I have to st Oliver to play Oliver bee the inti of gay men are as multiple as the flowers the realm of earth. So there is not a gay inty.
The director of ‘Call Me By Your Name’ has explaed not stg gay actors the film.
Actors Armie Hammer and Timothee Chalamet were st the film over any out gay talent. Guadagno also answered qutns about why there are no explic gay sex scen the film. Unlike “Moonlight” director Barry Jenks, Lu Guadagno is an out gay man, but that didn’t change the way he approached Oliver and El’s sex scene.
‘CALL ME BY YOUR NAME’ DIRECTOR DEFENDS CASTG STRAIGHT ACTORS GAY ROL
In the year that “Moonlight” won the Amy Award for Bt Picture, movi wh gay characters have never been more accepted.
Gay sex those movi, however, is still a b of a third rail. Guadagno was prepared for backlash about the lack of gay sex the film.
“Call Me by Your Name” is a betiful film and a joy to watch, gay sex or not.
'CALL ME BY YOUR NAME' IS THE STRAIGHTT GAY MOVIE EVER
André Aciman’s Call Me by Your Name has twice been hailed as a morn gay classic: 2007, when the novel, about an unlikely summer romance between two young men Italy, h bookstor, and this month, as the languoro film adaptatn hs theaters.
Still, the fact remas that gay men adore this story about two young scholars, El (Timothée Chalamet) and Oliver (Armie Hammer), who embrace unr the roof of El’s tellectual-bohemian fay for a handful of weeks. Why has Call Me by Your Name attaed such an inic “gay” stat when is anythg but? When s ma characters seem almost aggrsively isolated om gay culture or polics?
