The actress called working with the Call Me By Your Name Director crazy as she spent 26 hours on set. She further revealed they had a lot of pressure because they had three weeks until wrapping, and were in deep trenches. That time Guadagnino made a strange deamand to the 26-year-old actress. The Hugo star revealed,
“Guadagnino wanted my entire sequence in German, and he wanted it shot in all oners. So he was like, “No brakes, no nothing. You have to learn it all in German.”
She further claimed two days before shooting the sequence, the director said,
“I don’t want just German—I want it to be Germenglish”—like, German and English integrated. And it needed to flow in proper sentences as if she’s speaking both languages. And I was like, Cool!”
Despite all these, Moretz praised the director because working with him was fun, and he pushed her hard in the best way possible to be the best.
