le cinéma!

I finally made it to the movies. Brokeback Mountain was the choice. I truly enjoyed it on many grounds. I wondered during the movie whether the storyline would be as appealing if it were about heterosexual couple and I believe so. Going through that kind of pain due to separation, thwarted love, exclusion and an unfulfilled life seems miserable, unbearable.

In terms of the Oscars, I don't usually follow the nominations, etc. But I do hope that Paradise Now wins. Saw it many months ago with my mom. I remarked the objectivity it angled to present on such a delicate subject.
