Re: off topic: Brokeback Mountain

Yep, aka Close Range.

These are my favorite lines in the movie:

Jack Twist:
"Tell you what, we coulda had a good life together! Fuckin' real good 
life! Had us a place of our own. But you didn't want it, Ennis! So what 
we got now is Brokeback Mountain! Everything's built on that! That's all 
we got, boy, fuckin' all. So I hope you know that, even if you don't 
never know the rest! You count the damn few times we have been together 
in nearly twenty years and you measure the short fucking leash you keep 
me on - and then you ask me about Mexico and tell me you'll kill me for 
needing somethin' I don't hardly never get. You have no idea how bad it 
gets! I'm not you... I can't make it on a coupla high-altitude fucks 
once or twice a year! You are too much for me Ennis, you sonofawhoreson 
bitch! I wish I knew how to quit you."
