THE THGS THAT PEOPLE WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT?ARMIE HAMMER: YOU KNOW, 'S FUNNY—WHEN WE WERE MAKG THE FILM, I NEVER ONCE NSIRED THE RECEPTN OR THE QUTNS PEOPLE WOULD ASK OR ANYTHG LIKE THAT. IT WAS ALWAYS JT THE SGULAR FOC OF DOG A GOOD JOB ON WHAT WE HAD TO DO THAT DAY, YOU KNOW? AND REALLY KG AND ENJOYG THE EXPERIENCE FOR EVERYTHG WAS WORTH. I JT WANTED TO BE SO PRENT. SO NOW, ’S BEEN GREAT, BEE YOU S DOWN WH SOME PEOPLE AND THEY’LL ASK YOU A QUTN ABOUT THE MOVIE AND YOU GO, “OH MY GOD, I NEVER EVEN NSIRED THAT. WOW! WHAT A GREAT, GREAT TAKE!” BUT THEN ALSO YOU S DOWN WH PEOPLE WHO ASK YOU DUMB QUTNS AND YOU’RE LIKE, “OH, YOU REALLY WENT TO THE BASE LEVEL OF . . . O.K., FE, SURE.”THEY’RE LIKE, “WHAT ROBE DO YOU WEAR DURG THE NU SCENE?” OR SOMETHG . . .YEAH, LIKE, “HOW WAS WHEN TIMMY HAD TO GRAB YOUR CROTCH?” I’M LIKE, WE'RE MAKG A MOVIE, WHAT ARE YOU TALKG ABOUT? THE GUYS ARE LOVE. LIKE, SHUT UP.THE MOVIE ISN’T OFFICIALLY OUT YET, BUT DO YOU HAVE A SENSE OF WHAT YOUR “ARMIE HAMMER LIFE TAKEAWAYS” ARE GOG TO BE, WHEN YOU’RE LOOKG BACK AT THE CALL ME BY YOUR NAME ERA 5 OR 10 YEARS DOWN THE LE?I’VE KD OF MENTNED BEFORE THAT WHEN YOU’RE YOUNG AND ACTG CLASS, AND YOU’RE AN IALISTIC ACTOR, AND THEY’RE TELLG YOU ABOUT WHAT MAKG FILM N ACTUALLY BE, THEY TELL YOU ABOUT THE PROJECTS THAT YOU DO THAT CHALLENGE YOU, AND PH YOU, AND FORCE YOU TO GROW, AND CHALLENGE YOUR PERSPECTIVE, AND MAKE YOU GROW AS AN ARTIST AND AS A HUMAN AND BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH . . . AND THEN YOU GET TO THE BS AND YOU REALIZE THAT ’S VERY MUCH LIKE A BS. THIS [MOVIE] WAS PROOF TO ME THAT IF YOU SEEK OUT, YOU N FD THOSE MOVI THAT ARE THE IALISTIC MOVI THEY TALK ABOUT WHEN YOU’RE JT STARTG OUT. THIS WAS THAT EXPERIENCE FOR ME. IT WAS ONE OF THE MOST REWARDG ARTISTIC ENAVORS I’VE EVER UNRTAKEN, AND ’S SET THE BAR REALLY HIGH FOR ME. AND I KNOW THAT ’S UNREALISTIC TO EXPECT THIS EVERY TIME. THAT’S JT NOT POSSIBLE. YOU KNOW, JT LIKE THE PATER KNOWS EVERY TIME HE SS DOWN TO PAT AT THE NVAS, ’S NOT GONNA BE A MASTERPIECE. BUT THIS FILM SHOWED ME THAT ALL OF THAT TALK WHEN YOU’RE YOUNG AND IALISTIC ISN’T JT TALK. YOU N DO THAT.FILMS THAT HAVE GAY CHARACTERS OR GAY ORIENTED THEM, THERE’S OFTEN A TRAGEDY ELEMENT TO THEM.YEAH . . .OFTEN, SOMEONE’S DYG, OR HAS A FATAL ILLNS, OR THEY N’T E OUT. BUT THIS FILM IS MALY JT A ROMANCE BETWEEN THE TWO CHARACTERS. WAS THAT SOMETHG THAT APPEALED TO YOU?I LOVED THAT ABOUT THE STORY. I LOVED THAT THE ONLY ANTAGONIST THIS FILM IS TIME. BEE THEIR TIME WILL END AND THEY KNOW , AND THAT’S . NO ONE GETS SICK; NO ONE GETS BEATEN UP BY REDNECKS. NO ONE GETS REJECTED BY THEIR FAY; NO ONE GETS REJECTED BY THEIR IENDS; NO ONE HAS TO E OUT AND THEN SUFFER THE NSEQUENC. IT’S A BETIFUL STORY OF TWO PEOPLE WHO FALL LOVE AND THAT’S . AND I THK THAT’S WHY A BROAD SPECTM OF PEOPLE REALLY N RELATE TO , BEE EVERYBODY’S FELT FEELGS OF FATUATN FOR SOMEBODY ELSE—LIKE, “OH MY GOD, THEIR LEG JT TOUCHED ME, HOLY SH.” EVERYONE N REGNIZE THAT AND THE FACT THAT WE—[DIRECTOR] LU [GUADAGNO]—PACKAGED A WAY THAT MAK CREDIBLY ACCSIBLE FOR ANYBODY TO SHOW PEOPLE THAT LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE IS LOVE. I THK THAT'S ONE