Chalupa's Movies: Cowboy del Amor

April 23, 2006

Cowboy del Amor

Cowboy del Amor is a documentary about a man named Ivan Thompson. Ivan is a cowboy who also happens to be a matchmaker. He hooks up American men with Mexican women. The movies follows Ivan as he tries to match up several customers and even tries to find a wife for himself. Ivan insists that he runs a reputable business and definitely discourages customers who are just looking for a 'common whore'. Ivan is more concerned about the people he helps than just making a buck. I think one of the best moments was on the DVD extras when Ivan talks about trying to inact revenge against one of his former business partners. Apparently the two of them started a business together and Ivan somehow got screwed. Well Ivan planned out how to blow up one of this guy's buildings. Right before he was going to go through with everything he found out lightening struck the building he was going to blow and burned it down. Also, another business the man owned burned to the ground on the exact same day. Ivan decided to let God handle revenge and just stick to living. This film definitely isn't exciting and thrilling, but I found it quite interesting. I would say a must see for the documentary fans.
