Teenage angst

Rating: 8/10 (20 October 2018)

Call me by your name. Northern Italy, 1983. A half American half Italian family go for their six week summer holiday to see their folks by Lake Garda. They are joined by a 24 year old handsome Anerican student on a sabbatical. The 17 year old boy, an intelligent bookworm but emotionally immature develops strong feelings for said student. A simple but lovely film about teenage angst and love set against the backdrop of stunning scenery. My wife and I were both moved by it and both gave it 8 out of ten. Highly recommended.
