Synopsis

Lee, who chronicles his life in Mexico City among American expat students and bar owners surviving on part-time jobs and GI Bill benefits, is driven to pursue a young man named Allerton, who is based on Adelbert Lewis Marker. Daniel Craig was ultimately the one who convinced Luca Guadagnino to cast Drew Starkey after watching audition tapes with Guadagnino and telling him “He’s the guy” after seeing Starkey.

(2024). This film is certainly one of the greatest films ever made.

Director Luca Guadagnino is one of the greatest gay directors of the 21st century

It is a story told at a brisk pace, told primarily not through words but through cinematic means of expression. A perfect blend of spectacular gay love and classical music that brings to life the creations of the human imagination in a way that is both realistic and poetic.

I would recommend this movie to everyone

I hope he wins many Oscars for this masterpiece in 2025. I can assure you that after watching it once, you will immediately want to see it again because of its quality.
