HOLLYWOOD DREAMIN' br> Re: Yale Kramer's Brokeback Mountain and the Romance of Gayness : /p> p>And notice, too, how quickly Hollywood jumps from the "Gayatitude of the Movie of the Mount" to accepting and applauding movies glorifying Palestinian suicide bombers. Somehow, I wasn't aware of any country named Palestine except in Hollywood fantasyland. But then, Arabs, with no connection to a historically Roman Palestine, give themselves this mythical designation and "Presto, Change-o!" Fantasy comes to life. A truly Hollywood moment. Now I see the connection between these two entities. Silly me! br> -- Wolf Terner br> Fair Lawn, New Jersey /p> p> While Yale Kramer makes excellent points about "Brokeback Mountain" and the romance of gayness, my objections to the movie start with its description as a "cowboy" tale. As far as I know, the movie is about sheepherders. There's a difference, as any Westerner knows. br> -- Bill Macfadyen br> Santa Barbara, California /p>