OF THE BETIFUL THGS ABOUT THE FILM THAT LU WAS ABLE TO ACPLISH.THERE IS A KD OF PROJECTN GOG ON WH YOUR CHARACTER—BEFORE TIMOTHéE’S CHARACTER, AND BEFORE WE, ACTUALLY GET TO KNOW HIM, AND WE JT SEE HIM OM AFAR. DID YOU DRAW ON ANYTHG OR ANY SUATN YOUR LIFE FOR THAT?MOST POPULARRILEY KEOUGH ON GROWG UP PRLEY, LOSG LISA MARIE, AND INHERG GRACELANDBY BRT HENNEMUTHBILL MAHER BEEFS WH “PREACHY, MAN-HATG” BARBIE MOVIEBY SAVANNAH WALSHJAMIE LEE CURTIS DIGS HERSELF OUT OF COMMENTS ABOUT SAG-AFTRA STRIKEBY EVE BATEYIT’S VERY MUCH THAT WAY THE BOOK. YOU KNOW, THE BOOK IS WRTEN ENTIRELY OM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE TERLOCUTN OF EL. AND ’S VERY SUBJECTIVE ABOUT HOW HE FEELS ABOUT ANYTHG, GIVEN THE MOMENT. SO IF OLIVER DOWN FOR BREAKFAST THE MORNG AND SS DOWN NEXT TO HIM, AND ASKS HIM HOW HE’S DOG, THEN THE BOOK, HE’S THE GREATT. LIKE, “I LOVE HIM, HE’S A WONRFUL PERSON.” BUT IF HE DOWN FOR BREAKFAST AND DON’T S DOWN, DON’T SAY HELLO TO ANYBODY AND JT WALKS OUT THE DOOR, THEN HE’S AN ASSHOLE: FUCK THAT GUY. THE BOOK, EVEN MORE SO THAN THE FILM, IS OM THE SUBJECTIVE PERSPECTIVE OF EL, AND THE MOVIE IS A LTLE MORE VOYRISTIC WHERE YOU’RE JT THERE WATCHG THIS PLAY OUT ALMOST REAL TIME.WE’RE STG AT THE TABLE WH THEM.EXACTLY. I MEAN, YOU’RE OBVLY STILL FOLLOWG EL, BUT ’S A LTLE B MORE NTRAL. SO THE BOOK ’S A LOT MORE ABOUT THE PROJECTN OF WHAT OLIVER IS AND WHAT HE REPRENTS TO EL, AND THE MOVIE I HAD TO SEPARATE THAT A LTLE B AND FD OUT THE SENCE OF WHO HE REALLY WAS.IS THERE ANYTHG ABOUT TIMOTHéE YOU FEEL LIKE PEOPLE WOULD BE SURPRISED TO FD OUT?HE’S AN EXCELLENT RAPPER. IT’S NOT EVEN A JOKE . . . THERE ARE ALSO VIOS OF HIM RAPPG ONLE. IT’S AMAZG, ’S AMAZG. HE’S GOT LIKE, A MASSIVE STAGE PRENCE, AND HE’S SO FORTABLE. TIMMY IS . . . HE IS AN CREDIBLE HUMAN BEG WH SUCH A RICH AND VIBRANT TERNAL LIFE THAT HE WEARS SO CLOSE TO THE SURFACE. HE IS SO UNGUARD, AND ’S ALMOST LIKE A GIFT TO THE WORLD AROUND HIM. BEE HE ULD VERY EASILY PROTECT HIMSELF MORE, BUT HE DON’T, AND THAT’S WHAT MAK HIM WONRFUL.YOU GUYS HAVE TO RELEASE A SGLE TOGETHER.FOR SURE. I’M , I’M .IS THERE ANY RPONSE THAT STANDS OUT TO YOU OM SOMEONE WHO HAS SEEN THE FILM, SOMETHG THAT PECIALLY STAYED WH YOU?YEAH. ONE PERSON SAW THE FILM AND TWEETED OUT TO I THK TIMMY OR PETER [SPEARS] THE PRODUCER AND SAID, “I WATCHED THE FILM AND THEN I WENT HOME AND ME OUT TO MY PARENTS.” I WAS LIKE, “WHOA, WHOA.” IT’S THAT THG OF, I DON’T WANT TO BE NAIVE ENOUGH TO THK THAT MOVI N CHANGE THE WORLD. BUT CHANGED THAT GUY’S WORLD. IT GAVE HIM SOMETHG THAT HE NEED TO BE O.K. WH WHO HE WAS.ARE YOU SOMEONE WHO READS ALL THE REVIEWS? DO YOU SEE WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYG?THEY’RE HARD TO AVOID, BEE WE’RE DOG THIS WHOLE [PRS TOUR]. BUT I’M NOT GOG OUT OF MY WAY TO REALLY SEEK ‘EM OUT BEE ’S . . . AGA, THAT’S ENTIRELY SUBJECTIVE TO THE REVIEWER AND WHAT THEY THK. EVERYBODY'S ALLOWED TO HAVE THEIR OWN EXPERIENCE WH THE MOVIE AND SOMEONE MIGHT S THROUGH FOR AN HOUR AND 40 MUT AND LIVE THAT FOR AN HOUR AND 40 MUT AND WRE ABOUT THAT BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS I GOT TO LIVE THIS FOR TWO MONTHS, THREE MONTHS, AND REALLY IMMERSE MYSELF THIS AND SEQUTER MYSELF THIS WORLD.
