The Unexpected Intimacy of Silence

A few months ago, I went to see the movie, Call Me by Your Name in theaters. When the movie finally ended, I was in tears, and felt that I had seen something truly unique. Capturing the intensity and sadness of first love, the movie shows how beautiful and intimate moments of quiet between characters can be.


Stillman’s Enduring Wit

If you enjoy comedies of manners, filled with gentle irony and witty dialog, I recommend the films of Whit Stillman.
