None of the theaters near me are showing it, either, and there are five big ones. It's disappointing because I'd like to see it, which I never thought I'd say about a cowboy movie.
The title is pretty awful, though... my brain keeps correcting it to "bareback mountain."
I'm hoping one of the theaters will bump something else this weekend, or maybe one of the theaters at school will have it when I get back on Saturday.
I'm having the same problem here. Chickenshit, cowardly, ignorant assholes! And I'm not exactly living in the heartland of the bible belt either. WTF?? This is a movie that's gotten major Oscar buzz, and they still won't show it? I'm so fucking sick of the homophobia in this country.
I live within an hour--less--of New York on one side and Philadelphia on the other--we're not exactly the boondocks either. I'm in total agreement with you. Assholic assholes!
It's not even here yet. I want to kill our conservative ministers. *grumbles* Even the DVD mightn't come, I may have to download it from Ares or something..
Wow. I feel extremely lucky. There are three big, multi-plex type theaters near me, and they're *all* playing Brokeback. And I live in a red state! Wanna come to Virginia for the weekend? :)
I feel the same ... there is only one theater near my house playing Brokeback Mountain ... and I hope it's still playing there tomorrow night when I go to see it.

We have a local arty theater that is being cool enough to show it. I was worried I was going to have to wait for the dvd.
Do you have an arty theater anywhere around there?

I guess Heath Ledger isn't enough of a draw.

It's as though being gay is so catching it might leap off the screen...

I saw it once in a teeny tiny art house theater screen. I want to see it one more time on a regular sized screen.

There are people that drive 60 - 75 miles to work everyday and think nothing of it. They want to live in one place and work in another.
I'd make the drive if I were you. You definitely want to see this on the big screen.
