The film Queer stars Daniel Craig as you have by no means seen him: as a junkie prowling the streets, hooking up, capturing up and guzzling tequila. He meets a good-looking younger man (Drew Starkey) he longs to attach with, they usually embark on a quest into the jungle searching for a drug that can unite them on a deep, religious stage. Directed by Luca Guadagnino (Challengers, Call Me By Your Name), the movie is predicated on a brief novel by William S. Burroughs.
