Hi friends,
So, there's a movie coming out on December 9th called Brokeback Mountain. It's based on a short story by the same name, from a book called "Close Range, Wyoming Stories". I just read the book, and it's absolutely fantastic. Go immediately to the nearest public library and borrow a copy. When the movie comes out, go see it. Bring a friend. Bring 20 friends. Have them bring 20 friends. Once again: read book, watch movie.

why wouldn't it be? if it's at landmark, i'm sure chrys or joey or someone else can get you in. and if it's at yours, well you can get yourself in!

I saw the trailer tonight, and I was really impressed - a major Hollywood release about non-crossdressing, not funny, not stereotyped men who happen to be gay. It looks like there might be actual love scenes. Huzzah for America growing up.

I'm not certain that America has grown up; it'll depend on the box office returns for the movie. I was actually really skeptical, even having seen the trailer, until I read it. From reviews I've read so far, it seems like the movie follows the book vrey closely.
