1950. William Lee, an American expat in Mexico City, spends his days almost entirely alone, except for a few contacts with other members of the small American community. His encounter with Eugene Allerton, an expat former soldier, new to the city, shows him, for the first time, that it might be finally possible to establish an intimate connection with somebody.

Critics Consensus

A phantasmagorical distillation of William S. Burroughs' preoccupations that's by turns meandering and vital, Queer marks one of Daniel Craig's most sterling performances yet.

Queer feels like the homogenized, sanitized version of events.

Slant Magazine

In the end, Luca Guadagnino effectively turns a very complicated literary figure into the kind of blubbering, nostalgic old man you’d expect to see in a student film or a Sundance prizewinner.

Rated: 2/4

Meandering and tonally even while squandering many opportunities to become an engrossing character study.

Flickering Myth

Daniel Craig dominates this trippy gay love story. Luca Guadagnino turns our dreams into William S. Burroughs' nightmares.

But at its most brilliant, Queer posits the notion that can sometimes inevitably lead to a life of devastating loneliness
