The feud began when James Woods publicly started dissing Armie Hammer’s critically acclaimed new film Call Me By Your Name — which doesn’t come out for another two months and is already getting Oscar buzz (and we can’t wait to see it).
The film is about a homosexual romance between a 17-year-old graduate student and a 24-year-old college professor, who Hammer portrays.
Woods took to Twitter to criticize the age gap:
The NAMBLA hashtag refers to the North American Man / Boy Love Association, a group that is advocating for pedophilia to be legal in the United States.

Amber Tamblyn — actress who appears in 127 Hours and a re-appearing character in Two and a Half Men — also jumped in, responding to Hammer’s reply by saying:

Armie Hammer has not responded since his initial tweet.
