The scene in the Batlle of Piave monument.
From "Call me by your name" by Luca Guadagnino
I do no to own the rights.
For promotional purposes.
Complete.
This movie has ruined me in the best way possible.
Rebekah Drummond BROO SAME
Rebekah Drummond couldn’t have phrased it better
It promotes perversion
Gandalf4568 one of them looks like he’s 12
Gandalf4568 I’m just saying that would be the only way this dude would say this is that Timothy Charlemet looks like he is a very young teenager
"don't go anywhere, stay right here" "you know i'm not going anywhere" *walks 20 steps*
Chiara Bottini i thought the exact same hahaha
It's only 15 😭
I yodeled
@@Justasmile1000 bro did you guys actually counted it?
@@wdft-qk4ix yeah that's how obsessed I am with this movie
The setting. The lighting. The clothing. The music. The old objects and vehicles. The cinematography. Everything screams the feeling of old memories from a good summer.
Yessss. It also teleports you to those quaint towns you love but know could never be a permanent residence.
I love the way they filmed it
it was filmed beautifully the whole aura of the film felt so sensual
I know , right . That is why it is so natural. Too many beautiful things in this movie.
YES! Absolutely! The slow peace of everything, the boredom, the nature, the sun bathing everything... Summers of a time long ago... that you only get to live once.
Elio flirting is somehow so cute. The way he says "you know what things" and his whole body language is just a special thing.
IKR
yeah, when he did this 2:58 so cute
wow I didn't know I got so many likes on this comment
And his body language when they are standing on the river, in the place where Elio likes to read books...
Except that both actors are straight as an arrow. Maybe they should get white guys to play black characters again. Or men to play all women characters as in Ancient Greece. Why always have straight guys play gay ones?!?
He was robbed of an Oscar.
Yes . . . and once again recently for "Beautiful Boy."
@M martin so was Leo but now see him xD
R Berg we both know he deserved one
It's Leonardo DiCaprio all over again
and a Golden Globe
I love how it's just one shot
yes, everything is beautiful in this scene, the pacing, the rythm, the dialogue, I´ve heard in some interviews the resolution of this scene in one shot, (ones), it was suggested by the actor Armie Hammer. This Mr. Guadagnino such a sensibility it has.
I thought the same!
Armie says it's like a scene from a play!..he was right! If there's a cut from the scene at any moment it wouldn't have the same effect!...I love what Timmy says in the shift of the dynamic of the relation ship!..it was Elio that set the phase in the conversation!..even when Oliver wanted to forget about it!..Elio was still brave to let him know what's really is going between them!... I'm paraphrasing.."it was his choice to wear a seat belt or not!"
Yep I love it too, and so so much...the fact it's just a sigle shot makes us feel the indeniable tension growing more and more between them, in real time...this scene couldn't any more perfect.
It was Armie's suggestion to Luca who had problems structuring the scene.
I’ve just seen the film 16 times in 7 weeks - and I can’t come over it. This is actually my life with my friend Hans (we spent 30 years together) concentrated into 6 weeks in Italy. Met him 1984, he looked like Oliver with his hairy chest, and I was Elio, but just 2 years younger, exactly, we were both born the 21st of July. Had a wonderful life together until Hans passed away the other year - and left me alone in chaos - as Oliver did to young Elio. This is the most perfect film I ever seen, the love between them is amazing - like the 30 years we got - but just a couple of weeks for them… Jan Hermansson, Sweden
you have a beautiful love story Jan Hermansson.
wow !!
Jan Hermansson thats the kind of love i wish i could have !!! i hope my oliver will find his way to me.
All the best, Jan. Thank you for sharing your story
Life imitates Art
At first I didn't understand this scene, I didn't pay close attention to it, now that I'm re-watching I come to the realisation that this scene is a masterpiece (like the movie itself) Elio declaring his love to Oliver without even saying really saying it. This scene is so simple yet so complicated and I think that's what I like about it. God, this movie is amazing.
yes, it´s a beautiful scene, I like the simple dialogue, but in the background of every word there is a powerful message.
Yes the powerful message is that the older man is not being careful with the younger man's heart at all.
@@11Garrett11 That's perhaps a bit harsh. In Oliver's American world, those sorts of feelings must not be even acknowledged, let alone acted upon. In that sense, Elio is much the stronger of the two.
Why exactly did Elio say”If you only knew how little I know about the things that matter” and how did Oliver know that this was Elio confessing his love?
@@bspearslover99 samee here I also need explanation abt that, someone pls help
"If you knew how little i know about the things that matter..."
