LONESOME COWBOYS

(1968)


DIRECTOR:
Andy Warhol, Paul Morrissey (Blood for Dracula)

STARS: Viva (Forbidden Zone), Tom Hompertz, Louis Walden, Joe Dallesandro (Trash), Taylor Mead

SYNOPSIS: Q: What happens when Andy Warhol and his "factory" stars make a western film on location? A: You get the most homoerotic arthouse western ever made (complete with heavy East Coast New Yawk accents)! The cast runs around an old western set riding horses, wrestling, fucking and giving drugged out philosophical rants. The only woman who appears in the film (Viva) has sex numerous times and is nearly raped in one scene. This film bridges the gap between Warhol's early arthouse experiments (Empire State Building, Blowjob, Sleep, etc.) and Morrissey's later films (Trash, Heat and Flesh). It has the fly-on-a-wall voyeuristic feel of Warhol with the documentary feel and improvisation of Morrissey's work. They use "in camera" editing which appears as very rough jump cuts in the video and sound (a technique that Morrissey fine tuned for later films). It features full frontal nudity - both make and female. Even kooky Taylor Mead, who seems to be high as a kite throughout the film, strips down to his underwear! Joe Dallesandro starred in Flesh the same year as this film.
