Pedro Pascal’s “lusty” gay Western premieres—here’s what audiences are saying about the sexy short film
A Strange Way Of Life is here. Yee-haw! Ever since it was announced that auteur filmmaker Pedro Alomodóvar would be making a short about gay cowboys—his answer to Brokeback Mountain—we’ve been hot on its trail, like a sheriff tracking a “WANTED” outlaw through the desert.While photos and a trailer have offered tantalizing glimpses of the Western romance between Pedro Pascal and Ethan Hawke, we’ve been patiently more details: How gay is A Strange Way Of Life, really?
How hot is it?Well, today, many of those questions are answered as the English-language film celebrates its world premiere at the 76th Annual Cannes Film Festival in France.First things first, Cannes is as much a fashion show as it is a film fest, and Almodóvar and his cast did not disappoint!
Pascal, sadly, was absent—presumably busy filming another project since he is our current reigning “It Daddy.” But Hawke looked great in a white suit, and his younger co-stars left zero crumbs on that carpet.Just a look at that collective smolder between Manu Riós, Jason Fernández, José Condessa, and George Steane!
Riós and Condessa, in particular, win the day by showing off a healthy amount of man-cleavage.STRANGE WAY OF LIFE Photocall at 76th Cannes Film Festival.