"What things that matter?" :P
thewaywardpoet "You know what things." 😉
Miguel Cunha one of the best movie lines i ever heard. Plus the monologue of Mr Perlman- " but to make yourself feel nothing, so as not feel anything. What a waste."
why are you telling me this
Miguel Cunha I wanted you to know..
I thought this was one of the most powerful and symbolic scenes of the movies. Notice the techniques Guadagnino uses as Elio and Oliver navigate this conversation. When they first start talking about smoking, multiple cars and mopeds drive by, creating a loud buzz and noise over the scene. This matches the meaninglessness of their conversation about smoking. It is a conversation that ultimately means nothing. It is empty, it holds zero significance. It is simply noise. There are no more vehicles or noise like this until the very end of the scene. For the rest of the scene Elio and Oliver rotate around the statue. They begin far apart as Elio brings up how little he knows. Here, they are distant from one another both physically and in the way they speak. "Because I wanted you to know" Elio half speaks to himself. As they continue to move around the statue, this directly represents the way they move and dance around the point of their conversation. Neither of them actually says what they're feeling or what they are talking about. Deep down they both know, but instead they dance around the point for the whole conversation, just like they dance around the statue. Until finally they meet, "these are things we cant speak about" and the door (of the car) is quite literally shut on the conversation. All of this being done under the watch of the church. They can't fully express themselves due to the ever present judgement and stifling expectations of society. This scene screams volumes. So so incredible and I think it's a perfect example of one of the key themes of the movie: that love should be expressed. It felt like for most of the movie, Elio and Oliver dance around their feelings like they do in this scene. And in this scene it is quite frustrating to watch. I think many viewers watching the screen want to tell the characters to "just say how you actually feel!!" And through that discomfort and frustration, Luca is returning that exact same sentiment back onto you. Share the love you feel you in your life because it's frustrating and confusing when you don't. Don't hold back and never be afraid to be open and honest with those you love.
I also just noticed that Elio says "I'm not going anywhere" as he passes by the bus in the background - the same bus that will take them away from here temporarily, but only Elio will return.
Wow amazing. So that's why he was looking at that church. I was already wondering.
Fuck this scene I was so mesmerised I could not breathe
after multiple rewatches, one thing that stood out to me and which i haven't seen much or any mention of, is the way oliver words his reply "are you saying what i think you're saying?". on the surface it seems like a candid thing to say, but after pondering this conversation, i find it such an obtuse expression because it masks a painfully astute self-awareness and also fear towards whatever it is that elio has brought up. both are holding back from being completely transparent with each other. oliver is phrasing it as his conjecture-- he is wary and does not want to proceed with impulse. he is possibly dissuading himself from even ascertaining that he knows what elio is talking about. but perhaps it's this very peculiarity that makes it the perfect response to elio's equally circuitous confession. this exchange demonstrates their intellectual compatibility, which is one of the main factors of their attraction.
What an amazing comment
"Is it better to speak or to die"
💕😭
IT BROKE ME
To die obviously
ad soyad mood
Speaaaaak
"Because I wanted you to know"
Because I wanted you to know Because I wanted you to know Because I wanted you to know. Because I wanted you to know Because there's noone else I can say this to but you
so cute
@@user-ms1ul1jx8q my favorite scene.
It is in the book as well 😊
Love this scene however I can’t help but laugh when I think of how my dumbass would NOT be able to hear from the distance they were talking I would of been like “WHa- hUh?!?”....”WHaT THingS??!!”
THAT IS SO ME OMGGG
C.T.S Texas 😂 also this couple makes me cry A LOT
LMAOO
🤣
what “thing” we’re they talking about? i’m confused
I love how subtly crafted and sophisticated this film is. No flashy special effects, no over the top villain (rather the antagonist in this story is time), and the romance is not shoved in your face.
You are in the right, no special effects, no top villain, I think the movie is so powerful, because all the time it´s talking about feelings. And is so beautiful. Specially in this times...
I wonder if the real antagonist in the film isn't Oliver's "recognition" -- if you want to call it that -- that he has a real life waiting for him elsewhere in America, one that could never include Elio?
I loved how the authenticity of the scenes is given by the context. Here, after one of the greatest scenes, Oliver goes to take his printed pages. That's precisely what makes it real. That's what makes the scene alive, it goes over its own inherent meaning since that meaning can't exist without context.
Beautifully put
"the antagonist in this story is time" very beautifully said!!
Elio's being reminded/ warned by two things in this scene to not fall for Oliver: - the bus is reminding him of that Oliver has to leave soon and that he shouldn't fall in love with him - the church is telling him that homosexuality is not accepted by society nor by the catholic religion yet he still went for it... but it was worth it :) his heart broke when Oliver left but thanks to him he experienced the best love that he could ever find
What bus?
