LONESOME COWBOYS Thursday 5/5 @ 4:00 pm 1967-68, 16mm film transferred to digital files, color, sound, 109 minutes, NR Directed by Andy Warhol

The film that marked the transition from Warhol’s early experimental works (SLEEP, EMPIRE) to Morrissey’s later, more commercially oriented narrative features, LONESOME COWBOYS is a largely improvised, over-the-top camp take on the Western.  When a roving gang of buff cowboys show up in a small Western town, they are not well re- ceived by the locals.  With an introduction by special guest Glenn O’Brien. with Joe D’Allesandro, Taylor Mead, Louis Waldon, Eric Emerson, Julian Burroughs, Allen Midgette, Tom Hompertz, and Francis Francine DVD & film still courtesy of The Andy Warhol Museum Collection of The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh Contribution The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Inc. ©2011 The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh, PA, a museum of Carnegie Institute.
