I don’t often remember many of the movies I’ve watched. However, Call Me By Your Name is perhaps one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. Every summer, I listen to the soundtrack and I’m taken back to “Somewhere in Northern Italy”. This isn’t just a movie, at least not for me. The cinematography is perhaps the best there’s ever been, and the soundtrack? Even better, if that’s even possible. Timothée Chalamet gives an astounding performance and Michael Stuhlbarg alongside Amira Casar are equally as encapsulating. An absolute must watch if you love romanticising life. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/26/25 Full Review Júlia L For me, this film transcends mere storytelling and becomes a sensory experience, a journey that unfolds like a deep and immersive emotion. It moves toward an almost absolute totality, yet paradoxically carries the mark of incompleteness—a constant whisper of "what if things had been different?" And yet, there is an uncontrollable desire to remain within it, to feel every scene as if it were part of one's own existence. It is a film that could inhabit me indefinitely, for it resonates with echoes of real life, of youth, and of the ephemeral. Its beginning is like a soft prelude, bathed in the golden light of nostalgia; its middle, a whirlwind of feelings and emotions that envelop and intoxicate like an aged wine; and its end, a melancholy that settles in uninvited, like an inevitable autumn after an unforgettable summer. The relationship between Elio and Oliver is at once youthful and tender, simple yet intricately complex, like a poem whose true meaning hides between the lines. The love that binds them is a delicate thread, swaying between the tangible and the ethereal, between desire and farewell—a love that, despite its fleeting nature, is inscribed in the eternity of feeling. Elio's parents are figures of serenity and warmth, guardians of a home that is not merely a physical space but a refuge for the soul. In them, there is a rare tenderness, an understanding that transcends words and manifests in subtle gestures. And I find myself wishing, one day, to be like them. At the same time, there is within me a longing to be Elio, to have been shaped by such a loving presence, by a freedom that does not suffocate but embraces. The ending is understandable, and yet cruel in its inevitability. For Elio, it is a silent blow, a weight difficult to bear, a scar that time may never fully erase. When Oliver, almost absentmindedly, announces that he will marry in the fall, all that remains is the memory of the summer that belonged only to them. The summer that was home, that was a promise, that was infinite—and yet now dissolves like a mirage, leaving only a lingering warmth in the face of the approaching cold. And so, there is nothing left but to remain there, immersed in the gentle pain of memory, slowly trying to learn how to breathe again. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/24/25 Full Review Ari J This film is stunning in every aspect. In the final scene, Elio gazes into the flickering flames of the fireplace, tears streaming down his cheeks. It captures a moment that is both profoundly raw and beautifully poignant. That scene will forever resonate with me. Thank you, Luca Guadagnino for crafting such an immersive and heart-wrenching experience.
