Before Brokeback Mountain
Someone mentioned me about
I like his review.
There are, of course, other themes in the film, like what it means to be a male, and the expectations put on men in our society, but the primary theme is that mentioned above. So, in regards to what is perhaps the most controversial film of the year, I liked it. A lot. It made me think and it made me feel, which is more than most “acceptable” films can say. I’ve heard a lot about the “gay agenda” of this film, from both schools of thought, and all I can say is, try to look deeper. This movie has more important things to talk about than simply, “Gay is good.”
…I myself believe that homosexuality is a sin, however I don’t think that homosexuals are horrible people. They are, like all of us, simply looking for love and human connection. That their search is a bit misguided is not only beside the point, but is, in fact, all the more reason why we should show these people love. If we do that, they will see God, and, if that happens, He’ll take care of the rest. But the initial outreach is our responsibility.
Very Offensive / 4½
