you guys, i finally got to see cmbyn on the big screen yesterday and it was so so good!!! ❤

convinced hubby to see it in the original version with subtitles (which was kind of funny everytime they translated the french/italian stuff into english too, so the screen would be full of subtitles ;P). the audience (mostly couples, old and young, gay and hetero, a lovely mix of people) was behaving well and stayed to the very end (told hubby i was going to throw rocks at anyone who dared to leave before elio was done crying ;).) i was excited for their reaction to the peach scene (as expected, they went from laughter to complete silence in a heartbeat when elio broke down) and mr. perlman’s speech (also dead silence with choked sobbing thrown in every now and then (mostly from me). hubby liked the film a lot,too, which i wasn’t sure he would as he’s usually into political thrillers and such but he said he esp. loved the slow pace of cmbyn and the scenery. in short: i had a good night. 😀

ridiculousness has taken on a new form: i just read in a post by an anti that a teenager’s brain is not fully developed so they can’t make decisions, meaning: they cannot consent to sex. i’m literally speechless…

i’m re-re-…re-watching cmbyn and boy, mr. and mrs. perlman would both do oliver and no mistake!
