Italian TV (RAI) shows 'Brokeback Mountain' without gay scenes

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.

Absolutely agree with you too Luigi!
Very happy that you stopped by and hope to 'see' more of you in the future.

We will! Luigi is the first Italian Brokie I have met!

That's a very good point! I bet there's no second version. They, RAI and Bravo, have 'mutilated' the only version.
Artiste:
Such mutilation can we consider that as gay-bashing?

I am sooo excited! :D Have just found out that BbM will be aired again on 17th March, on RAI2! I should think this time is the uncut version as they promised. I am disappointed that it will be on after prime time though, at 23.40 hrs, I mean, there's plenty of sex on Italian TV all day long .....
A cut version of BbM was first aired on RAI2 last December, this caused a huge protest.
As much as I don't like watching Jack and Ennis speaking Italian (and I own two DVDs) I will watch it.
Will keep you posted ...

Good to know Friend! Yes, definitely let us know if they show an un-edited version. Taking out either TS1 or TS2 (and obviously the reunion kiss too) from BBM would make the movie's meaning sooooooooooo different.
Artiste:
Let us know !
Vive la différence!
I pray those scenes will be added; so, do tell us afterwards !
Au revoir,
hugs!
