They will play in hell to harm the souls.

".....an opportunity to explore the complexities of the tale..."

should read:

".....an opportunity to explore the complexities of the tail..."

[PowderMonkey]

The author, Annie Proulx, said that the operatic version would "present an opportunity to explore the complexities of the tale in a way neither her own short story nor the movie by director Ang Lee were able to do."

These people are so packed full of sh*t, it's a pure wonder they don't up and slide away.

Somehow I picture “What’s Opera Doc” where Viking Elmer Fudd is singing a duet with Bugs Bunny Brunhilde.

[Alex Murphy]

I don’t think I can top that reply.

Wait a minute! Wait a minute! They’re going to have an opera without a soprano in a lead role? Women arise! Shun this perverted act against women.

We’ve got a large and all-too-prominent segment in society who seem to have been “given over to a reprobate mind” (see Romans 1). As nauseating as they are, I pity them for they are as good as dead already.

“God’s Rejection, Reprobation”

Not bad. I’m kind of picturing Bugs Bunny Brunhilde meets Jessica from Roger Rabbit.

[dblshot]

I think we can rest assured that at the defining moment a note in the soprano range will be heard loud and clear.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Gee, somehow I missed Brokeback when it was in theaters, and never saw it on DVD either. Can someone fill me in on what I missed?

[Jeff Chandler]

"open up the characters involved in the doomed love affair."

Nah. Too easy.

[A'elian' nation]

“Nah. Too easy.”

Yeah, you’re right. Once I read that sentence from the author I had to Freep post it. Not to mention the operatic high notes. I, for one, wouldn’t wear glasses to the event.

[Chuzzlewit]

you people are missing the golden nugget in this story. Next up, we will most likely have the South Park version of this opera.

[Noumenon]

So who does Lindsey Graham play?

[JoeProBono]

[A'elian' nation]

Gee thanks Joe. You got one of Gomer Pyle too ?

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

The best criticism of the movie Brokeback Mountain is finding huge numbers of the DVD quietly remaindered in discount stores. Even at $3, they sit there, gathering dust, besides such fare as An Inconvenient Truth, Jimmy Carter Man From Plains, and (Shirley) Chisholm ‘72: Unbought & Unbossed.

The final insult is when such movies are bundled together in plastic wrap with two other such stinkers, then sold for $1.

we will most likely have the South Park version of this opera

Yeah ... with a title like, "B.M. at the Opera"
