Title: Fantasy Cowgirls
Post by: vkm91941 on May 26, 2006, 11:59:33 pm
Although cowgirls share much with the cowboy, their history is somewhat different. There is no record of any girls or women driving cattle up the cattle trails of the Old West. Although many undoubtedly helped on the ranches, and in many cases ran them, few routinely dressed in the clothing suitable for working cattle from horseback.

This thread is dedicated to them

Selma Hayek and Penelope Cruz

Someone I know who's got an inside track to Hollywood, told me that Selma and Penelope are an item. I don't know how true that is, but they'd make a great looking couple.

It's Rain Phoenix. Sister of River and Joaquin Phoenix.
"Even Cowgirls get the Blues" is directed by Gus Van Sant, who also worked with River in "My Own Private Idahao" and with Joaquin in "To Die For".

Very talented family...the Phoenix family....

Uma Thurman scares the crap outa me...

Hunh?  Why?  I think she's dreamy.


And, yes, it's Rain Phoenix... sorry for not responding here earlier.  Isn't it true that Gus Van Sant had his "hat in the ring" for a long time hoping to direct Brokeback Mountain?  I'm really glad he didn't (although I do like some of his movies).

I'd love to see a Van Sant version of BBM. Love the few films of his that I've seen - my favourite is 'Elephant' which has to be one of the most atmospheric and unsettling movies I've ever seen.

That's what I read repeated times, too. IMDB names GVS and Joel Schumacher as directors who had been interested.
Though I liked MOPI very much, liked Good Will Hunting and think Drugstore Cowboy wasn't bad, I'm happy that Ang Lee did it and not GVS.
A good deal of the magic of BBM comes from it's ambiguity and the subtlies, and I don't think GVS would have made a subtle movie. I think he would have made a far more blunt movie.

But maybe I'm not fair, because I love the movie so much as it is right now. I can't imagine it with another director, or with other leads, or with another score, and so on.
It was a blessing that all the talents from Annie Proulx, Ossana&McMurtry, Jake, Heath, Michelle and so on (cinematograpy, score) melted together into such a beautiful piece of art.


And since this is a cowgirls picture thread, how about these two? They're cute, aren't hey?

Not a cowgirl, but she is my fantasy. Can anybody put a name to this goddess-like face??

Hey Lee,

Wow!  Good job reviving this old thread!  It's sort of spooky with so many of the pictures gone from the earlier posts.  Anyway,  she's definitely cute.   
I can't say I know who she is.  Do tell!
??? :)

She's Dominique Sanda, an Italian actress who starred in, among many other films, the Garden of the Fitzi-Continis and my all-time favorite movie The Conformiste.

Only because I've been around about a half=century before BBM came along.  :-\

Hey there Lee,

It's certainly all well and good to have favorite movies aside from or in addition to BBM.  I'm sure we all do.

I allow myself the indulgence of loving Bertolucci's films because Ang Lee does too. He studied the Italian greats while preparing for his own career.

Well I've tried to do some searches for "cowgirl pics" but all that kept poppin up was "porngirl pics"!   Ohh brother!   But i did find this pic that I remembered.  It was for a local Alberta beef promotion poster not too long ago.  It's really nice and puts the ladies in a very positive scene.  This is about the best pic I could find.
