Absolutely adore this film, it feels like childhood memories from Sophie's pov while also feeling personally connected to Calum's struggles and depression Frankie Corio who plays Sophie didn't have the full script while filming so she doesn't really know what Paul Mescal's character is struggling with in his story This is writer/ director Charlotte Wells debut film, what an amazing emotional masterpiece Thanks James

My favourite film of 2022, I was a mess for a week after watching this.

Great movie, great reaction. You're the 2nd reactor I've seen who doesn't usually get super emotional get emotional near the end. An incredibly debut that's laced with details that kill you on the rewatch. A small detail I read from someone else: The adult Sophie has the expensive rug that Callum went back to buy under her bed, so it's literally the first thing she steps onto every morning. And a detail I noticed myself: Callum tells Sophie that she can talk to him 'about anything' after she tells him about kissing a boy... i bet (from personal experience) she wishes she could have talked to him about 'liking girls' and having a girlfriend...

[edit] just to add, I agree with your interpretation, basically: Callum was 30yo and dealing with depression and suicidal ideation, barely holding it together, and he killed himself after Sophie left. The holiday was the last time she saw him. Some viewers suggest a few scenes may be non-chronological or foreshadowing (him walking into the ocean e.g). And adult Sophie is the same age Callum was when he killed himself, with a family of her own, desperately trying to understand why by rewatching the old holiday videos she recorded.
