The film, directed by Luca Guadagnino, has received four Oscar nominations. Carlo Antonelli, cultural anthropologist on the film, tells us about it.

I just noticed (on my x?th viewing) that Luca’s friend Carlo Antonelli is credited as “Cultural Anthropologist” in the end credits of Call Me By Your Name, so I did a little digging and found this interview from last year. There’s a cute story of them sneaking a peak at the villa, and this interesting bit on creating the 80s vibe and Timmy’s Elio:

In this cultural setting, the work on the main character, Elio, was key.

Luca and I worked on the development of the character of Elio. There had to be elements of international middle-class culture in his character, and he had to be very aware of the zeitgeist. So he has a Mapplethorpe poster for an exhibition that only finished a few months earlier. There are catalogues from Venice Biennales, he’s got a Talking Heads t-shirt of course, and there’s the Psychedelic Furs track that was chosen as the final piece of the puzzle. We wanted a new wave sound, but not something that’s been done to death on 80s Spotify lists.

It’s through the definition of his style that Elio liberates himself. Out of this comes a social and cultural defence of different types of family. Elio’s family allows him to come out. But Oliver, the other character, is to return to America, where he’ll get married (perhaps hiding his homosexuality for ever).

Timothée (Chalamet), the actor, contributed too. He put so much into it, more than we were hoping for. In the dancing scene he represents a bridge with the contemporary world. He’s new, but the 80s were our days. His clothes were all authentic vintage. There was nothing from later than 1983 – it’s all real vintage. But the way he wore them is vintage “now”. So this oscillation was something he contributed. Again from the cultural point of view, we worked on the sense of a holiday in the countryside, on the type of things you’d do for fun, on the boredom, and most of all on the lack of a telephone, which rings only once – at the end. The lack of a telephone is like the Latin word otium, which means “leisure” but is literally the space around things. Inside this space, which doesn’t exist anymore, the fascination of boredom can arise.

This made me feel really sad. Those beautiful, innocent times…

Nostalgia is a bitch…

I hadn’t seen this before, it’s fascinating- especially that bit about Timo as a bridge between now and then. Thank you for finding it @laurenluxe

That a cultural anthropologist was credited, on such a tight budget film, was one of the things that stuck out to me when watching CMBYN in the cinema. I think it shows, as I understood it they got so much of the small details right about Northern Italy in the 1980s.

A lot of things were not that great in the 1980s, and there’s plenty of places today where people don’t live in their phones though, so I don’t necessarily think those were beautiful, innocent times. Just different times.

I still stand by my claim that it is THE SWEATER.

It has to be! Look at it!

That sweater is totally Armie’s. The striped sweater is suspect too.

I guess we all agree on this. THIS just can’t be another sweater.

It has to me. I mean it’s fun to point out the similarities in the other clothing, but it’s pretty obvious none of those are the same because hello massive size difference lol. But that sweater? It’s huuuuuge on Timmy, like two sizes too big, but it’s perfectly fitted on Armie. Basically Armie will never fit into Timmys clothes and anything Armie, Timmy will swim in. That sweater fits the bill.

I need a better pic of that striped sweater too because it looks the same as well but I can’t tell if it’s super baggy on Tim or not. If it is then it’s prolly another one 👀

Timmy was going to Cannes to discuss with DV trying to land his Dune role so he needed his bf’s sweater for good luck. That’s my theory and I will stick to it.
