As I said yesterday I'm not technically "here" today since I have NYFF screenings all day. But I did want to mark one of the most important holidays of the year -- the anniversary of me seeing Luca Guadagnino's film Call Me By Your Name for the first time. I saw it at NYFF this day in 2017. That sort of set off a chain reaction for several months where I wrote a whole lot about it -- click here for a post where I collected links to most of those writings. Have you watched CMBYN lately? Do you feel the same or differently about the movie now? (The whole "Armie Hammer situation" has been a difficult one to navigate, that's for certain.) Tell me something! And everybody go fuck a peach today in this movie's honor.

I fell in love with this movie as soon as I watched it. And if I wasn't in the middle of my October horror movie marathon, I'd bust it out for a rewatch.
Armie Hammer deserves all the shame he's getting. No excuse. CMBYN is a good movie nonetheless.
I saw Call Me By Your Name in a movie theater four times. The last time I saw a movie that many times in a movie theater was Schindler's List (five times, 1993 - 1994). It's still one of my favorites.
Now Timmy is dating a Kardashian. At least he and Armie have this film as a shining reminder of them at peak perfection.
