"The [Brokeback Mountain] trailer has aired in art house theaters, as might be expected.  But it has also run with mainstream fare, from the chick flick 'In Her Shoes' to the biopic 'Walk the Line.'  [James] Schamus says a friend saw it at a screening of 'Rent' and reported that the audience applauded. [Ang] Lee saw the trailer at a recent Calgary Flames game, not far from where the filming took place; the hockey crowd, he said, was 'very quiet.'"
