MANY of you are giving false information about the movie.
Some facts about the movie:
They ARE cowboys. They work on ranches and they rodeo. They herd sheep JUST for the summer to make some extra money.
They were NOT married w/children when they first met and became involved.
Only one of the SHEEPHERDERS marriage dissolved.
And you Einstein's DO know that 1/2 of all marriages end in divorce, right?
As stated on another thread on this board....
Women do not find 2 guys having sex "sexy." DUH!
2 guys is not a "turn on" anymore for US than it is for YOU!
THAT is not what TURNS US ON about Brokeback Mountain.
Which one of you geniuses thought that was the case?
The film does NOT have a phony message. It has a very real message.
It in NO WAY (not even a litte TINY bit) glorifies the gay lifestyle.
It simply depicts the agony and heartbreak of loneliness.
I would like to refer this group of nasty people to the following article:

Come on, have the guts to actually READ this commentary carefully and THINK about seeing Brokeback Mountain for yourself before you unfairly judge it. The commentary is written by a macho straight guy.
See it and THEN come back and let us know if you still feel the same way. If you do, fine.
But get your facts!
I am white, female, straight, middle-aged,married, conservative mother of 5 who thought Breakback Mountain was exceptional....BOTH times I saw it!
There is only ONE God...and YOU'RE not Him!
Only HE will judge us all and we ALL have fallen short.
