has-dropp__lead-standard-headg">When the celebrated Spanish tr Pedro Almodóvar cled to adapt Annie Proulx’s “<a href=">Brokeback Mounta</a>,” the job went to Ang Lee stead. Almodóvar later watched <a href=">Lee’s versn</a>, and was so stck by an exchange between protagonists Ennis l Mar (Heath Ledger) and Jack Twist (Jake Gyllenhaal) that he spent years nursg a rponse. Two s on, he’s unveiled a queer Wtern of his own: a thirty-one-mute short entled “Strange Way of Life.” The film, starrg Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pasl, is cidly an origal creatn, but the rhym between the two love stori are revealg. Jake (Hawke), like Ennis, is a stoic nial about the strength of his feelgs; Silva (Pasl), like Jack, is more attuned to—and willg to name—his own sir. In both plots, there are articl of clothg kept as remembranc, gay assignatns Mexi, and a qutn asked and answered starkly different terms. As Almodóvar <a href=">relled</a> an terview wh the <em>Tim</em>, “Heath says, ‘What would two men do the Wt, workg on a ranch?’ In many ways, I feel my film giv answer to that.”</p><p class="paywall">In “Strange Way of Life,” the qutn was first posed at the end of the young Jake and Silva’s brief but passnate flg. The romance began when the two (played flashback by Jason Fernánz and José Conssa) snuck to a cellar, shot up barrels of we wh their revolvers, and drank directly om the sks before scendg to a tipsy make-out ssn. When they meet aga, twenty-five years later, Silva still drks to remember “every sgle one of those sixty days”; Jake, who turned down Silva’s offer to build a life together, has long abstaed orr to fet. Neverthels, at dner the night of their rnn, he pours himself a glass, succumbg to one temptatn and then the other. Officially, Silva has e to town search of a doctor: “Believe or not, workg wh hors stroys your back,” he says. After a night of apparently vigoro sex, Jake repli dryly, “No one would ever know.”</p><p class="paywall">Pasl’s wboy is all warmth and flirtatn, given to dreamy votns of the uple’s shared “fate” and “sty,” which Hawke’s sheriff gffly rists. After the reprsed tensy of Pasl’s performance as Joel, another grizzled gunslger, “<a href=">The Last of Us</a>,” the role reversal is a pleasurable one: here, his pacy to munite ep-seated emotns a glance is ed to very different effect. But, when Silva’s more plited motiv for returng are revealed, the walls go back up, and nuendo giv way to harsher reali. Silva’s son, Joe, is wanted for murr, and Jake is the man tasked wh brgg him to jtice. Starg down the barrel of his ex-lover’s gun, Silva challeng him, askg, “How will you expla that? A ad man your bed still smellg of cum?”</p><div class="Contaer-bkChBi byNLHx"></div><p class="paywall">The pair race off to the sert on horseback, each tryg to reach Joe first—and remiscg separately about their formative months together Mexi. In Proulx’s short story, the untry is treated as a se of forbidn, displaced longg, never to be discsed. Jack, ’s implied, travels there for illic gay trysts between renzvo wh Ennis; when the latter asks whether he’s “been to Mexi,” the qutn verg on a threat. In “Strange Way of Life,” ’s where a gaggle of female sex workers wns the lovers’ first kiss—then shg and leave the boys to . “We’re not wanted,” one of the women says, as Jake and Silva roll around on the ground, graspg at each other’s fac, bodi, and eventually belt buckl.</p><p class="paywall">The vibrant productn sign, funny, forthright dialogue, and narrative swerv om sire to vlence are all hallmarks of <a href=">Almodóvar</a>, who seems to light playg wh the masculy of the genre and of his leads. But his signature rnchs has given way to a more subdued tert the moments before and after the act self, wh attractn nveyed through brief touch and long looks. Unlike Lee’s adaptatn of “Brokeback Mounta,” which charts a love affair through the s, the short is focsed primarily on life middle age. Though the more explic eroticism is outsourced to their younger unterparts, tensn still simmers between the olr men om the moment Pasl walks the door and an crlo, admirg se blooms on Hawke’s face. Their chemistry is palpable as the mera lgers appreciatively on their bodi; the evable armed standoff is jt as charged. Where Lee was ls ncerned wh tradnal Wterns, Almodóvar has liberately suated “Strange Way of Life” a broar tradn, payg visual tribute to classics such as “The Searchers” and shootg the same lotn as “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.” Durg the talk back that followed the film’s première, at Cann, he also voked ntemporary entri like Jane Campn’s “<a href=">The Power of the Dog</a>,” which hg on the adly flirtatn between a closeted rancher and a younger man—though, as he matter-of-factly poted out, “they didn’t fuck.”</p><p class="paywall">In “Brokeback Mounta,” the exchange that piqued Almodóvar’s tert marks the end of the road. Burned by their rpective marriag and the fear of homophobic retaliatn, Jack and Ennis’s liv together narrow to a vanishg pot until one is snuffed out entirely. “Strange Way of Life” tak a more utopian view. Almodóvar’s protagonists appear bisexual—Jake, we’re told, has had an affair wh a woman, and Joe’s existence is proof of at least one straight relatnship Silva’s past—but there are no wiv to prevent their fallg to bed together, and no one onscreen nmns or even qutns the relatnship. For the vast majory of the nng time, whether owg to productn nstrats or by sign, the uple are their own ltle world.</p><p class="paywall">Almodóvar may yet have the chance to populate that world more fully. At Cann, he dited that the short, which is slated for release by Sony Pictur Classics this fall, uld be the prelu to a feature. If so, one n image a treatment that tak s time velopg the men’s tangled dynamic rather than hastily sketchg out the tails. As stands, their arc is slight but sneakily affectg all the same. Although a nventnal happy endg is far om assured, the film’s fal moments Silva gets a send chance to articulate what two men n do for each other: “They n look after one another. Protect each other. They n keep each other pany.” ♦</p></div></div></div><div class="GridItem-buujkM fVLMby grid--em grid-layout__asi"><asi class="PersistentAsiWrapper-VGrR daRVRt persistent-asi"
