Brokeback Mountain on German TV for the first time

Whoo-eee!
BBM will be shown on German TV for the first time. Somehow this makes me ridiculously happy :D.

It will be aired on Sunday, Feb 22nd, 20:15 on Pro Sieben.


Sunday evening, 20:15 is the best prime-time in Germany :). Later the same night the Osars will be aired on the same channel.
My TV guide lists BBM as top movie of the week and 'Tip of the Day' for the 22nd. And it rates movies, highest rate in any category is three points, lowest is zero (not one). BBM got three points in being sophisticated, one point for action, two for suspense, one for eroticism and zero for humor. I disagree somewhat with the humor rating, but overall am satisfied that they give BBM the outstanding place it deserves.

BTW, there's a small pic of Heath as the Joker on the cover on the issue, together with other Oscar favorites. :)

How about other non-US countries? Was BBM already shown on TV in your country? Eurobrokies? Aussies?

Yep, BBM was on tv here a couple of months ago. There was lots of publicity about the movie too, in all the tv magazines. A 'must see' movie.

And what a nice coincidence that it's on the 22nd of February. That's my BBM anniversary.  :)

Here in Italy it was aired not that long ago on RAI 2 (RAI is Italy's state television).
Some of you might remember (a thread was started here on BM) that TSN1, TSN2 and the Reunion kiss were censored. That prompted a HUGE protest. RAI general director and RAI 2 director had to apologise pretty fast and promised that the full version would be aired (we're waiting...).
I learnt that one shouldn't judge a nation by its  state television. RAI is something, Italians are something else. The sad thing is that whether we like it or not  we have to pay a licence.  :(

It is great that in Germany it will be on at the best prime-time. Will it be dubbed?

I'd give it 10 for the Reunion kiss alone!

Is German TV going to cut it up--delete scenes and such?

Ah yes, I remember your post about it.

Yes. Everything on German TV is dubbed :P (except for some very, very artsy no-budged films from places like Mongolia on the special arts-channel).
