We're finally going to see Brokeback Mountain. Frankly, even if it was an awful movie, it's worth going to just to show support for the film industry for having the guts to support a gay movie in the mainstream distribution channel. With all the negative messaging going on about gay marriage and the conservative tone of the current Republican administration, Brokeback Mountain's success as well as a other award nominees such as Capote renews hope that this country has not totally slipped back into the dark ages. We can only hope that tolerance will grow, one viewer at a time. Furthermore, as someone that used to live in Northern Colorado, just an hour south of the Wyoming border, I'd say that a little tolerance is overdue.
