Call Me By Your Name: A Summer In Italy
Listen now
Description
Call Me By Your Name, the 2017 Oscar-winning sweetheart, is directed by Luca Guadagnino and is an adaption of the novel by the same title, written by Andre Aciman. This love story follows Elio, a seventeen year-old student played by Timothée Chalamet and Oliver, an older man hired as his father's assistant, played by Army Hammer in 1980's Northern Italy. More specifically, Luca decided to set the film in Crema, an area he's personally connected to. Joan explores why this film's location has so much to do with its ability to charm the viewer and, in Joan's case, fill him with a non-existing nostalgia and how that's integral to the movie's success with special guest Jack Sommer (co-founder of Cesspool)! As always, no spoilers!
