Queer Takes New York

I figure it's about time that I start posting some Drew Starkey photos here on the site to get ahead of the curve for when Luca Guadanino shoots him and makes him seem like the sexiest thing on the earth in Queer, his upcoming William S. Burroughs adaptation starring Daniel Craig. These photos are via a February story in GQ (there are more at the link) and I share them today along with the wonderful news that the NYFF just announced that Queer will be the Spotlight Gala film at this year's fest. They have a really lengthy synopsis of the movie at that link if you feel so inclined -- Queer is somehow a book I've never read (I've had a copy for literal decades but it's just been sitting there all this time) and at this point I am just waiting for the movie's version and then I'll read the book. So I am not reading NYFF's lengthy synopsis, is my point. I know the general story and the sexiness that Luca' promised and that's certainly enough for me.
