Rose Bertram put on a glamorous display in an eye-catching red gown as she arrived at the Queer premiere during Venice Film Festival on Tuesday.
The Belgian model, 29, flashed her sideboob in the halterneck dress, which features a floral ruffle skirt.
She accessorised with dainty silver jewellery and swept her blonde locks back in a neat bun, while sporting a flawless makeup look.
Directed by Luca Guadagnino, Queer is based on William Burroughs’ semi-autobiographical novella and stars Daniel Craig as American expat and war veteran William Lee, who has a romance with a younger man, Eugene Allerton (Drew Starkey), a drug addict and discharged Navy serviceman.
Initial reviews suggest moviegoers will be left shocked by the explicit nature of some of the key moments in the movie.
One much talked about scene, in particular, sees Daniel perform oral Sєx on Allerton.
Venice Film Festival boss Alberto Barbera said he believes Daniel has given ‘the performance of a lifetime’ in Queer, and added he’d be surprised if we don’t see the British actor at the Academy Awards next year.
It would mark the first ever Oscar nod for Craig.
The 81st Venice International Film Festival is organised by La Biennale di Venezia and is being held on the Lido di Venezia from August 28 to September 7.
Sigourney Weaver will receive the prestigious Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement award during the festival.
In the film, Allerton initially rejects Lee’s advances but eventually relents.
A source told the Daily Mail reported: ‘It’s a long way from Bond, and very explicit. Craig is brilliant in the film.’
Venice Film Festival boss Alberto Barbera said he believes Daniel has given ‘the performance of a lifetime’ in Queer, and added he’d be surprised if we don’t see the British actor at the Academy Awards next year.
Barbera told a journalist that Daniel had ‘a couple of Sєx scenes that are quite full-on’.
In an interview, Guadagnino commented: ‘Queer will be my most personal film. It’s a tribute to Powell and Pressburger.
‘I’ve seen The Red Shoes at least 50 times and I think they would appreciate the Sєx scenes in Queer, which are numerous and quite scandalous.’
The novella was penned between 1951 and 1953 but not published until 1985. Much of it was written in the aftermath of the death of Burroughs’ wife Joan Vollmer – who he sH๏τ in the head during a drinking party in Mexico City.
Their four-year-old son was in the room at the time. Burroughs said he was trying to shoot a glᴀss off her head, William Tell style, but later changed his story to say the weapon misfired.
He was convicted of manslaughter in his absence, after fleeing to the US.
Daniel lives mostly in New York these days with actress Rachel and their young daughter.
