I have often fanticized about writing a book about Brokeback Mountain, and I even wrote the chapter headings for it once. But that's as far as I got. Has anyone else done this, besides Daniel, whose book I have?

What´s the title of Daniel´s book, Lee?


I´m sure you would do Brokeback justice, would you ever try to complete your book, Lee.

What´s the title of Daniel´s book, Lee?

His book is titled Dreamfilm and it includes discussion of the film, poems, and essays. It's very interesting and a loving tribute to the movie.

Do you mean a thread about a book that is to be written, or that has been written?

for release in November. The book seems more focused on the short story then the movie. An excellent choice if your book group will be reading Brokeback Mountain.
