Lonesome Cowboys (1968)

The film's central thesis explicitly promotes progressive ideology by deconstructing traditional American masculinity and the Western genre through its explicit depiction of queer sexuality, gender fluidity, and counter-cultural communal living, directly challenging heteronormative and conservative societal norms.

This film's casting reflects the diverse and non-traditional personas of Andy Warhol's Factory, though it does not explicitly recast traditional roles based on race or gender. The narrative, however, strongly critiques traditional masculinity and the Western genre's archetypes by portraying its 'cowboys' in a subversive and often effeminate manner.
