As someone who was once the junior by twenty years and had no fear of chasing the older man, I loved 'Call Me By Your Name'. It was so relatable. The same was true when I married a man several years younger than I. The shock to me has always been that my husband is so smart, so sweet and funny, what is he doing with a wise ass like me? Can't be my cooking.

To echo the thought so many have stated so well here, it has been terribly disappointing that we don't have access to more films about us. In the days of video stores I haunted them for their European videos that told our stories.

Many thanks both to James and to all who have commented.