And that is exactly what i love and hate at the same time. It’s so hurtful to know that there was and there are still people in love but the society doesn’t allow it. For me LOVE is LOVE, and to think people can’t be just together is just... ahhh so shitty
Thought Elio comes from a jewish family?
he's jewish
Can't relate to Elio, I have this HUGE ass crush on this boy in my class. I want to go for it but ALL OF THE PEOPLE HERE IS HOMOPHOBIC AND JUST STRAIGHT UP GON PUNCH YOU IF YOU SAY THAT UR LGBTQ+
You know I'm not going anywhere.
The book actually described this comment as an affirmation of total and eternal devotion Elio felt towards Oliver. What a classic piece of literature
i'm not okay
suzycreamcheesez this is probably one of the most underrated lines of the entire story. this speaks volumes, as future Elio (as far as love goes) never goes anywhere.
I'd said that to a boy I loved 2 years ago. And when I saw Elio said the same thing when I watched the movie for the first time my blood froze
suzycreamcheesez but you are going to somewhere and never come back 😞
I really didn't notice it was one shot until they got back on the bikes, it felt so natural.
Alex alejo i didnt even noticed until you pointed that out, so cool!!
One thing i love about these comments is that, people always share things that others didn't notice. Thanks for pointing that out.
@@achaAoki youre right,I just noticed very little and meaningful details just by reading these comments:)
I know I’m late but wow I just noticed! How did they even memorize all of those lines that’s impressive
nothing: absolutely nothing: my head: ʸᵒᵘ ᵏⁿᵒʷ ʷʰᵃᵗ ᵗʰᶦⁿᵍˢ
This film is a spell, it pulls you in, further and further deep
I agree!
Yesss
Ellio's language skills, personality and intelligence are so alluring...It's no surprise that Oliver was drawn to him..... That's what made the film so good to me. I felt the emotions in the scene...like this one.
It's so true, everything in his face in his body says something to spectators. Amazing Timothee ❤
Yup. It’s decided. I’m rewatching this tonight.
I watched it only last night and watch again right after and 2 more times today.... Don't blame me 😂😂
I'm about to watch it again as well. 😫
i haven’t rewatched in a year. this movie causes me to feel unbearable pain that i often like to steer away from. but i might watch it tonight, this clip just made me feel it all over again.
it's time to do that again right now
@@donniedarko5641 same with me. I felt emptiness and pain after watching this movie that i don't think i can watch it again. Same reation as to film "The pianist" of R. Polański
This scene is incredible. They declared their love without saying "I love you"
That's what I love so much about this film, it's clear that Elio and Oliver are in love but they never said those words to each other, I think that makes it so much more powerful.
Is that what they did? I missed it. I don't get subtle nuance. I read the book and loved it though!
i wanted his backpack SO BAD & when i finally found it, it was $8,000. rip me
why so expensive? it was used by Elio?
Where is it?
haha..'used by Elio'
you can find it if you just type "Call Me By Your Name Elio's Backpack" into google and do a bit of looking around. it was so expensive because it's from a fancy Italian brand... kinda like Gucci to us Americans. BUTTTT I found a cheaper one on Amazon for like 70 bucks :)
BIG NUT but Gucci is italian, and it's also really expensive here in Italy...
"You know I'm not goin' anywhere." This is my favorite part
The book actually described this comment as an affirmation of total and eternal devotion Elio felt towards Oliver. What a classic piece of literature
I agree. This is incredibly sad. How can a young man harbour such intense feelings? Sadly his life after Oliver was virtually meaningless hence he described it as “ being in a coma” while Oliver’s life was described as a “parallel life”. Do you remember the part of the book where Oliver asked “ Do you like me that much, Elio?” And Elio replied.....” I worship you Oliver”. My heart is absolutely shattered to pieces for poor Elio! Wish Oliver never came to his house
where to watch free?
@@estelle3005 true. Pretty much toxic stuff
ye
The way he sways while nodding yes😊
That was too adorable. I found myself grinning during that part. :)
So cute. And look at Oliver's face, seem like he can't handle with his baby's thing. Lovely, both of them.
I know!!! One of my favorite things.
SO grateful for your comment & please excuse my long response. To me this is one of the many precious, striking moments of Chalamet's portrayal because he conveys with such a childlike movement how innocent Elio is; but, also, it’s as though he's about to shake his head to answer "No" to Oliver's question (because he’s terrified of the ramifications)...and then answers “Yes” by nodding. I live in southern Louisiana and have yet to meet one person locally who has seen CMBYN. I only saw it a month ago; it has affected me profoundly and I have no one to talk with about it. P.S. I don’t in any way pretend to be a film critic.
its was very flirty...in a cute way!
