Friendo who attended last night’s CAA screening of Luca Guadagnino and Daniel Craig ‘s Queer:
“Unless the movie itself doesn’t accumulate sufficient enthusiasm (it’s a pungent, sensual trip movie and anything but bland), it will be hard not to nominate Daniel Craig‘s emotionally vulnerable tour de force performance.”
It’s obviously historical — James Bond going homo. The bravery alone. The audacity.HE will be seeing Queer at the NYFF on Monday, 10.7.
In a post-screening discussion with a Vanity Fair guy whose name escapes, Craig said he’d spent a year getting his mind “wrapped up into the character.”
HE to friendo: “Who was the guy sitting in front of you with the big fat head?”
