Isaw the trailer for Bareback Mounting last night on TV. It was very deceptive.
It showed both men in loving scenes with their wives beautiful country horses, But not one thing about them being fags. Very deceptive. My wife who never heard of the movie was surprised when I told her it was about two queers that leave their wives home and punk each other on the range.
I saw the trailer in the theater last week. It left no doubt as to the subject-matter. It showed one of the guys with a wife, but the major portion of the trailer showed the two guys together. It was disturbing. I was very upset to see that the kid who played Homer Hickam in October Sky is one of the gay cowboys.
When the preview started, I leaned over to my 15-year-old daughter and whispered, "This must be the gay cowboy movie." She thought I was nuts, but by the time the trailer ended, she was in total agreement.
I've seen that trailer, too--on HGTV. That, along with the commercials for a new form of birth control and the uptick of gay homeowners featured have me questioning the amount of time I watch that network. I have been a long-time viewer but I think that's about to end. It's sad that a home and garden network is too controversial for me to trust around my toddler. I can't be the only person in their key demographic to feel this way. As for movies in general, I read an article recently (I wish I could remember where) that said knowing about a movie is more important than actually seeing it nowadays. With so many internet resources, people can chat about a movie around the watercooler without wasting their money & precious time actually seeing it.
