Good Morning, World


I'm not sure where the internet got Pedro Pascal's nudity in Pedro Almodovar's gay cowboy short film Strange Way of Life but the internet has its ways and here are some gifs I found. The film, which just screened at NYFF, is only hitting theaters in New York and L.A. today and then some other theaters this weekend -- it's not (officially) available online, is the thing. And yet here we are and there's Pedro's butt! Honestly should just be the trailer though -- this is what gets people to watch your movie -- so I don't feel bad sharing. Go see this on the big screen y'all! The short is lovely but brief so I don't know if I have a full review in me for it -- I found the last scene and the last line deeply moving though, but do go in understanding this is very much a short film. It's not a full meal. And we all maybe wanted a full meal out of this, so you might be a little disappointed. I don't think you should be -- I think the main purpose of a short film (speaking broadly) is to get across one idea, one feeling -- it's a haiku; not even a full poem, much less a novel. And this does that. And it's lovely. All that and it also has Pedro Pascal porky-pigging it? See the thing. Hit the jump for a few more gifs...
