(no subject)
Standing in line to buy tickets for Memoirs of a Geisha, I over hear a conversation at the window next to me:
customer: "So it's a cowboy movie?"
clerk (sounding very small): "Well... it's about two cowboys..."
I had to turn away very quickly to avoid laughing in the man's face, though I do feel sorry for that poor clerk girl who had to explain Brokeback Mountain to a man who very obviously was not interested in a gay romance.
Which reminds me...
Bareback Mountain!!!???
It this the biggest complaint that people could come up with!? Where in all the eight corners of the world would two self-proclaimed straight men whould go up on a herding job in the middle of f-ing NOWHERE and conveniently bring a pack of condoms!!?? In 1963!!!??? HIV wasn't even public yet, and condoms were not regularly used to prevent STDs at the time, so where the heck to people get off complaining about ONE barebacking scene? There weren't any other sex scenes either, so for all the veiwer knows, they could have been using rubbers regularly.
ohhh... my brain breaks -_-
