Querelle (1982)

Querelle (1982) is famed German filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s adaptation of Jean Genet’s tale about a very unusual French whorehouse. Querelle (Brad Davis) is a French sailor who begins frequenting a brothel where his brother is the lover of the proprietor, Lysiane (Jeanne Moreau). Lysiane's bisexual husband, Nono, plays a bizarre dice game where if you win you can sleep with Lysiane but if you lose you must sleep with Nono. Querelle takes a walk on the wild side and loses the game on purpose! Those of the heterosexual persuasion should check out Natja Brunckhorst’s nude sweater warmers instead.
