Call me by your name. (Cast and composer)

Did I miss something? Are they making this a musical?

This was an intimate, lovely, low budget movie shot on 33mm film in Italy. That is probably lost on someone like you but it was a perfect movie. It will never be and should never be touched.

Who's going to play the peach?

Well I’m not saying that it will be made into a musical. But I do like the intimacy and honesty by which it comes by. Who knows maybe it’s just the casting chemistry. But I will say that there has been some talks with producers and creatives on Developing it. How far it will ever go. I don’t know. But very very early discussions yes.

Andrew Lloyd Webber obviously, with Chloe Fineman as Elio.

I can't really understand the idea that the story is too lowkey and intimate to be adapted into a musical tbh. Lisa Kron would be my first choice.

Should not? Sure. Could not? Mmm, crazier things have happened.

I'm very aware of what it was before it was a film, thanks so much. Doesn't make one word of my statement less true or relevant. It will never happen. Period.

There's no such thing as 33mm film. Try to educate yourself before commenting next time. Thanks so much.

It was shot with one 35 mm camera according to this article.

And Bwaygurl2, pointing this out doesn't require such a rude response to the person who originally posted 33 mm. Could easily have been a typo.

Actually, Sutton's original response was snide and nasty. They deserved that rude response. "That is probably lost on someone like you."

I stand by the book being good source material for a musical or an opera. It would have to be a very intimate chamber piece. The writing of the book is rather flowery and poetic from what I remember which would probably make for good lyrics.