The way he said: you know what things... omgg
😆
What did he mean???
@@heatherdoty66 tyyyy
There's a part in the book just a few days after this confession and their first kiss when Elio kept trying to break the silence between them, Oliver asked Elio: "Do you really like me that much, Elio?" to which the champion of love, Elio replied: "Do I like you? Oliver, I worship you." mic drop
Does Oliver like him as much?
This scene is in the directorial cut:(((((
I watched the movie before reading the book so now I’ll go back to read the book to get the whole perspective of it
@@juanacoronaa its sad cuz the book is also in elio's perspective..we dont get to see oliver's perspective at all
who is the top tho? Is it really Elio? Oliver is the bottom?
This is one of the greatest scenes of one of the most memorable films in comtemporary cinema. Subtle and smart. So refreshing from all the blockbuster noise... Pure gold!
kexakalu you said everything ! :)

no..gay...
Excellent! Timothy Chalamet is so perfect in his acting like an awkward teen. Breathtaking face and body language. Just like the old stars like Greta Garbo in silent movies that acted with their eyes and faces. This kid is amazing. I saw him in the lobby of the hotel I work for before he was nominated. He's very playful and real.
yes..gay...

I am 67 and this movie haunts me. The scene at the train station where Elio and Oliver part had my mind rushing back to 1979 in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, when I was in the U.S. Navy. I was 23 and Javier was 18. It was our destiny that we met the innocent way we did. We spent three glorious days together, walking, talking, joking, laughing, eating... I promised to find him the next time my ship was in port. Our last day slowly wound its way through the morning, the afternoon, but finally evening arrived. We made the day last until around midnight when our meandering brought us to the landing at the bay where my ships' liberty boat would take me away from Javier. I wanted to cry so badly but didn't want to draw the attention of my drunken shipmates also waiting for the boat. Then it started to rain lightly, and I realized the gods were crying for us. We finally had to be apart... The next year when my ship went back to the Mediterranean and arrived at Palma, I rushed to the sailor bar where I knew two of Javier's lesbian friends worked. They told me Javier had been drafted into the Spanish navy for his two years mandatory service. I never saw my sweet, sweet Javier again. Javier has been in my mind and heart for 44 years now. I think about him and I have a little cry occasionally. Elio, I understand...
thank you for sharing❤
I had the same experience in the late seventies in my military service in Spain in Zaragoza.i never saw him back and in my late sixties I occasionally cry.in fact that changed my life,big wound.
This made me cry
I’d watch this movie
Timmy's italian was flawless when he said "andiamo l'americano!"
La maggior parte delle volte il suo italiano è asdolutamente perfetto,veramente bravissimo ......grandissima ammirazione per le doti artistiche di questo giovane ragazzo....la sua emotività e la sua empatia credo di nn averla mai trovata in nessun attore. Pensando poi alla sua età l'unica spiegazione è che con certe doti ci si nasce. Fantastico
@@lunadiggorytennant yes, it's true .... Elio still has an excellent Italian pronunciation almost always .... sometimes his Italian has a French cadence and it's still very nice to hear
What does it mean?
@@sumantjaiswal3811 let's go American!
Non è vero. It is not true, he speaks Italian very badly. And "andiamo l'americamo" doesn't even make sense in Italian! Capisco che vi piace il film, ma dai, l'accento e la pronuncia di questi due non si può sentire, fanno sanguinare le orecchie!
How hard to express ones love without using the three magical word.
I'm watching this again for like the 100th time, and only now noticing the beautiful irony of when Oliver says "stay right here" and elio replies rather sadly "you know I'm not going anywhere " and the camera pans so that we see a bus in the background - it's a subtle reminder of how little time they have left together; elio isnt going anywhere, but oliver will; Oliver will move on, but this will never leave Elio. It's what makes this scene so strangely emotional.
Y are we both loving the screen is ruin me the best way possible
The piano in the background just adds that extra emotion I love it
DanBdx68 THANKYOUU
FINALLY 😭 btw, the name of the piece is Ravel - Un Barque Sur L'Ocean
Thank you🙂.. From then till now, I wanted to find this music badly❤️.
O: Why are you telling me this? ... E: Cause I thought you should know. O: Because you thought I should know? E: Because I wanted you to know. ... E: Because there's no one else I can say this to but you. O: Are you saying what I think you're saying?
