Brokeback Mountain is a love story. It is also a political movie. It will outrage and disgust many people and it will pierce the hearts of others. Movies and TV depict gay men as entertaining and feminine. It is a unique and learning experience for most to see them as rough cowboys and in an intense, deep love affair. For those in the audience who can get past their possible discomfort in "seeing two guys kissing," it is a very well done and touching story.
