Call Me by Your Name gets a gor­geous trailer

01 Aug 2017

Armie Ham­mer and Tim­o­th­ée Cha­la­met star in Luca Guadagnino’s sun-kissed coming-of-ager.

It’s here – the trail­er to one of the best films we’ve seen in 2017. In fact, if there’s a bet­ter film to come out before the year’s end, then this will tru­ly have been a vin­tage crop. Direc­tor Luca Guadagni­no fol­lows up A Big­ger Splash with some­thing a lit­tle dif­fer­ent, a supreme­ly atmos­pher­ic and emo­tion­al love sto­ry set in north­ern Italy dur­ing the ear­ly 80s.

It stars Armie Ham­mer as a philosophy/​linguistics aca­d­e­m­ic who takes a sum­mer intern­ship with a pro­fes­sor (Michael Stuhlbarg) and ends up form­ing a fast friend­ship with Elio, the professor’s son. With an extra­or­di­nary script by James Ivory, adapt­ed from André Aciman’s 2007 nov­el and incred­i­ble deploy­ment of Suf­jan Stevens’ music on the sound­track, you should real­ly believe the hype, and then some.

Call Me by Your Name is released in UK cin­e­mas on 27 October.
