	indieWIRE: Don't Fence Me In: Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain"
		While it's beyond doubtful that "Brokeback," even if it proves to be a multi-Oscared box-office success, will open the floodgates for a bevy of studio-financed gay-themed movies, its very conception seems to have created a heavy social burden that the film simply may not be able to carry.
		Both boys are sent together into the mountains to tend to a herd of sheep, and pretty much everyone who's going to see the film by now knows that as the days and weeks pass, a mutual attraction develops.
		While it would be too easy to wholly embrace "Brokeback Mountain" as an important turning point in American movies, it would also be too simple to casually brush it off for its inability to live up to the outsized parameters that have been placed around it.

	Brokeback Mountain
		Brokeback Mountain bears some similarities to Lee’s 1993 film The Wedding Banquet, in which a gay Chinese man living in New York with his lover must get himself a nice Chinese wife to appease his traditional parents back in Taiwan.
		Brokeback Mountain uses the West as a backdrop, but it’s not structured like a Western, and it’s not intended as a criticism of the genre like McCabe and Mrs.
		Brokeback Mountain is a film of great subtlety and precise observation, a film for which the best descriptors are words like “rich” and “authentic” and, possibly, “perfect.” After three viewings and some careful consideration, I’m damned if I can find a significant flaw.

	WorldNetDaily: 'Brokeback Mountain': Rape of the Marlboro Man
		"Brokeback Mountain," the controversial "gay cowboy" film that has garnered seven Golden Globe nominations and breathless media reviews – and has now emerged as a front-runner for the Oscars – is a brilliant propaganda film, reportedly causing viewers to change the way they feel about homosexual relationships and same-sex marriage.
		In "Brokeback Mountain," a film adaptation of the 1997 New Yorker short story by Annie Proulx, two 19-year-old ranchers named Ennis Del Mar (Heath Ledger) and Jack Twist (Jake Gyllenhaal) have been hired to guard sheep on a rugged mountain in 1963 Wyoming.
		What is important to the moviemakers, rather, is that the viewer be made to feel, and feel, and feel again as deeply as possible the exquisitely painful loneliness and heartache of the homosexual cowboys – denied their truest happiness because of an ignorant and homophobic society.

		Brokeback Mountain: (Gustavo Santaolalla) First published as a short story in The New Yorker in 1997, E. Annie Proulx's heartbreaking tale has been adapted with much acclaim by Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana for Ang Lee's full, feature length film, Brokeback Mountain.
