Director Barry Jenkins Appreciated 'Call Me By Your Name'

Barry Jenkins recently revealed that he has loved this year's notable movie 'Call Me By Your Name'. The director, whose last gay coming-of-age drama Moonlight won an Oscar has given a glowing review of the film, which has been directed by Luca Guadagnino. The film stars Timothee Chalamet and Armie Hammer.

The story follows 17-year- old Elio (Chalamet) to fall in love with a handsome doctoral student played by Hammer, who comes for an internship to his father’s sun- drenched Italian villa during the summer vacation. According to reports, Jenkins wrote, “CALL ME BY YOUR NAME sweetness without a trace of sentimentality; a work made without fear of sentimentality”.

“Sweetness beside sex. Sex that transmutes love. An intellectually rigorous examination that never loses warmth. Earnest, mature and endearing the whole way through”, the director wrote. Jenkins also said that it was refreshing to see a work that assembles curiosity. Moreover, the film has been nominated for best drama film, best actor in a drama (Chalamet), and best supporting actor in a drama (Hammer) at the Golden Globes.
