I wish there was more story to this- it feels way too fast and while it does technically tell a complete story I had not arrived at the same page as the characters by the time we got to the
fisting scene
. Also did not expect
giant monster river sex
but that’s on me. Also confirming the huuuge age gap in the romance (I knew Leslie was a bit older having been to war and back but not exactly how much older) really made me check out of the romance completely. I’ve never seen call me by your name, and I’ve never fully understood the appeal of the huge age gap queer relationship even as Luca Gugenheimer makes what I believe to be a SECOND movie about exactly that (Queer)
