Following hot on the heels of Challengers, Luca Guadagnino is back with another tale of love, desire and addiction in Queer – and music once again plays an important role in the film.

Queer stars Daniel Craig as American writer William Lee, who becomes obsessed with younger man Eugene Allerton (Drew Starkey).
Soon, the pair embark on a psychedelic journey across 1940s Latin America.
An atmospheric original score from Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, who teamed up with Guaganino not long ago on Challengers, accompanies the action, as well as a host of anachronistic music choices such as Nirvana’s Come as You Are and Radiohead’s Talk Show Host.
"What became clear when we signed on to do Queer was how much the book meant to Luca," Reznor recently told GQ.
"That was one of the things in his formative years that helped, I think, define him and had a very important role in who he is and how he sees himself. So we knew this wasn't going to be a flippant let's-see-what-happens project. This has real emotional weight for Luca."
The soundtrack also includes original song Vaster Than Empires, which features iconic Brazilian singer Caetano Veloso and for which the lyrics were lifted from author William S Burroughs’s memoirs, as well as Omar Apollo’s Te Maldigo.
Read on for the full list of songs in the movie.
