"Call Me By Your Name" (movie critique)




Another movie that has been nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, is "Call Me By Your Name".  A Dear Friend and The Travelling Toe went to an afternoon showing of this movie.  Must admit there were a couple of times we were tempted to leave but we persevered so we could see how this unusual movie ended. Was it worth our time to stay?  Well Dear Readers you will just have to find that out for yourself!

A synopsis of the story line from the internet is as follows:

It's the summer of 1983, and precocious 17-year-old Elio Perlman is spending the days with his family at their 17th-century villa in Lombardy, Italy. He soon meets Oliver, a handsome doctoral student who's working as an intern for Elio's father. Amid the sun-drenched splendor of their surroundings, Elio and Oliver discover the heady beauty of awakening desire over the course of a summer that will alter their lives forever.


CAST:


Timothee Chalamet
Elio Perlman

Armie Hammer
Oliver


The Travelling Toe awards this movie 1 second toe up with a peach...and if you see the movie then you will know why!
