Italian TV (RAI) shows 'Brokeback Mountain' without gay scenes
luigival:
Absolutely agree Sel!
At the very end the huge "mistake", or whatever it was, made by RAI will be good for BBM, because now the movie and the story are again spoken a lot about, with chances to attract more people to watch/read them, reinforcing their appeal and probably convincing even more people of the beauty of this unique masterpiece.
I missed - fortunately I must say - the RAI broadcast last monday. Would have been furious to see a "mutilated" version of BBM. Let's see if they will be brave enough and coherent with what they said and air it again.

Please keep us informed, tutti Broki italiani!

Is italy starting to be taken over my Islam, such as muslims radicals and so fears love in films now as in the Brokeback Mountain movie or any other love story even between heterosexual man and woman !?
optom3:
It is all very reminiscent of the Bravo fiasco, which drove me nuts. They cut so much, the 20 year enduring affair was simply not credible to the uninitiated viewer.
They changed the script as well, which was hardly a translation error.They just did not have the courage to show the real version. As with this instance an absoloute deluge of complaints followed and Bravo apologised, saying they hd show the wrong version.
Where did this alleged 2nd version originate. Is it sanctioned by Lee et al. It all seems very odd.Same cuts and same excuse. !!!!
Artiste:
Merco optom!
Your posy says something!
......
So, optom, then:
Maybe, then there is a conspiracy ?
Even to show that gay men are not like humans, not worthy of human love ?
Many persons do think that gay men are like animals... not called humans! ?
Being a gay man, I have seen that !
Even on Bettermost, I have been told not use the word homosexual nor gay... by some, unfortunately!
So, (some of) those showing the Brokeback Mountain movie would do the same as it was on BRAVO and now in Italy: omit on purpose reference to gay love ?
Au revoir,
hugs!
