I broke down and saw the gay cowboy movie last night (AKA Brokeback Mountain). Haha... broke down... Brokeback... never mind. I was trying to be as open minded as possible before going to see the movie. I pride myself on my open mindedness (is that even a word?). I knew there was going to by some guy on guy action somewhere in the movie. I expected this and was ready to be an adult about it. What I didn't expect was to like the movie as much as I did. It's a tragic love story and was very much in your face about everything. I like movies like that. I want a movie to be real and raw and up front about everything.
I don't want to ruin the movie if anyone else out there hasn't seen it yet, but it was a good movie. Of course, they are no fools. They hooked us straight guys up with a couple of nude shots of women. After all, what good is a cowboy movie without naked women?
And on that subject, Anne Hathaway is no "princess" in this movie. I can see the Disney studio having a fit regarding her role in this movie. She was excellent though. She is ready for the more "adult" movies now. Not those kind of movies... get your mind out of the gutter.
So I give it three thumbs up... no wait... sorry two thumbs up. Damn it... now everyone is going to think I'm gay. Don't make me prove I'm not gay...
