“Strange Way of Life” is a short film, with a major emphasis on the short part. This ‘Western’ themed slice-of-life drama blows in like a desert breeze, but lasts for less than an hour. It is from a celebrated director, with two fantastically talented actors in the lead roles. But the abbreviated story and screen time makes for a ‘strange way’ to utilize all of this talent.
I have to be honest. I did not think this movie was going to be very good. Stocks. GameStop. Kitty shirts. It didn’t seem like it would have very high entertainment value, especially for a particular crowd. I was happy to be wrong.
When you’ve watched the movie and look back at it, you’ll remember that “Flora and Son” was charming and sweet, even though, at times, it seemed anything but agreeable. You’ll see what I mean.
