Call me by your name
...And I'll call you by mine.
The words linger longer in your ears than the music ever will, the whole world will come to a quick pause the 130 minutes you sit down for the experience that Luca Guadagnino has created from the masterpiece AndrÃ¨ Aciman produced in pages, Call me by your name.
The story takes place "somewhere in Northern Italy". A coming-of-age tale of a 17 year old boy, Elio Perlman (TimothÃ©e Chalamet), who never knew what love was until his father's annual summer intern, Oliver (Armie Hammer) visits them in the summer of 1983. The initial part of the story is about Elio spending his summer with the locals and flirting with Marzia, his friend, feeling nothing but the impulse of a teenage boy until Oliver starts dancing to the same tune as Marzia. Elio's heart finally beats in rhythms, he feels alive, just like every person who watches this masterpiece would feel!
Unravelling the Mystery of love!
The love Elio and Oliver feels crawls into us in a way unclear to the mind, that we never get enough of the love they feel. The music by Sufjan Stevens (Mystery of Love, Visions of Gideon, Futile devices) in the movie also creates an ambiguity in the viewers that we will find ourselves craving for more of their love, each and every time we contemplate.
Another factor that attracts us to this spectacular adaptation is the connection Elio has to his father and mother, especially his father. To the end of the movie we come across a monologue by Mr.Perlman (Michael Stuhlbarg) which will stay in our hearts forever knowingly or unknowingly, one which we will keep speculating, wondering why.
In this era where 'Pride' is all about being proud about ones sexuality, desires and personality, this movie is a diamond shining in the dark of a homophobic society set in the earliest of times as a proof to the fact that being gay or not living according to the traditional gender norms is not a "condition to be treated" or simply a "choice".
The walls in our hearts begin to fall apart when the walls separating Elio and Oliver start melting into the ocean of their love, unravelling the mystery of their love.
