Brokeback Mountain failed to get the best picture Oscar. There’re legions of fans who claim that the only reason it didn’t get it is because the academy is deeply homophobic.
In sharp contrast, GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) recognized the movie by giving Ang Lee another award (possibly the last one for that movie). Ang Lee said that this is “an award that actually means something.” Unlike the Oscar?
Anyway, Lee continued by saying that “Brokeback Mountain has helped to change the world.” Does he mean there are scores of gay cowboys going back to Brokeback each year? I hope not…
