Did the promoters of Brokeback Mountain copy edit your review, or just sponsor it?
From paragraph 1:
"heavily marketed Christian overtones" should be "heavily marketed [blockbuster] with Christian overtones." Sure they advertise the overtones...because they're essential to the movie. C.S. Lewis was a theologian after all.
"a small love story about two cowboys" is conspicuous in its omission of "gay." It's not like they're two best buds in a tandem search for love, like the sentence insincerely implies.
I laughed out loud at the contradiction in paragraph 3:
Brokeback Mountain is "in no way political," but it's billboards announce "love is a force of nature." This is so willfully dumb. The "naturalness" of homosexuality is THE number one talking point for political, social and medical scientists, not to mention the average moviegoing American.
I could go on, but I stopped caring. You should really at least pretend to be objective though...the constant Brokeback Mountain advertisements don't help either.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
