It will take you into a surreal world of passion and sexuality, further than most would dare to go.
French sailor Querelle arrives in Brest and starts frequenting a strange whorehouse. He discovers that his brother Robert is the lover of the lady owner, Lysiane. Here, you can play dice with Nono, Lysiane's husband: if you win, you are allowed to make love with Lysiane; if you lose, you have to make love with Nono... Querelle loses on purpose.

This film is so odd. Much of the acting is like watching a bad porno while the plot and script veers wildly between pretentious and unintentionally hilarious...yet somehow it was weirdly watchable? It's definitely heading towards "so bad it's good" territory. If you've got a spare couple of hours and want to watch something that will make you repeatedly say "WTF" while laughing, then this is the film for you.
It's a heavily stylized film. Not just visually. The performances are heightened. The sexual frankness is progressive even today. I guess it's one of those films you have to watch more than once to appreciate but it doesn't make it easy to want to revisit it.
