Scott Urquhart is one of the three "Stand-ins" listed in the credits.

Don't confuse Scott Urquhart with Martin Urquhardt, BBM's "Field Biologist."

"W" is wrenching

All the promotion in the world couldn't keep "Geisha" -- an exotic, orientalist melodrama directed by a white male -- from feeling dishonest. Just as all the homophobia in the world couldn't keep audiences from tuning in to the wrenching realness of "Brokeback" -- a gay western directed by a straight Asian that nevertheless feels fundamentally sincere and authentic.

"X" is xpand

"We had the luxury of using our own imaginations to xpand and build upon that blueprint, rounding out characters, creating new scenes, fleshing out existing ones.  It was such an enjoyable experience, it made me wonder why more short stories were not adapted into films." 
--Diana Ossana on Proulx's short story in "Climbing Brokeback Mountain"

You've come through for us once again. I have to admit I have a newfound appreciation for Asian names, especially the ones that start with an "X" or a "Z".
