Why choose this story? I don't think this is a homosexuality film. This is a complicated story that involves the depressed emotions of each of us as we grow up, and we often ignore it. Those depressive longing and fears of passions,One by one in this story. It looks like a look back in my youth. and because of this look back, we realized how much we missed. When I watched this movie,I was attracted by the slow pace of this story and the slow pace of the Italian town in the 80s. especially the open attitude of Elio parents to their children's active guidance in education. fruit trees in the backyard of Elio's parents' home,every summer everyone can drink fresh peach juice and then discuss academic together.reading books by the pool, jump into the pool when tired, fresh fruits can be picked at any time, who sleep under the fruit tree waiting for inspiration.
The story uses two actors' dialogue and simple body language to explain the real emotional changes in the hero's heart.however, most of the time, our lives are not as fanatical as drama, and it is difficult for us to truly express our feelings.Just like elio doesn't know how to deal with a relationship with Oliver.fortunately,Elio has an open-minded parent. Elio can be the most true self,and most impressed is Elio's father told him at the end of the story“How you live your life is your business. Just remember: our hearts and our bodies are given to us only ones. Before you know it, your heart‘s worn out,as your body there comes a point when no one looks at it, much less wants to come near it.”made me though about the meaning of life.
That is why I chose this story.

  1. I remember this beautiful film released, but I haven’t seen it. I’m interested in it after reading your response.
    Can you explain the title “Call me by your name”?
    In what situation, who said it to whom?

  2. What I just discovered is that Call Me by Your Name in on NetFlix now. I hadn't heard of it before, but as with Junko, Lily's summary and response to the story interested me, but it sounds a bit serious, so I won't watch it this week. I've just watched the latest season of The Crown, which was serious in its treatment of historical figures and events, including a bit of the love life of the dysfunctionally normal British royal family, so now I'm watching something that's a bit lighter: I had a quick preview of Call Me by Your Name, and it does not look light.