I am still amazed that Oliver understood what he saying.
Has anybody noticed Oliver's happy little smile just before he sets off on his bike at the end?
Yeeees I've noticed it..!!😍😍so dreamy..❤❤
Omgg he notice what elio said
Omgg he notice what elio said
Elio have to tell him somehow ... back in the early 80's, well, it wasn't that easy to admit the attraction to someone who you might see as an ordinary friend! Oliver also is in denial of what he feels at that moment!
i think now it isn´t so easy,
Oliver had his life set on this on and off relationship he had back in the states but he met Elio and changed his life around. The hard part is what do you do with a summertime romance....and some people pursue it and other like Oliver just move on. Tough times
The genius of James Ivory's script is that it doesn't sound written. It just sounds like two guys talking. Brilliant.
Absolutely agree. The conversation seemed so natural that the significance of the dialogue went over my head.
The dialogue in this scene follows the original scene in the book very closely. In fact many of the lines in the film are lifted directly from the book. Interestingly, some of them have been reworked into scenes that are different from the book, sometimes even spoken by different characters from the book, but the lines are identical, and it works really well both ways. Really interesting adaptation.
"Are you saying what I think you're saying?" Elio swaying nervously and nodding his head shyly has left me all soft and mushy inside 😔 He's so precious 💕
This is what summer was like before cell phones, 500 channels, social media, and other timesucks of today. I miss those great summers where everybody was friends with everybody and parties where everyone was invited.
The use of Ravel's "Une Barque sur l'Océan" makes this scene so dreamy and languid. While I love the entire film, this has to be my favorite part. Sheer brilliance!
It´s interesting how it´s used the music in the movie as stated of mine of Elio´s. This piece represent the fascination of Elio´s about Oliver. It was innecesary to request a film composer, they used pre recorded music and had matched at perfection.
Mariano Sister so true although Stevens wrote two exquisite songs for it. And the other song of his which was included was perfect as well
Thank you for that, I was wondering what the name of the piece was! Very evocative.
LOVE this scene!!! The music gives it a very dream-like quality!!!!
Yes . . . but that music is supposed to represent the ocean, you know? (Still, it does work wonderfully well here.)
Well, yes, given its title (Une Barque Sur L'Ocean). It plays throughout the scene only when the two of them are separated (little Elio, sailing alone on the sea of First Love).....until they leave town and ride into the distance together (now little Elio has a first mate on his voyage). Yeah yeah...corny metaphors...
The only film I have ever watched where I long for more and more. It simply won’t let you go, and I am happy about that. It is beautiful in every way possible.
I sat and sobbed at the end. Then I just sat some more. Elio's dad's speech at the end is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. What an example to the rest of mankind. 😭
After watching this movie I felt extremely empty inside and in pain...seriously... similar story happened to me with the difference that i am straight. It would be better for Elio never say anything to Oliver or even Oliver never coming to this house.
I feel this away too though I recently found there is a sort of sequal though its only in book format its called find me and its a continuation of the story in sorts and its four acts though it takes places with the same characters years later
I think one of my favorite things about this movie is that we never hear them say “I love you”. We see it shown so clearly without words.
Such a very powerful segment that melts my heart anew with each viewing. Elio's coquettish wiggle after "..are you saying what I think you're saying?" is so redolent of teenage behaviour too! Perfection! Such a transformative experience watching this work played out with such enormous delicacy and love of their characters!
Yes, somehow this segment of the film is almost beyond perfect.
Love the wiggle, and the little head tilt he does too....
What did he mean by that
You don't understand why- but at the moment you see Elio watching the top of the temple, *you just know* it's him imploring to whatever god there is for a chance with Oliver. This damn film just sneaks inbetween you, like flu.
Oh my god....this is so beautiful. This might be one of my favorites scenes of any movie, ever.
see also Brokeback and Skam Season 3
Absolutely LOVE both of those. Thanks for the recs though :)
aloha nui loa!!
His sentence "because I wanted you to know" comes back into my head again and again during my days.
I know these feelings. The attraction. The small touches. The little sexual jokes. But can't go further because of fear. Fear of society. Fear of family and the fear of rejection
A moment of character development on Armie's part right at the conclusion of the scene 04:15 to the end. Right after telling Elio "we can't talk about those things" when Elio hops on his bike and begins to ride away, Oliver hesitates for a moment, just staring at nothing, trying to process what just happened and what it means. You can imagine him thinking to himself, "Now what do I do?" He is probably wondering whether he handled Elio's confession well or poorly. Then he snaps out of it when Elio calls, "Hey! Andiamo Americano!" It's a subtle moment, but shows us where Oliver's heart is now. And kudos to Armie for playing it so quietly and subtly.
