I love coming-of-age films and this one is **by far** my favorite because there's no tragedy, there's no ugliness, there's only beauty; the beauty of love, the beauty of getting to know yourself, the beauty of loss, the beauty of courage...

I don't think it gets sweeter than this film, and it will make you appreciate your life, your relationships and yourself simply because you're forced to think of beauty, of goodness, and when you do that, you can see it wherever you haven't been able to see it before.

Thimothée Chalamet was amazing, as was Armie Hammer, but Elio's character stands out, as it should, for all the right reasons. I completely fell for him and he reminded me of the kind of guy I would've loved to be a teenager with. He's endeering, intelligent, loving, and, above all, he's his own person.

I'm so happy I watched this film; it's like a hug or a slow kiss that you wish would last forever.
