Here's an interesting take:
"I saw Brokeback Mountain over the weekend, and I can see why it will have a broad appeal. Although it's about gay cowboys, which most people cannot directly relate to, it's also about a man being trapped in a marriage when he would much rather be off doing something else, with the result that he is absent from the marriage in all the areas that count. That is something lots of men can relate to."
Don't give Concerned Women for America any ideas, ok?