How he repeats "I wanted you to know" So romantic and tender and raw. Arrrgh this movie is so good ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@Esse who down below says he still doesn't understand this scene. Elio is telling Oliver in a roundabout way that he likes him... saying it without really saying it. This is what their relationship has been like until this point: both of them interested in each other but neither of them openly saying so. Oliver has shown many clues that he likes Elio but Elio's response has been unclear and confusing, even rude sometimes. It finally gets to a point where Oliver is annoyed with Elio: "Just don't play at being the good host." Elio isn't mature enough to realize that his responses have been sending mixed signals to Oliver, but he is learning. Later that same day, he offers, "Truce?" and the two of them shake hands and get back on track. So now when Elio openly says he doesn't know about the things that matter, he is admitting to Oliver that he doesn't know what he is doing or how to show what he really feels. Oliver has been confused about Elio to this point, and asks "Why are you telling me this?" Elio's first response is almost but not quite the truth: "Because I thought you should know." Oliver repeats it back as a question, as if to ask Elio to be clearer about what he means, and at first Elio answers with another question: "Because I wanted you to know?" ("Is this the right answer?") Oliver still doesn't respond, and so Elio says it again but as an affirmative statement: "Because I wanted you to know." And repeats it again, more confidently: "Because I wanted you to know." It took him a few tries but he finally got it right and he is being honest and vulnerable now. In effect Elio is telling Oliver "I might be smart in a lot of other ways, but I don't know how to show you that I like you, and I need you to take the lead and show me how to do it." Oliver is still not sure, and so he asks, "Are you saying what I think you're saying?" Elio answers silently with a nod of his head. He is new to adult and sexual relationships. As a guest in their summer home, this now puts Oliver in a tricky and awkward situation, and he says "We can't talk about those kinds of things, we just can't." In the next few scenes we see how Elio tries to show, even inappropriately at times, that he likes Oliver in a physical, sexual way. Oliver's response is, "You are making this very difficult for me." But Oliver understands now, so he continues to take it slowly and carefully until he finally has to tell Elio to "Grow up. Meet me at midnight." So in this scene at the monument, Oliver has come to realize Elio is naive and inexperienced, and he has to take things carefully and patiently at Elio's pace. This is a turning point in how they will relate to each other through the remainder of their time together. What Elio is not prepared for, and what Oliver cannot teach him, is the pain that awaits at their inevitable separation. Oliver can't help him with that, nor can he prevent it from happening. Elio will have to experience that for himself, and on his own. Fortunately he has understanding parents who will be there for him. As Oliver tells him later on the phone, "You are so lucky..." The beauty of this movie is that the script does not spell this all out in words. It shows us what is happening between these two without saying it out loud, in the same way Oliver and Elio relate to each other. It is up to us, the audience, to figure it out on our own, the same way Oliver and Elio have to figure out their relationship. The movie is not going to explain it for us; it is enough to show us the important moments and it trusts us to put the in-between pieces together.
Perfect analysis. Spot on.
I can't believe people are confused by this scene. He is basically telling Oliver he is a virgin and doesn't know much about sex/love, Oliver is taken a back by what he says, then Helio says I thought you should know, I wanted you to know which is basically saying he has the hots for Oliver and wants him to take his virginity. Oliver than asks for confirmation of it and says that's not something he can talk about.
I think it's about love confession & I don't see the reason why that wouldn't be the scenario.
Victor Asack Elio* (sorry, I had to)
Victor Asack no, it’s not exactly that. He’s talking about his feelings for Oliver. This is heavily based of the book, and in the book they have this very dialogue, and we can clearly see his thougts while he’s saying this. He was desperate for a ling time and wanted to tell him about his feelings, but he had been with quite a lot of girls before him and had had sex. Not with guys, of course, but it’s definitely about his feelings, not only about sex.
I am so pissed that I dont see this
YearOfVegan He's not a virgin. He has had sex with girls. But he's never had sex with a male so technically he is a virgin.
"Because there's no one else I can say this to but you." This makes so much sense after reading the book. I remember just trying to understand everything Elio thought when there was silence in the movie, but now that I've read the book, every little silence in the movie makes sense. It's full of thoughts, of repressed emotions. It has a flavor of its own.
