Call Me by Your Name is a vividly captured tale of first love between two young men. Starring Armie Hammer and Timothée Chalamet, it has strong sexual content. While nudity is brief and fleeting (a woman's breasts, a man's buttocks) and the sex scenes aren't graphically explicit, there are multiple scenes of lovemaking, both between a teen girl and boy and between a teen boy and a man in his 20s. Oral sex is implied, and there's a scene in which a man ejaculates into a fruit, and the fruit is handled after. Teens smoke frequently, and both teens and young adults drink, at least once to excess.
The film is directed by Luca Guadagnino, He is a director and producer, known for Call Me by Your Name (2017), Io sono l'amore (2009) and A Bigger Splash (2015).
