Trivia / Querelle

• Referenced by...: The VHS case appears in the beginning of Climax by Gaspar Noé.
• Star-Derailing Role: Brad Davis accumulated hype for Midnight Express and Chariots of Fire, but also struggled with drug addiction that majorly hindered his career. Starring in this film, a move which was called "career suicide" by at least one critic, essentially doomed him to lesser work before he contracted HIV, with the stigma preventing him from ever reaching the heights of his early popularity again, before his death in 1991.
