Perfect in every respect

Rating: 10/10 (24 January 2018)

What can I say? This movie has it all. Great performances by great actors; a great adaptation of the book; superb photography; and beautiful scenery.
The scenes between Elio and Oliver are fully realized, and during the first two thirds of the film, you can feel the emotions and sexual tension building. Armie Hammer is probably one of the most under-rated actors working today, yet every role he takes on is well done and then some. Timothee Chalamet is extremely good for his young age, and does emotions quite well.
The movie pretty much follows the book, and succeeds on so many levels.
It hasn't yet come to our local multiplex, so my partner and I drove to another city to see it. We spent the two hour drive home discussing the film and what we liked about it.
Highly recommended.
