\n\tNot unlike the voting body for the Screen Actors Guild Awards, Kate Eberstadt has had Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet on the brain lately. On Tuesday (Feb. 25) morning, she\u2019s sharing an evocative music video for a sly indie-pop song titled \u201cTimmy Chalamet.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI want to drink champagne with Timmy Chalamet \/ Alone in the church in the middle of the day \/ Go to confession tell him what I want to say,\u201d sings the New York City-based artist over slinky cello strings and a laid-back, irresistible rhythm.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile we have five days to go to see if the Oscar-nominated 29-year-old pulls off a best actor win for his portrayal of Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown<\/em>, the video for \u201cTimmy Chalamet\u201d harks back to the actor\u2019s breakout role in Luca Guadagnino\u2019s Call Me By Your Name. <\/em>Directors Maud Oswald & Robin Giles shot \u201cTimmy Chalamet\u201d on film, which gives this clip the sun-soaked, idyllic look of that 2017 masterpiece, even if the imagery here is a bit more fatalistic: the infamous peach is presented here rotting with mold, while in another shot, Eberstadt immerses herself in a river, evoking John Everett Millais\u2019 classic painting Ophelia<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis song came out of a pretty lonely and unprecedented period of my life,\u201d explains Eberstadt. She\u2019d been working on an album in a cabin in Michigan when her partner, whom she lived with, broke up with her over the phone.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI was spiraling,\u201d she admits. \u201cI went on a walk in the snowy woods, processing it all. My producer Jake Crocker had sent me some beats to write to. I came across this one that was a little strange, with a cowbell in it. It felt dystopian in a way that resonated with the state of my world,\u201d she explains.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI had recently rewatched Call Me By Your Name <\/em>and was struck by Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet\u2019s incredibly vulnerable and generous performance \u2013 in particular, the final scene where he\u2019s crying by the fireplace. His heartbreak was so real, raw, palpable. I just felt like he would understand what I was going through.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe song came to her in \u201ca tiny little church in the woods,\u201d and she recorded a demo back at the cabin. A few months down the road, Eberstadt and Crocker recorded \u201cTimmy Chalamet\u201d in person, after which composer Phillip Peterson (Lana Del Rey, Haim, St. Vincent, P!nk) \u201cadded strings to the track that really made it sparkle,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

\n\tCheck out the video for Kate Eberstadt\u2019s \u201cTimmy Chalamet\u201d here.<\/p>\n
