Is this how sad humanity has come to ?
London: "Brokeback Mountain", a highly acclaimed movie starring Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, has been banned from a theatre in the American
state of Utah due to gay sex scenes.
According to contactmusic.com, Larry Miller, owner of the Salt Lake City theatre, changed the movie's screening plans and decided not to show the
controversial film. It was supposed to open Friday but the management refused to comment further on its reasons for pulling out the film.
Mike Thompson, the executive director of the state's leading gay rights advocacy group Equality Utah, says: "It's just a shame that such a
beautiful and award-winning film, with so much buzz about it, is not being made available to a broad Utah audience because of personal bias."
Its real simple if this movie offends you DONT SEE IT. Its not like the 2 cowboys played by Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal under age. I bet my left
leg if this was a Hetrosexual sex scene there would be a line halfway up the block to get tickets to see the flim. Now i understand this movie is not
for kids or people under 18, but as for adults why ban the movie on YOUR personal bias is not seeing the flim substantial ?. Are you scared that if
you see a gay sex scene you are going to let your mind wonder ?.
Im a Hetrosexual male who could care less over a gay sex scene . IMHO If they can ban Brokeback Mountain", a highly acclaimed movie then why dont
they ban crap like "black hawk down" ?
