In 1950s Mexico City, an American immigrant in his late forties leads a lonely life in a small American community. However, the arrival of a young student prompts the man to finally form a meaningful connection with someone.. Daniel Craig was the one who ultimately convinced Luca Guadagnino to cast Drew Starkey after watching Guadagnino’s audition tapes and telling him "That's the guy" after seeing Starkey’s.. William Lee: Sit on Your Ass! Or What’s Left of It After Four Years in the Navy.. Featured on The Graham Norton Show: Daniel Craig/Nicola Coughlan/Jesse Eisenberg/Kieran Culkin/Flo (2024). The main reason is that the film was too abstract and acted like a stream of consciousness. The overall meaning is to explore the loneliness of the queer heart, the difficulty of forming connections with others, the pain of not being able to love, and the complex emotions of depression. But the performance technique is very stream of consciousness, especially the last 20 minutes, which have almost no lines and are completely used to express the inner world of the male protagonist through various blurs, hallucinations and abstract art forms. Although I understood what the director wanted to say, the form of expression may not be acceptable to the public, and at one point I wanted to walk off the stage.
