The effect is odd at best, and painfully cringeworthy at worst.
It doesnt help, either, that theres a rather heavy-handed use of CGI throughout.

Daniel Craig as William Lee inQueer.
Its a confounding choice.
Despite it all, though, Craig and Starkey are excellent.
Craig, meanwhile, fills his Lee with an overwhelming and utterly desperate neediness that is touchingly tragic.

Any plaudits and prizes he receives will be thoroughly deserved.
