based on Annie Proulx's story about two cowboys who meet in 1963 wrangling sheep in Wyoming and form a bond that transcends time and transforms their lives.

How did they miss the title "Rump Wranglers" for this one?

...story about two cowboys who meet in 1963 wrangling sheep ...

Then shouldn't they be more correctly called "sheepboys"?

"Brokeback Mountain" is plenty homosexual, when you think about it.

Obviously the intended title of this was "Bareback Mountain" before Marketing got to it.

To the Tune, Cowboy's Lament...

I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy,
I see by your outfit you're a cowboy, too.
We see by our outfits that we are both cowboys,
And if you get an outfit you can be a cowboy, too!

parsy, who ain't interested in this movie.

In other words, people who don't find sodomy uplifting are stupid.

Thanks, Heath.

Oh, and congratulations on almost finishing high school.
