That's what the flaming heterosexual Matthew Yglesias thinks Brokeback Mountain really needed. I'd say he's probably right. If such a deeply passionate movie about impossible longing were made about a couple of heterosexuals, the sex would have likely be veritably dripping off the screen. But he's also probably right about why we got more sheep instead. And I can't say I mind that much. It's still an extremely well-made and moving film. And I'll be pulling for it to win lots of Oscars tonight.
Actually of the 6 awards I'd most like to see go to my favorites tonight, 5 are associated with Brokeback Mountain.
Best Picture, Adapted Screenplay, Score & Director - Brokeback Mountain.
Best Supporting Actor - Jake Gyllenhaal of Brokeback Mounatin.
Best Supporting Actress - Amy Adams of Junebug.
