When Challengers screenwriter Justin Kuritzkes first agreed to adapt William S. Burroughs' Queer for director Luca Guadagnino, he had no idea where to begin.
The article from Mashable discusses an interview with Justin Kuritzkes, the screenwriter behind the film "Challengers," directed by Luca Guadagnino. Kuritzkes shares insights into the film's exploration of queer themes, particularly focusing on the complex dynamics of a love triangle involving tennis players. He explains how the sport of tennis serves as a metaphor for the characters' relationships, where the competitive nature of the game mirrors the emotional and sexual tensions among the trio. Kuritzkes also touches on the fluidity of sexual identity and how the film challenges traditional narratives by not labeling the characters' sexual orientations explicitly, allowing for a more nuanced portrayal of human desire and connection. The interview highlights how "Challengers" aims to push boundaries in storytelling by intertwining themes of competition, desire, and identity.
