Brokeback Mountain up for Movie of the Year
You have seen it as top news stories across the US and Worldwide that the Brokeback Mountail movie this year is winning multiple awards and getting chosen out over its straight competiting movies by critics. Heath Ledger stars in this hollywood romance about two cowboys that have to stay closeted for years. Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain" is introducing movie audiences to what some in hollywood are calling a new genre: the gay cowboy flick. Although, we have seen it before in the Trip.
Brokeback Mountain has won three awards from the New York Film Critics Circle, putting the film in pole position for Golden Globe nominations.. The Cowboy romance from Ang Lee was named best film, with Lee picking up best director and Heath Ledger winning best actor. The controversial film has already been named the year's best film by critics in Los Angeles and Boston.
Brokeback Mountain Review (from a straight reader of HGW):
This is one of the movies we saw over the Christmas holiday.
The movie has been protrayed as a stupid silly couple of gay cowboys making out...nothing could be farther from the truth......I saw more sex in the first 10 minutes of the "Wedding Crashers".
Brokeback Mountain is about a couple of cowboys in the early 60's but it is also about two women, two fathers, a mother, children, etc. Basically it is about life, love, hate, fear, sadness, happiness, friendship. It does not promote any gay agenda like these extreme religious people are saying but it tells a story, a very interesting and realistic story with outstanding acting from everyone in the movie. It was by far the best movie I saw this holiday.
