STRANGE WAY OF LIFE (2023) Official Trailer [HD] Pedro Almodóvar, Ethan Hawke, Pedro Pascal

Official trailer for Pedro Almodóvar’s Strange Way of Life, starring Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pascal. In Cinemas one night only Sept 25.
A man rides a horse across the desert that separates him from Bitter Creek. He comes to visit Sheriff Jake. Twenty-five years earlier, both the sheriff and Silva, the rancher who rides out to meet him, worked together as hired gunmen. Silva visits him with the excuse of reuniting with his friend from his youth, and they do indeed celebrate their meeting, but the next morning Sheriff Jake tells him that the reason for his trip is not to go down the memory lane of their old friendship....

[@Nowhere6785]

I love how comedically camp and soap opera this trailer is

[@joshuabray37]

It looks like a parody trailer. I mean, is this a real movie? It looks like it could have the potential to be really good, but then part way through, it gets really campy.

[@jameer7565]

​@@joshuabray37 I think the trailer is framed campy but if you look at the scenes it's showing one by one it looks serious

[@joshuabray37]

@@jameer7565 yeah, I think it’s just a really badly edited trailer.

[@SuperlunarNim]

Reminds me a bit of Tears of the Black Tiger.

[@Countfoscolikesmice]

you mean, an almodovar production

[@madisongraham8457]

i couldnt grasp an inkling of the plot for this film besides "they are gay" "they are cowboys" and "they are gay cowboys" and im entirely ok with that

[@slim11yt]

I’m also gonna bet that they eat pudding

[@AlKalain]

Pedro is definitely not “Hollywood”, and his body of work has demonstrated over and over how original his scenarios can be.

[@kev2020]

I mean that's more than enough for a plot. 😂

This is very much a Pedro Almodovar project. The close up shots, the bright colors, the dramatic score, the intense acting, it's all there.

It's only 30 minutes?

[@mikdoubled]

@@saifbanihani6023 yes. It's a short film.

[@MayLily]

They literally only have 30 minutes to tell this story. I like how bright and colorful it is, along with the dramatic close-ups and clear quality of our leading men.

[@MayLily]

I'm loving the fact that Pedro Pascal's first leading romantic movie role is playing a cowboy in a gay Western romance drama. Thank you Mr. Almodovar!

[@ReelPodcasts]

What a weird trailer but exactly what I would expect from Almodovar.

[@emiliafischer6295]

Even after seeing this I don’t know anything about that movie except 1. Pedro Pascal and Ethan Hawke are gay cowboys, and 2. …well yeah…but yk what that’s enough for me to be seated.

[@rubinagomes2950]

Woah! That's intense 💖 And we'll only get 30 minutes of this.😭

You people know nothing about a cult director like Almodovar, his trailers are about vibes, not about plot, and his stories are always really well written. There's a reason why all actors want to work with him. The ridiculous "SNL parody" comments are shameful

[@DukeKeatsMusic]

Defo needs a black and white cut, the editing evokes the classic western era, looks great!

[@fruitcake6372]

@@YOUVBEENCHEESED man who has never seen a pedro almodovar film before:

[@xr7t7]

It’s giving “Old Hollywood” Western. Think, “Johnny Guitar” or any Douglas Sirk melodrama. The intense orchestral music really does make it.

[@errolpletcher9186]

Johnny Guitar is a hoot. 😅

[@AngelofMusic04]

Which makes sense as Almodóvar used "Johnny Guitar" as the movie Carmen Maura passes out doing ADR to in "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown".

[@marksalamon619]

"Years ago you asked me, 'What two men could do, living together on a ranch'... " American TV viewers in the early 1960s had a weekly opportunity to answer that question in the form of the Western series "Laramie" which aired from 1959 to 1963. The show featured actor John Smith as ranch owner "Slim Sherman" and Robert Fuller as "Jess Harper", a "hot-headed drifter" who shows up at the Sherman Ranch and moves in with Slim. While Slim and Jess were portrayed as buddies in the series, many of the "Laramie" episodes when viewed today almost seem to have a real homoerotic undercurrent.
