Call Me by Your Name is a drama about a 17 year old living in his parents' house during the summer in northern Italy, and the relationship he develops with the man staying in their guest room.
Given all the awards, nominations, and praise thrown towards this film, I decided to go to a screening the week after the BAFTAs. I understand why it's getting all the love it's getting, but, personally, there are other types of films I just enjoy more.
I can't deny all the positive aspects of the film that have already been pointed out by many before me. I also can't deny that I enjoyed the film and I don't regret watching it. What I can't say is that I plan on buying the blu-ray any time soon. It is a good film, but romances in general are films I don't tend to watch in my spare time; unless it's a genre crossover like Groundhog Day or Warm Bodies.
In short: I get it.
