A period drama set in the 1950s and starring a Hollywood actor was 'robbed of an Oscar' fans have declared - and it's being shown on BBC2 tonight. Queer is set in 1950s Mexico City and Ecuador and the film follows an outcast American expatriate (played by James Bond star Daniel Craig) who becomes infatuated with a much younger man called Eugene Allerton (Drew Starkey), leading them on a surreal, trippy journey to South America. The movie premiered at the 81st Venice International Film Festival
