I don’t really feel that there’s much of a difference,
responds Hammer. Trying to create chemistry with a human is trying to create chemistry with a human. It’s about taking it off of yourself and reading them and taking what they’re giving you and allowing it to affect you. It’s about being so close and intimate with someone that you can detect those subtle changes that allow you to go on this sort of subtle dance.
Meanwhile, Chalamet discusses Call Me By Your Name’s infamous peach scene. I remember eating a peach maybe a week after that scene and thinking,
Oh, we did a scene with this fruit.
I didn’t have it to the degree I do now but just from flicking around online, that’s the scene that’s consistently highlighted itself.
Chalamet continues, It’s funny because now I’m about as aware of that as I could be. When we were shooting that scene, you know, sometimes I really would forget that the camera was there. By the time we did that scene it was almost like an out of body experience.
