Yglesias Award Nominee

"Because watching any kind of physical intimacy between two men makes me extremely uncomfortable (you call it homophobia, I call it wiring), I’ve only seen “Brokeback” once but the final scene’s stayed with me ever since. Heath Ledger’s character alone in that house trailer with nothing but that shirt worn by Jake Gyllenhaal’s character to remember him by is emotionally devastating stuff. There’s nothing right or left about “Brokeback Mountain,” and I personally found it refreshing to see the rare Hollywood portrayal of homosexuals as something other than the easy stereotype of flamboyant Judy Garland fanatics," - John Nolte of Big Hollywood.
