A Masterpiece

Rating: 8/10 (25 January 2018)

It's not the typical indulgent LGBT film. There are teases, moments of awkwardness, and curve balls in the storyline. The interaction and relationships are drawn out, egging on the viewer. Rather than excitement, it's enticing and unpredictable, daring the viewer to watch and see how things unfold. If you are gay, you understand the hesitation and frustration; the fluidity and hiding; the release and freedom. If you are straight, it gives you a glimpse of the those feelings. Impressive philosophy, maturity, cunning, and understanding was shown by the parents. The ending wasn't rushed, nor overdrawn. Every moment had a purpose. Call Me By Your Name is a work of art.
