Call me by your name
Last week I watched another movie that was nominated for the Oscars. I already watched "Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri", and I liked it a lot. It was captivating and emotional.
In regards to "Call me by your name", I didn't have high expectations when I decided to watch it. Actually, I thought it was going to be another boring story, but it wasn't. I was really surprised when I finished watching the movie. It was one of the most romantic movies I've ever watched. I have some favorite romantic movies, like: "As good as it gets", "Atonement", "The theory of everything", etc. And now I add this one.
The story is about a boy who falls in love with a 24-year-old man. I found really interesting that the movie doesn't focus on labeling their romance as a gay relationship or on their coming out. They only show a love story in a beautiful and simple way.
What I liked most of the story was the subtle way they fell in love. It's all a process where they get along with each other and discover feelings that they never felt before.
I really liked the story. For that reason, I decided to read the book the movie is based on. And I almost finish it. I don't regret it. The book is also beautiful, it has more details and you can feel the main character's emotions and frustration. It's something really different. I really recommend the movie and the book too (even though I haven't finished it yet).

Thanks for the corrections, Scott. With regards to the movie, yes, I think there are deeper themes. I don't want to give you spoilers, but there is a part when Elio speaks with his father. His speech makes you think about love, loss, and life in general. Their romance doesn't affect others. And about the last question, the story was adapted in the 80's, which it's very curious because the author has said he didn't want to focus on situations that could problematic in a relationship between men at the time (AIDS and social rules).
(I don't know if I wrote it right)
