Sam Elliott apologized for making homophobic and xenophobic comments about The Power of the Dog
Photo: Rick Kern/Getty Images On Sunday, , Jane Campion’s twisty Western drama that picks apart the myth of the hypermasculine cowboy. During an episode of Marc Maron’s WTF podcast in February, he called the movie a “piece of shit,” likening its characters to Chippendales. “They’re running around in chaps and no shirts,” he said. “There’s all these allusions to homosexuality throughout the fucking movie.
Elliott apologized for his rant during a Deadline event this weekend, saying that he “wasn’t very articulate” in expressing his thoughts about the film. That movie struck a chord with me. And in trying to tell the guy, the WTF guy, how I felt about the film, I wasn’t very articulate about it. I said some things that hurt people. And I feel terrible about that. The gay community has been incredible to me my entire career. I’m sorry that I hurt any of those friends, and anyone else, by the words that I used.
