Queer is a novella by William S. Burroughs, partially a sequel to his 1953 novella Junkie. It is the basis for the 2024 film Queer directed by Luca Guadagnino from a screenplay by Justin Kuritzkes. Set in 1950s Mexico City and Ecuador, the film follows an outcast American expatriate (Daniel Craig) who becomes infatuated with a much younger man (Drew Starkey); Jason Schwartzman, Henry Zaga, and Lesley Manville also star.
