A pure delight!

Rating: 9/10 (6 April 2018)

This film is just a pure delight to watch.As a gay man, I felt very attached to and related thoroughly to the character's and their storylines throughout.Some scenes left me with some mild confusion due to a lack of explanation and a lack of subtitles (Wether it's my partial deafness of the beautiful Italian language).The casting chooses are beyond excellent,Timothee Chalamet (Elio) and Arlie Hammer (Oliver) being the standout performances, naturally playing the leads.The storyline unfolds without ever feeling rushed but sometimes dragging on a little at certain points.You just have to go into this film with the right expectations, it's not a gay romance film, it's a beautiful romance film that happens to be gay.As someone who doesn't normally get emotional, especially at films,tv,books,etc, this movie has made me cry at various points, especially as the film reaches its end.Overall, an emotion filled,beautiful masterpiece of cinematography that sometimes faces issues with pacing and slight confusion but continues to an absolute joy to watch!
