Starring Daniel Craig in a Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild nominated performance. In 1950s Mexico City, William Lee, an American ex-pat in his late forties, leads a solitary life amidst a small American community. However, the arrival in town of Eugene Allerton, a young student, stirs William into finally establishing a meaningful connection with someone.

Embodying Burroughs’ alter ego and cycling through Lee’s lust, jealousy, world-weariness, neediness, and bliss, Craig cracks this smitten, doomed romantic wide open. It’s the role of a lifetime if you hold nothing back. So he doesn’t. -Rolling Stone

Craig is impossible to look away from; his bouts of desperation and all-consuming yearning command your attention at every turn in a way that feels both highly manicured yet totally disheveled. -Chicago Reader

It’s Craig’s powerful performance that makes it. Much is asked of him and he delivers. In lesser hands, Lee would definitely be repellent, but Craig deploys his ravaged charisma to imbue him with such pain and longing and woundedness that we feel for him. -The Spectator

Guadagnino has followed up this year’s triumphant tennis drama Challengers with a film that would seem miles apart, yet treats desire equally as a kind of supernatural possession. -Independent

Queer is both visually lush, sexually explosive, and emotionally infuriating. It is not a journey that leaves our hearts full, but open and aching. -Mashable
