Gay Cowboys Eating Pudding
Ang Lee has directed a movie about gay cowboys, Brokeback Mountain, based on a short story by Annie Proulx. (Just when I thought she couldn't get more out of touch with reality...)

Heh. The last movie he directed was The Hulk. Wondering which movie was worse.
I wrote about this not too long ago. I mean - gay cowboys? Heath Ledger doing the nasty with another man? I can't see it. I don't want to see it.
That makes two of us. Yuck. Some stories are better left untold.
Movies getting great reviews.. daughter wants to go see it... which means I probably will. I'll let you know!
I think it'll be a box-office hit. It's got hot stars, somewhat decent director (if you politely overlook Hulk), and most importantly - a LOT of buzz.
