Drive-Away Dolls stars Margaret Qualley and Pedro Pascal
The Coen brothers are taking a break from being The Coen Brothers to make movies on their own for a while. In 2021, Joel Coen made his adaptation Macbeth, a bleak, brilliantly directed black-and-white version starring Denzel Washington and Frances McDormand. Now it’s Ethan’s turn with his first trailer Drive-Away Dollsa lesbian road-trip movie that looks like an absolute blast.
The story follows Jamie and Marian, two friends on an impromptu road trip to Tallahassee, where they encounter a typical array of absurd and incompetent criminals and very memorable Coen Brothers-esque supporting characters.
Even better, according to Ethan Coen himself, this film is only 83 minutes long, a perfect length for any film, and just the first in a trilogy of queer B-movies he’s working on.
Drive-Away Dolls Also starring Pedro Pascal, Matt Damon, Colman Domingo, Bill Camp and Beanie Feldstein. Along with directing the film, Ethan Coen also co-wrote it with frequent Coen Brothers editor Tricia Cooke.
Drive-Away Dolls is scheduled for release on September 22.
