-I feel so bad
for all of you guys.
-No!
-You were waiting
in line outside,
you saw Jessica Chastain,
and now you´re like,
"Who the hell is this guy?"
[ Laughter ]
-No, no.
I -- We -- Honestly, everyone´s
going to know you, buddy.
-Okay.
-Yeah, if they don´t already.
I want to know
where are you from.
-I´m from New York. I grew up
like 15 blocks from here,
so this is --
-Is that right?
[ Cheers and applause ]
That´s the way to do it.
-Oh, man.
This is so strange.
-Is that right?
I thought you were French
for some reason.
-My dad´s French.
My dad, who´s in the back.
He´s watching me right here.
-Hi, dad. I met dad.
Yeah, I met dad.
-Listen, I had one --
I had one rule for myself
when I came out here,
and it wasn´t to go, "Oh my God,
I´m doing this
for the first time,"
and that is exactly
what I´m doing.
[ Laughter ]
But just gonna keep going.
-You´re doing great.
You have two big movies.
"Lady Bird," which you´re
fantastic in, and --
-I´m nothing like that guy
in real life, I promise,
for those who have seen it.
-No.
That´s what acting´s all about.
[ Laughter ]
I am this guy.
Yeah.
This is my job.
Yeah, this is me.
[ Cheers and applause ]
-Yeah!
-No, no, no.
I got to hear you, buddy.
"Call Me By Your Name."
I was blown away by this movie.
I couldn´t believe --
I go --
First of all, it´s gorgeous,
the way it was shot,
and where you were
in Northern Italy?
-In Northern Italy
in a town called Crema,
which is where our director
was from,
so could shoot a scene
and go home right away.
That was his game plan.
-Oh, my gosh.
You were fantastic in it.
-Thank you.
-Armie.
-Armie Hammer,
Michael Stuhlbarg.
Armie Hammer is unbelievable.
Oh, the guy -- your dad?
-Yeah, he has an amazing speech
at the end of the movie.
-The whole -- Again, I don´t
want to spoil anything
or say -- What can we actually
say about it?
It´s a coming of age story
set in the ´80s,
and this -- this kid´s family
is in Italy.
-It´s in Italy, yes,
and then Armie Hammer shows up,
and that´s --
-But he´s not playing
Armie Hammer.
-He´s not playing Armie.
-No, people are acting
in this movie.
-Yeah, yeah, there´s a lot
of acting going on.
And certainly I would hope
there´s a lot of acting in it
because Armie´s wife
would be really mad at me
if this all played out
in real life.
-Yeah.
You´ll see
what actually happens,
but the dialogue is so tricky.
I will also say,
I love the opening titles,
which I saw it was Chen Li
did the opening titles
because it´s these
beautiful pictures
of, like, statues and --
-I´m so glad you credited
that person,
and I might be wrong about this,
so maybe this has to get
fact checked or something,
but I´m pretty sure Luca
was just walking around Milan,
and he saw the font in the front
of a store he liked,
and he said, "I´ve got to get
in touch with that person.
They´re going to do the font
for the movie."
-That´s -- I saw that.
And I go, "Already,
I´m in a different world.
This is a movie
I´ve never seen."
-Fantastic.
-I loved it.
And then every single scene,
you go, "Gosh,
it´s so beautiful,"
and then you just see --
You´re 17 in the movie
or something?
-Yeah.
-And it´s just like, awkward
watching you grow up
and you go -- It´s just tricky.
[ Laughter ]
And I remember --
I was just like, obviously,
I had no idea
where it was going,
and I just thought you did
such a great job.
-Thank you.
Thank you.
-And like you said,
stay tuned to the end
of the movie,
which most people do
for a movie.
[ Laughter ]
But the end,
the end is
wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.
Well done, buddy.
-No spoilers.
No spoilers.
-No, I can´t spoil it,
but I will say, it does end.
The movie ends.
-The movie does end.
-Eventually, the movie ends.
Yeah, but well done,
and congrats on your success.
I love
that you´re from New York.
-Thank you.
-And your dad did a great job.
Did a great job.
-Thank you. Appreciate that.
[ Cheers and applause ]
I want to show everyone a clip.
Here´s Timothée Chalamet
in "Call Me By Your Name."
Check it out.
-Play that again.
-Play what again?
-The thing you played outside.
-Oh, you want me to play
the thing I played outside?
-Please.
-Ah.
Of course.
-I can´t believe
you changed it again.
-Oh, I changed it a little bit.
-Yeah.
Why?
-I just played it the way Busoni
would have played it
if he´s altered Liszt´s version.
-And what is wrong with Bach,
the way Bach
would have played Bach?
-Bach never wrote it
for the guitar.
In fact, we´re not even sure
Bach wrote at all.
-Forget I asked.
-Yeah.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Timothée Chalamet, everybody!
