      He speaks just as fast in French as in English. His vocabulary is excellent. He makes a few mistakes because he does not speak French every day. I believe he probably was given the questions before the interview.

    Il est tellement sain, c'est ça aussi qui le rend si attirant et différent, habitué souvent aux histoires tragiques, là nous avons un jeune homme, remplit d'amour, humble, poli, qui a grandit dans une famille aimante, baignée dans l'art, la poésie, la danse, le théâtre, l'amour d'une famille partageant des petits déjeuners les matins d'été, c'est touchant et on l'envie beaucoup d'avoir eu cette chance, d'être soutenu dès son plus jeune âge dans son envie d'être un acteur. Comme quoi la recette du bonheur est finalement très simple, de l'amour, de la culture artistique du partage, du soutien. ET BBIM vous avez un Timothée Chalamet. J'ai toujours pensé que l'art apporte à un enfant de lui faire découvrir toute une palette d'émotions qui le construiront pour sa vie d'adulte. Timothée Chalamet, un grand et magnifique acteur, si doux, si poétique, son charme est magnétique. Je prie pour qu'il reste tel quel, et qu'il ne devienne pas trop Américain, qu'il garde cette douceur, cette euphorique jeunesse de vivre son rêve à chaque instant, son côté français sensible, le plus longtemps possible, car Hollywood broie ce genre de lumière.

    Excellentes réponses au point qu’il incarne l’intelligence d’Elio. Je serais ravi de voir Timothée faire partie d’un film français vu qu’il aimait des dialogues en français dans CMBYN. Ça m’étonne qu’à son âge, il avait vu les films dont il s’est inspiré.

      Katherine Llame Yes in the movie but not the book. He explains to Oliver that he's American, French, Italian in the film.

      There was but it’s because he’s not speaking French so often these days..

      Well, as an Italian girl (Italian and French are actually quite similar), French isn't that easy to learn and he is actually really nice. I'm studying it, yet to speak is really difficult compared to listening. Well, I think it's kind of the same for every language, but I find it particularly difficult with French especially.

      Agreed. The mistakes he makes mainly concern genders (le/la). And he has issues translating the words sometimes because English is deeply rooted in him and we can assume the words come to him in his mother tongue first. But overall, as a French native speaker, he’s doing really good for someone who doesn’t visit France often.

      I don't know anyone who can speak a language A) that is their 2nd B) most likely use 10% of time in their daily lives, perfectly. I work with many French/Spanish speakers their English is sub-par but in their mind it's fluent.But because they are trying and I usually get the idea of what they are trying to say, I respect and at times advise on the correct term/usage, not belittle to make them feel self conscious .
