	O B L I Q U I T Y \| Exclusive: Brokeback Mountain
		Diana Ossana: I was in Texas staying with Larry McMurtry and some friends, one of whom had given me The New Yorker with Annie Proulx’s short story in it and recommended that I have a look at it.
		Diana Ossana: As powerful as the story was, with good parts for actors, I knew that it would take actors who were smart and brave to commit to this and go places emotionally that they’d never gone before – and a director who would be willing to make the movie on a modest budget.
		Diana Ossana: When Ennis met Alma, there may have been a physical attraction, but also a sense that, “this is what I’m supposed to do – get married and have children.” Ennis cares for Alma and loves her, but his love for her is not passion.

		I had tears in my eyes at the end, and it stayed with me. I [then] read Larry and Diana's screenplay, and it was a very faithful and great adaptation.\par \par \b James Schamus: \b0 In many ways, it's a truly grand, old-fashioned movie about two heroes, fighting against all odds to preserve their love.
		Diana was a great guide if you ever got a little lost, because she'd lived with these people for seven years and takes them very seriously - as seriously as if they were real.

		Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana opened the 1997 Texas Book Festival with a session in the Capitol's House Chamber -- august environs indeed for a book reading, and hardly big enough for the crowd on hand.
		Bad acoustics didn't help Ossana's wooden delivery, but the crowd was happy just to be there.
		The question-and-answer session that followed was serviceable, if a little preachy, as McMurtry and Ossana held forth on the virtues of reading, the "ruins of realism," and the legacy of Dobie, Bedichek, and Webb.

	Guide to the Larry McMurtry and Diana Osanna Papers, 1890-2004
		McMurtry became writing partners with Diana Ossana of Arizona for the screenplay “Pretty Boy Floyd”, in 1993, and has collaborated with her on many screenplays, teleplays, and novels since then.
		Although at the time Ossana had not previously published or even considered herself a “writer”, the pair found that her research skills, discipline, editing style and knack for writing female dialogue in particular complemented McMurtry’s work.
		This material is generally represented by notes, character lists, “step sheets” or plot outlines, annotated typescripts, and depending on how developed the project became, it could also include editorial and contract correspondence, and extensive production material for the film or teleplay (tv miniseries).
