"Fictional Places We Love" article

(1/2) > >>

fernly:
The travel section of the San Francisco Chronicle has an article today about a top 10 list of "...favorite unreal places, not because they are the most beautiful or Utopian (yawn), but because the description or script struck a chord that made us yearn to go there ..." and rightly so, Brokeback is on it.

Fernlly---Thanks. That is so cool.

It is such a beautiful place as depicted in the movie--for the breathtaking scenery and for what it gave Jack and Ennis.

Brokeback Mountain--As in a place we would like to "revisit"--I think most of us have our own Brokeback Mountain in our hearts too.

Penthesilea:
Wow, this is so  8). Thanks for posting it, Fern.
The article even mentions the findingbrokeback site. And I had to smile about this:
"Some "Brokeback" devotees use the nearby town of Ten Sleep as a jumping-off point for pilgrimages"

Now how does the author of the article know this, and about the findingbrokeback site?

Jeff Wrangler:
OK, so it's OT, but I am ridiculously happy to see that the Duchy of Grand Fenwick made the list.  ;D

The Mouse that Roared is one of the funniest things that I have ever read.  :)

I was wondering the same thing. And did you notice the author's name? SPUD Hilton? LOL
