Pedro Almodóvar's 'Strange Way of Life': A Gay Western with Pedro Pascal and Ethan Hawke.

TL;DR Summary
Pedro Almodóvar's short film "Strange Way of Life" starring Pedro Pascal and Ethan Hawke tells the story of a gay cowboy seeking revenge and forbidden love. The film, inspired by Westerns such as "The Power of the Dog," could have easily been a full-length feature. The short film, which runs for 31 minutes, is ineligible for the best picture category at the Academy Awards due to its short runtime. The film will be released later in 2023 by Sony Pictures Classics.
