I am a 30-something, heterosexual woman--and a Christian (on the liberal end). I have been looking forward to seeing both of these movies for some time. I saw a BBC version of LWW from many years ago and thought it was interesting. It's only been recently, as an adult, that I became aware of its Christian symbolism. That isn't the only thing interested about LLW, however. I have enjoyed Lord of the Rings and the recent Harry Potter movie. What's wrong with some fantasy and talking animals? I also saw the preview for Brokeback Mountain sometime ago, which peaked my interest. Then again, I like several of Ang Lee's movies, and have seen plenty of movies about gay men. I find it amusing that some people, because of their own homophobia, can be in such denial about the reality of gay cowboys. The reality of gay cowboys or any group of people isn't dependant upon whether people approve or not.
