Paul Schrader Says He Wrote ‘Peace and Love’ on Jacob Elordi’s Jockstrap Himself for ‘Oh, Canada’: ‘I Took That Burden Off’ Wardrobe Department’s ‘Shoulders’


Schrader revealed that he added a finishing touch to the jockstrap that Elordi's character wears during a scene in his new film 'Oh, Canada.'

Paul Schrader played a special role in his latest film, “Oh, Canada”: drawing on the jock strap that Jacob Elordi wears in one of the drama’s scenes. Rounding out the cast are Uma Thurman, Victoria Hill, Michael Imperioli, Penelope Mitchell and Kristine Froseth. Gere, who previously worked with Schrader on 1980’s “American Gigolo,” has been at Cannes several times over his decades-long career, including for Akira Kurosawa’s “Rhapsody in August,” which is honored on this year’s official poster for the festival.
