In Reply to: actually the original post called BM "gay"... posted by dave c on March 6, 2006 at 20:24:11:
That a story of two gay lovers is not controversial at all, even gay guys who wind up married at some point and had kids. It was the setting and time that shook people up and made people think--these guys were COWBOYS for goodness sakes, sheepherders in the vast Wyoming expanse, and further, everything was happening in the 1960s, when the public generally acted as if there weren't any gay people. That's what made the film controversial and interesting, not that it was a story about two gay guys who both married and had kids and then had second thoughts about what they had chosen to do. The latter is commonplace in modern society circa 2006 and would certainly not make fodder for a movie let alone a movie nominated as Best Picture.