The best and smartest confession ever. How magical it is. Now, this movie is a spell
The moment you remind yourself whenever a character says 'I know nothing' that a love scene is coming
"You know I'm not going anywhere ..." oh god ♥️
The book actually described this comment as an affirmation of total and eternal devotion Elio felt towards Oliver. What a classic piece of literature
I love that everytime i randomly feel the need to search up this movie again i find new people love it as well. Once you enter the CMBYN portal there’s no getting out ever
3 years later & im back again
U still feel the same after armies accusations? I’m asking of genuine curiosity?
@@alexcarlson4344 no, tell me what what happened! (Genuinely asking about the accusations)
This movie makes me feel so young, full of hope, and filled with the promise of what young love, ANY love, brings. Just so pure before it EVER got complicated! What a wonderful time!
The most elaborate and subtle way to say I love you, I want you, please be mine...
I could watch this movie everyday and I won't even complain
The best piece of Armie's work. I could not like him more in any other movie. This was his master piece.
The Portuguese have a word that isn’t translatable in English called Saudede, it’s a bittersweet feeling of nostalgia but even those words don’t explain it. This film took me right back to my youth, it’s the most beautiful film I’ve watched in over a decade, the residual feelings from the film float around with me for days afterwards. Simply stunning. This scene is life! So intelligent and real, so beautiful and poetic, full of nuances it’s amazing and takes me back to those delicate awkward feelings of first love
One thing important to notice about this scene is that they’re talking on opposite sides of this event/memorial site of an intense war. They’re on opposite sides of a war; a war of love. Wondering whether to keep fighting their urges or surrender to each other. And they keep walking and walking around this war until they finally come together.
I love how ethereal the music is in this scene
Ravel providing
Fun fact: I didn’t know what things , I was so confused lol
I was like you know pretty sure at first but now i am reconsidering it
Elio's confessing his feelings for Oliver but he can't outright say it because homosexuality was not a thing back in 1983
I don't understand it !! help !!
It's love i guess
@@jadem7301 normalised thing* it definitely existed lmaoo it isn’t a social construct
One of the best 3 minutes on a cinema screen ever subtle but says everything you need to know
This movie made me so completely empty inside at the end and sad at some point that i don't want to watch it again because i don't want to feel that way. In the past i had similar situation but i am straight so i just don't want to go back to it....the sadness and emptiness is killing me after watching this movie
This literally my favourite scene. I still can’t get over this movie 😞
I will never get tired of this movie watched it a lot of times already
The whole atmosphere of this scene is just mesmerizing! While Elio leaves you can see Olivers internal struggle just before he jumps on his bike. And the beautiful music every time they are apart, so beautifully done! Can’t get enough of this movie, dammit.......
"I thought you should know... " Indeed, he should have won the Oscar. He played coming of age - and coming to terms with being gay - so beautifully. What a wonderful performance.
I love how the music just floats in and out of this scene. One of my favourites in this movie. Elio is such a sweet boy. He reminds me alot of myself when I was that age. If I was Oliver, I would take him in my arms and hug him forever.
This scene, is just so….ridiculously effortlessly perfect
For me, the saddest part in this movie is at the end when Oliver calls to say he's getting married and Elio says "you never said anything". You can hear the disappointment in his voice because he thought he knew Oliver and there weren't any secrets between them.
no. He didn't think he knew Oliver at all. Eliot is not dense. He even guessed that Oliver was getting married.
And when Oliver said it was an on and off thing that's been going onbfor 3 years. My heart broke for Elio.
I love everything about this scene. Under the seemingly casual calm conversation, emotions run like waves of the ocean.
Ur pfp
I love how poetic this scene was to take place in this monument depicting a battle. Love is a battlefield. And how Elio peeked at at the church afterwards.
Back when smoking was considered fashionable and harmless
Assuming what was required on cigarette packages and in advertisements in the early 80's, people knew what risks there were.
Italians are always smoking. Not all but lots of them and most are young teens doing it
@you're arrested for first-degree clownery luv true. I live in Germany and SO many people smoke, it's unbelievable.
@you're arrested for first-degree clownery luv in the late 80s Americans decided that smoking was unhealthy (it is), evil and immoral. Since then it has really decreased in popularity. It's generally considered to be unacceptable. Source: I'm American, but I live in Germany 🙂
I love the use of music in this scene; it is faint and doesn't overwhelm the conversation. Too many movies use music as a crutch, or to generate emotion, but CMBYN understands that it is the characters and the dialogue that grabs us.
You only hear the music when they are separated!
This one of the best movies ever made. Each and every actor's performance is just out of the world. The little things between elio and Oliver. I even read the book and the movie is a perfect visualisation of Andrew Aciman's call me by my name. Whose waiting for the sequel find me? I AM ❤️
The sequel has been canned, alas.
