dieser Zeit wurden auch Stücke von Ryuichi Sakamoto, Johann Sebastian Bach und Maurice Ravel eingesetzt. Die Geschichte ist recht alltäglich - der 17jährige Elio (Thimothee Chalamet) lebt bei seinen Eltern im ländlichen Norditalien. Es sind Ferien und es ist Sommer. Sein Vater (Michael Stuhlbarg) ist ein angsehener Professor für Archäologie und er lädt jeden Sommer einen Doktoranden für 6 Wochen dorthin ein, um eine Hilfe bei seinen akademischen Papieren zu haben und um bei Forschungsarbeiten zu helfen. In diesem Sommer ist es der zuerst etwas oberflächlich und etwas arrogant wirkende Amerikaner Oliver (Armie Hammer) aus New England. Der schöne Landsitz liegt irgendwo in der Poebene, nahe der Kleinstadt Crema. Elio ist mehrsprachig aufgewachsen, der Vater ist vermögend und dementsprechend ist die Mutter (Amira Cazar) durch einige Dienstboten entlastet. Der Haushalt wird von Mafalda (Vanda Capriola) geschmissen. Elio ist ein Schöngeist, er liest viel und ist ein talentierter Klavierspieler. Mit der etwa gleichaltrigen Mariza (Esther Garrel) flirtet er ein bisschen und der Neuankömmling sieht gut aus und hat auch gleich einige Verehrerinnen um sich geschart. Vor allem die hübsche Chiara (Victoire Du Bois) scheint sich sehr stark für den attraktiven Ami zu interessieren. In dieser zeit versucht auch Elio Oliver einzuschätzen. Er merkt, dass der ihm alles andere als egal ist, vermutet aber, dass Oliver ihn nicht besonders leiden kann. Gelegentlich schwimmen sie zusammen und machen Spaziergänge oder Radtouren in die Stadt. Er beginnt eine sexuelle Beziehung mit Mariza und prahlt damit vor Oliver, um weitere Reaktionen abzuschätzen. Immer mehr fühlt er sich von Oliver angezogen. Während eines Besuchts auf der Post fasst Elio dann doch seinen Mut zusammen und deutet an, dass er Gefühle empfindet. Obwohl Oliver zögern, kommt es am folgenden Tag zum ersten Kuss... "Call me by your name" ist vor allem ein europäischer Film, die Handschrift des italienischen Regisseurs ist deutlich spürbar. Das Schlußbild am Kamin ist wunderschön und doch gleichzeitig sehr schmerzhaft, denn mit Abschied wird sich jeder Zuschauer identifiieren können, auch mit dem süßen Schmerz der ersten Liebe, die man für immer in Erinnerung behalten wird. Die Affäre eines 17jährigen Jungen mit einem 24jährigen US-Amerikaner basiert auf dem 2007 erschienen Roman von Andre Aciman (Ruf mich bei deinem Namen) wird getragen von hervorragenden Darstellerleistungen. Der 1995 geborene Timothee Chalamet wurde sogar mit einer Oscar-Nominerung als bester Hauptdarsteller geehrt - leider war Gary Oldman als Churchill so sehr Churchill, dass man voraussehen konnte, dass nur er das Rennen machen kann. Schauspiel-Oscars vergibt man gerne an Darsteller, die bekannte und historische Persönlichkeiten darstellen. Ein Hoch aufs Method Acting - oder auch nicht. Jedenfalls finde ich die Leistung von Chalamet genauso preiswürdig. Sie ist halt völlig anders, hat Identifikationscharakter, Tiefe und löst Emotionen aus, während die andere Art der Schauspielkunst wie sie Gary Oldman liefert, den Zuschauer so verblüfft und beeindruckt, weil man es schafft eine bekannte Persönlichkeit zum Leben zu erwecken. Von den vier Oscarnominierungen konnte James Ivory den Preis fürs beste adaptierte Drehbuch gewinnen - damit gelang dem mittlerweile 90jährigen Regisseur von Filmen wie "Zimmer mit Aussicht" oder "Maurice" ein glänzendes Comeback. "Call me by your name" ist sicherlich einer der schönsten Filme dieses Jahres. Dem Regisseur gelang ein super Film, der sowohl feinfühlig, lebendig und auch zerbrechlich wirkt. Damit ist ihm nicht nur ein Klassiker des Jugendfilms gelungen. Weit mehr als Coming of Age oder Coming out - die Hauptthemen dieses Films sind die Sehsucht und die Vergänglichkeit.

劇場で観て心奪われ、その晩に購入しました。 綺麗で切ない映画です。(もっと良い感想をお伝えしたいのですが、私ごときでは力不足) 9月に日本版が発売されるまでリピート再生です。本当に買って良かった。
