Elio dissociates when watching Oliver dance with a female (most likely due to jealousy). He also dissociates in his bedroom, likely thinking about Oliver, in that same scene he begins to touch himself but that’s not the point. Yes, there is dissociation.

Elio becomes infatuated with Oliver and indulges in some mildly stalker-like behaviour (eg. sneaking into Oliver's room to put Oliver's boxer shorts over his face). It is presented as benign, never turns controlling or menacing, and Oliver is mostly flattered.

An alive fish is being carried to the kitchen by a man with bare hands.
You can see the fish opening and closing the mouth trying to breathe. I loved the movie but this scene made me look away.

Near the end of the film, Armie Hammer's character dances with a woman while Timothee Chalamet's character watches. When we cut from Armie dancing with the woman in front of a door to Timothee, he suddenly and unexpectedly vomits. It's over fairly quick, but surprising and very visible.

He also cried at the end of the movie but it wasn’t as serious as he did when he cried the first time.

No LGBT characters die. Also, there's no mention of HIV/AIDS despite being a film about gay/bisexual men in the 80s - which is kind of refreshing.

[SPOILERS] The lovers do not stay together in the end. However, to me, the ending was still hopeful. You have the sense that the relationship has been a positive experience overall, and Elio has his whole life ahead of him to meet other people and continue to explore his sexuality.
