- THE PEDRO ALMODóVAR GAY COWBOY MOVIE AT CANN IS JT SO HOTWILD WESTALMODóVAR’S “GAY WBOY” SHORT FILM STARS TWO BETIFUL MEN (ETHAN HAWKE AND PEDRO PASL), FEATUR BETIFUL HORS, AND IS SHOT A WAY THAT IS JT SO… BETIFUL.ESTHER ZUCKERMANUPDATED MAY 19, 2023 3:39AM EDT / PUBLISHED MAY 17, 2023 11:38AM EDT PATHE UKCANNES, FRANCE—THE FIRST THG YOU NOTICE ABOUT PEDRO ALMODóVAR’S NEW GAY WBOY SHORT FILM STRANGE WAY OF LIFE IS HOW BETIFUL EVERYTHG IS. IN FACT, I NOTICED EVEN BEFORE THE MOVIE STARTED WHEN THE ST TOOK THE STAGE AT THE CANN FILM FTIVAL. THE ETERNALLY ATTRACTIVE ETHAN HAWKE, WHO -STARS WH PEDRO PASL, WAS JOED BY A GROUP OF FOUR ABSOLUTE HUNKS. “YOU N SEE THE BETI I AM WH,” ALMODóVAR SAID UPON TAKG THE STAGE, BEFORE ADDG, “BUT THEY ARE ALSO VERY GOOD ACTORS.”AND THEN THE MOVIE STARTED AND THE BETY ONLY ENHANCED. IN THIS 30-MUTE SHORT, THE MEN ARE BETIFUL, THE LANDSPE IS BETIFUL, THE CLOTH ARE BETIFUL, AND EVEN THE HORS ARE BETIFUL. (LIKE, THE ARE NOT YOUR NORMAL MOVIE HORS. THEY ARE STUNNG MOVIE HORS.)THE FACT THAT EVERYTHG IS SO GEO MAK SENSE. NOT ONLY IS THIS THE WORK OF ALMODóVAR, A MAN WHO F HIS IMAG WH LORS SO VIVID YOU VIEW THEM WAYS YOU NEVER IMAGED BEFORE, ’S ALSO PRODUCED BY FASHN IN SAT LRENT AND S CREATIVE DIRECTOR ANTHONY VACRELLO.BUT STRANGE WAY OF LIFE DON’T FEEL LIKE A FASHN HOE ADVERTISEMENT, EVEN THOUGH PASL AND HAWKE ARE WEARG BPOKE DUDS. (PASL’S TECHNILOR GREEN JACKET IS AN STANTLY VETABLE LOOK.) INSTEAD ’S A VERY ALMODóVAR TALE, A MELODRAMA LACED WH A HT OF VLENCE ABOUT TWO OLD LOVERS WHO MEET AFTER 25 YEARS. THE FILM OPENS WH YET ANOTHER BETIFUL MAN SGG A PLATIVE BALLAD, AS A RANCHER NAMED SILVA (PASL) RIS TO TOWN TO VIS HIS OLD IEND JAKE (HAWKE), NOW A SHERIFF. (PASL WAS NOT ON THE GROUND CANN, BUT HIS ENTRANCE WAS MET WH SOME WOLF-WHISTLE ADJACENT “WOOS” OM THOSE SEATED NEAR ME.) SILVA EXPLAS HE IS THERE TO SEE A DOCTOR FOR HIS BAD BACK. THEY TWO HAVE DNER, DRK WE, AND THEN END UP BED TOGETHER. THE MORNG AFTER THE TWO HAVE SEX, JAKE REMARKS THAT SILVA MT HAVE LIED ABOUT THE REASON FOR HIS ARRIVAL: HIS BACK DON’T SEEM ALL THAT BAD.IT’S HERE I WILL NOTE: THAT STRANGE WAY OF LIFE ISN’T ALL THAT EXPLIC. ALMODóVAR SHOWS HAWKE STARG AT PASL’S ASS BEFORE APPROACHG AND KISSG HIS NECK, FOLLOWED BY A CUT TO BLACK. THERE IS SOME BRIEF POST-AL NUDY, BUT THAT’S ALL. BUT THIS IS NOT TO SAY THAT ’S NOT SENSUAL. THE DIRECTOR IS MORE TERTED THE TUMULTUO HISTORY OF THE LOVERS THAN HE IS OTHER PROVOTNS.SOON THEIR TERACTN TURNS HOSTILE WHEN JAKE REALIZ WHY SILVA HAS REALLY RETURNED: HE IS THERE TO PROTECT HIS SON, WHO IS SPECTED TO HAVE MURRED JAKE’S AD BROTHER’S WIFE. THE TRYST TURNS TO A CHASE, WHERE BOTH HAVE LTFUL MEMORI OF THE FIRST TIME THEY HOOKED UP. (IN THE WE-DRENCHED FLASHBACKS THEY ARE PORTRAYED BY TWO EXTREMELY HOT YOUNGER, MOLQUE ACTORS.)WHOUT SPOILG WHAT HAPPENS, ALMODóVAR FDS AN ENDG THAT IS BOTH VERY ROMANTIC AND A LTLE FUCKED UP. THK: GAY WTERN PHANTOM THREAD. BEE OF THE ALL TOO BRIEF NNG TIME ’S POSSIBLE TO FEEL A LTLE SHORTCHANGED BY STRANGE WAY OF LIFE. YOU WANT MORE OF THE CHARACTERS AND THE IMAG. AT THE SAME TIME, ’S A PLEASURE TO GET TO SPEND A TY B OF TIME ALMODóVAR’S VISN OF WHAT A WTERN N BE.AT CANN, THE PREMIERE WAS FOLLOWED BY A NVERSATN WH HAWKE AND THE DIRECTOR, WHICH WAS LARGELY NDUCTED FRENCH AND SPANISH. BUT WHEN ALMODóVAR DID ANSWER A QUTN ENGLISH, HE DISCSED THE WTERN’S PLACE MORN CEMA. HE HIGHLIGHTED RECENT FILMS BY DIRECTORS JANE CAMPN, KELLY REICHARDT, AND CHLOé ZHAO AS EXAMPL OF HOW THE GENRE IS ALIVE, BEFORE THROWG POTED DISS TOWARD TAYLOR SHERIDAN’S TV SHOW YELLOWSTONE, AS EVINCE OF HOW NOT TO DO . “TO ME THE SERI IS VERY TRADNAL, THE WORST WAY,” HE SAID.SO MAYBE JT THK OF STRANGE WAY OF LIFE AS PEDRO ALMODóVAR’S ANTI-YELLOWSTONE.
