"When I think back on it, I don't think about the cameras or the tapes; it all bleeds into one another. It felt like we forgot we were shooting a movie." Timothée Chalamet | Call Me By Your Name (2017), actor "So he [Timothée] finished his piano lesson, and then the two of us jumped on bicycles. He'd been in Crema for weeks at this point. So we got on the bicycles and he showed me around the whole town. And we rode and we went to different restaurants, different gelatrias, like, all the stuff. And it was incredibly analogous to what happened in the movie. I was the new guy in town, and he showed me around. And I fell in love with just, like, you know...Timmy. I mean, it was amazing. It was an amazing experience..." Armie Hammer | Call Me By Your Name (2017), actor "It is not only making a story about the characters that he's depicting, but...also making a sort of documentary on the actors who are playing their characters. I tried to do that as well. But not in an obstructive or sneaky way. I am very open. But I am not gonna be happy and I am not gonna give up until I see a complete surrender from the performers to the camera in order for the camera to be able to make both the storytelling and the X-ray of who they are... So when we got that, we got these great performances and got this invisible force that is the intimacy between Timothée-uh, uh, Elio and Oliver." Luca Guadagnino | Call Me By Your Name (2017), director #1 - charmie | March 10, 2022

[MileApo, from the beginning to the present | BOOK ONE] Apo licks the rim of the glass and tips it to Mile's lips. Mile drinks, never taking his eyes off Apo. Apo takes a sip from the glass next. Mile is transfixed by the seductive bob of his Adam's apple, and his sensual neck. It's suddenly hard to breath. There's no air in the room. They stare at each other. You're so pretty it hurts to breathe, Mile thinks. He is realizing he may never have the courage to say it out loud. If Mile tells Apo how he feels, will Apo still feel safe and comfortable getting naked around him? Will it jeopardize their work? If their relationship is sabotaged, so too are their careers. It would be selfish of Mile to risk it all for his personal happiness. They should remain friends. It's the all-round best option. "Let's rehearse the pool scene." Mile says, completely incongruous with what he just determined. Mile sometimes says stupid things when he's nervous. #3 - mxm | May 12, 2023 #9 - boyxboy | May 12, 2023 #9 - bxb | May 13, 2023 #5 - kinnporsche | May 25, 2023
