Timothee Chalamet as Elio Perlman in “CALL ME BY YOUR NAME”
Daniel Day-Lewis as Reynolds Woodcock in “PHANTOM THREAD”
Daniel Kaluuya as Chris Washington in “GET OUT”
Josh O’Connor as Johnny Saxby in “GOD’S OWN COUNTRY”
Robert Pattinson as Constantine "Connie" Nikas in “GOOD TIME”
AND THE WINNER IS:
TIMOTHEE CHALAMET AS ELIO PERLMAN IN “CALL ME BY YOUR NAME”
This is the first win and nomination for Timothee Chalamet.
I took notice of Chalamet in Julia Hart's Miss Stevens last year which is why he was never in contention for my breakthrough award. Thankfully this year he has proved to be a great new talent with his work in Call Me By Your Name. At the age of 21 Chalamet has showed so much that his work bests some of the greats this year. When I think about him in this film my mind returns to the film's finale with the extended closeup as his character Elio experiences a deep loss for possibly the first time in his life. This take really relies on Chalamet to express a wide variety of emotions which he executes expertly. His performance in this particular scene highlights the film that came prior as we really see how much this relationship mattered to him. Well done to Chalamet who has now been noticed by the rest of the world and I look forward to what comes next as we've only experienced a small section of his film career.
