The definitive book capturing the mayhem and wonder of the Timothee Chalamet look-alike competition in New York City

On October 27th 2024, Anthony Po (Cheeseball Man), the mastermind of whimsical public events attended on a massive scale, organized a Timothee Chalamet look-alike competition in NYC's Washington Square Park, which he'd advertised weeks prior via anonymous, mysterious fliers posted around the city. Hundreds of spectators and a bevy of prospective Timothees turned up, only to be upstaged by the surprise appearance of the real Timothee Chalamet.

After the NYPD shut down the event and issued a summons and fine to photographer Jonathan Hollingsworth for setting up a shoot without a permit, he turned to his Polaroid camera as backup, producing fleeting, anonymous, and dreamlike portraits of the Timothees who got to be stars for a day in the galaxy of Timothee Chalamet.

The competition was more than just a well-attended curiosity in the park, but a definitive moment that captured the zeitgeist, treated as a major media event.

Call Me Timothee includes a Q&A with organizer Anthony Po and a rich selection of images documenting the event and capturing the many Timothees of the day.