To me, the beauty of this movie lies in the fact that I didn't understand it at all when I first watched it. I could not wrap my head around why, everyone else loved it so much. Now, being a little older and actually in love everything about this movie comes to me very clearly. Sometimes you just need to change your perspective...
No other film has affected me as much as this film did. 😢 It makes you want to be part of the world they’re living in. I love Elio’s character so much. Tbh, I would love to see a continuation of their love story. I would love to see an older and more mature Timothée play Elio again.
That scene hurt my heart. Poor elio, who decides to confess his feelings, is not very sympathetic to oliver.
Betty Boop what do you mean? There’s nothing wrong anout expressing your feelings to someone you like?
ive always think of oliver before and during that scene that his straight.. base on acting but then knowing that he was supposedly forcing himself to be mature as the older person, i realized how good his acting is
words can’t describe how much i love this movie. it’s beautiful and amazing in so many ways
I remember watching this scene and wondering if all of this happened in one take, and I watched it again and found out that it was. The camera movement is so smooth and natural, I love it.
I love this scene because I am also enfatuated by my flatmate. We both live in South Europe now and we both are not from here. The Italian sounds, the environment feel similar. We are both constantly hitting on each other in this subtle ways and we both know we can not do much about it for obvious reasons. The thrill that Oliver is feeling is very identical with mine, we are playing with fire and it is exciting, we feel like it is just a holiday in an exotic place and we both feel foreign to it, the only thing that feels like home is our company. Amazing movie describing a puerile love that was doom to end inevitably. 5 starts for this movie.
I’m convinced that I am not meant for love and will die alone, but this movie brings me comfort
Hey how are you
Well, many people think so, it usually makes the special encounter less expected..
For all of us who’ve been terrified to say yes to love, because we were afraid.... This is the movie for you. As a reminder.
really in love with the soundtrack of this movie. the ravel in the background just makes this even more enchanting
I think I get obsessed with this movie, I watched for the first time in 2018 and still i can't get it out of my mind. I love everything in this film, music, photography, and the chemistry between Armie and Timothee is amazing.
this scene was written by a genius. i mean, the way they both try to tell eachother their feeling but without saying anything 🤍
There’s so many little nuances in this scene. It’s truly masterful. There’s things I didn’t notice the first time I saw it, the delivery and body language of both actors is perfection.
Just watched this movie today for the first time ever and I feel like watching it 20 trillion more times
It was just put on Netflix this month and I watched it for the 1st time on Timothée's birthday, without even knowing it... I couldn't watch it before because I did not have the opportunity. Plus when it was released, cinemas near me didn't have it (I live in a very bigoted area). To say that my soul is amazed and thunderstruck in the deep core is an understatement.
What a beautifully choreographed scene. I love the quiet, the slow pace, the shifts of emotion and the way the music weaves in and out. You can feel the heat inside and outside.
You say it as it is.
The power of this scene lies in the fact that we are ALL so captivated by the exchanges between Elio and Oliver that we don't notice the distance between them would actually have required both of them to RAISE THEIR VOICES instead of speaking so gently
I freakin love when oliver is out the song starts and when he is in the song stops. It's like I see elio's dream
They were trying to dance around on what's going on between them!so they talk about the monument's history ! cigarettes and Oliver's manuscript!..until they can't anymore!...elio's bravery in that moment! Thank God he did!.. because as confident as Oliver might look!..he is exactly the opposite of that!...
It's true, even if it does not seem like it, Oliver is in love with Elio. Just enough to see the last night they spend together, Oliver's expression, you can even see the tears and at that moment so concentrated, the sound of the locomotive (which anticipates what will come later), forces him to look back.
Mariano Sister I love that moment !when Oliver was just looking at Elio!..he seem distraught!..unsure! He loves him for sure! but!.. the future is uncertain!...the epmphaty he felt for Elio in that instant!..it's what Timmy says!...it's his favorite scene for armie!because it's a thousand different emotion played in that one moment!my second favorite scene for armie was that look he gave in the train station!..Micheal said one word to describe it.."doubt!"it says it all!😢😭
+Tes Truelove 😊
Yes, the scene is the literal embodiment of the dialogue. And then when they directly meet face-to-face, it's out in the open more clearly.
Tes Truelove Really great observation.
Can everyone please realise that this is one single shot, no cuts, nothing. Those are about 5 minutes and that’s not at all typical for movies. Amazing acting and amazing directing! Also, I come here so often and I want to watch the movie again now but I also don’t want to cry?? Somebody help me ugh
I love how the music starts playing Everytime Oliver leaves or when they're apart in this scene
