No, that's a love story between a man and a woman.
Artiste:
Oh! Thanks moremojo!
Any match to the BM movie?
Hugs!

It will be interesting to see what Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger will say about the film as the years pass.
I must admit that I'm NOT against a remake (or two or three or four) down the centuries... This story ranks among the finest and most important ever written. If Romeo and Juliet get endlessly pawed over, why not Brokeback Mountain? A new generation of actors. Different nuances emphasized from the book. And why not a great stage play that school drama departments can mount... endlessly bringing the story to life?

That would be awesome.

I agree, that it could be awesome.
There are already multiple versions of the story if you count both text versions (the New Yorker and Close Range versions), the film and the play in Europe... and now I guess this opera in NYC is in the works... So, it seems like this phenomenon is already happening a bit. I like the idea of the story being re-told and re-interpreted by different actors, etc. over the years. I think anything that would keep the Brokeback story in circulation would probably be a positive thing.
Artiste:
Hi to all!!
I wonder why so many, if not all of you, were so adamant on saying, to me, that you do not want any other BM movies, etc.; and, now, that you do??
Be assured that I am glad that some of you now want and accept some BM versions! Other versions, even a remake, till 30 years from now, can surely be helpful!! ?? You want one soon?
Hugs!
