Collier Schorr’s Cinderella Motel film on New York Times Magazine Web Site

Cinderella Motel, a new short film by Season Two featured artist Collier Schorr, is currently playing on the New York Times Magazine’s video channel. The film depicts a group of cowboys holed up in a local motel the morning after a rodeo competition in Red Bluff, California. A montage of interviews with the young cowboys, footage of the actual rodeo, and still photographs of the men shot during the competition, the film encapsulates the moments between acts of intense physicality that define Schorr’s signature photographic (and now filmic) style.
