Jack Haven on ‘Midnight Cowboy’ [Updated Replay]

An earlier edit of this conversation was released in March of 2024, in conjunction with the release of director Gabriel Abrantes’ AMELIA’S CHILDREN.

Jack Haven comes from a creative family, and has been acting and creating music and art since childhood. In adulthood, success in their career has shown them the difference between being playing a role on screen and playing one in real life. Joe Buck, the pretend cowboy and wannabe hustler at the center of 1969’s MIDNIGHT COWBOY goes on a journey of identity, too. It’s also a journey of friendship, and one through the perils and pleasures of life in the big city. We brought back this episdoe (which originally aired just before I SAW THE TV GLOW was released) in celebration of Jack’s role as the central antagonist(?) in director Jane Schoenbrun’s latest film, TEENAGE SEX AND DEATH AT CAMP MIASMA.

Then, Jordan has a new one quick thing honoring the work and legacy of Hayden Panettiere.
