Brokeback ends domestic theatrical run!
« on: April 21, 2006, 07:28:34 pm »
Is done within the US...over its 5 month (133 days/19 weeks) run it grossed $83,043,761.  Pretty good for a film 'with no potential'.......isn't that what O'Reilly said? 

Its kinda sad...it however is still averaging about 2 million overseas every week...

The film got pulled from its last local theatre the weekend before the DVD release. That hit me hard...I cried just like I had lost a friend, who I hadn't gotten to visit as many times as I should have (five in all). It's sad that the U.S. run has come to an end, but we do have the DVD to mitigate that somewhat. And what a run! This has been an amazing experience for so many of us, and we have lots of memories to cherish for a lifetime.

Ennis and Jack, you beautiful old souls, I salute you with my imaginary whiskey bottle.

With lots of love,
Scott

I saw it 38 times in the theatres.  Yes, it was an experience I will never forget.  :)

I salute them with a real whiskey bottle too!  ;)

Brokeback is STILL playing in Seattle @ THREE theaters (evenings only).  It was (I believe) one of the first cities to show it & it continues.

Anywhere else?

Actually it's still playing at ONE second run theatre in San Francisco called the Four Star theatre.  It is a double feature with Find Me Guilty. ??  ???

Even though I have it on DVD and everything, I emphatically miss seeing it on the big screen. Sure, each viewing kicked my ass but through all the heartbreak, to witness this film unfold on such a life-size screen was astonishing.
