About Cowboy
Daniel Piron has the blues. His relationship is monotonous, his ideals have vanished, and even his job as a journalist is a joke. The only idea that still inspires him is to find and film Tony Sacchi, the revolutionary hero of his youth. Through this adventure, Daniel wants to rehabilitate the passionate and committed young man he once was. But, unfortunately for him, Sacchi has become a cynical gigolo. At the end of this tragicomic epic, will Daniel Piron finally understand that he must accept his disillusionment in order to find himself again?
Directed by Benoît Mariage, Cowboy leans on a strong ensemble — Benoît Poelvoorde, François Damiens, Gilbert Melki — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2007.
