[A]Brokeback Mountain is financially a success
[B]Critical acclaim has been won
[C]A daring but serious movie
[D]A gay western art movie
[E]A slow and heartbreaking movie
[F]The process of making Brokeback Mountain was long
Brokeback Mountain, a western about two cowboys, Ennis and Jack, and the convulsive, frustrating, 20-year love affair they endure, has quickly become the favorite topic of every late-night TV host. Jack’s plaintive cry to Ennis, "I wish I knew how to quit you!", is already on T-shirts.
【R1】______
Critics’ groups had heaped awards on the stars, director Ang Lee, producers Diana Ossana and James Schamus and screenwriters Ossana and Larry McMurtry. The scrolls gave way to statuettes, handed out at the Golden Globes in front of almost 19 million TV viewers. Brokeback Mountain won for Best Picture, Director and Screenplay. The film is the front runner for the Oscars.
【R2】______
The next step is to turn buzz into bucks, cachet into cash, and Brokeback Mountain has been doing just that. Opened in a mere six theaters Dec. 9, the film has expanded its screens each week. Late last week, it had amassed $34 million—a take that could easily reach $100 million between the announcement of the Academy Award nominations(Jan. 31)and Oscar night(Mar. 5). It has now expanded to 1,190 screens.
【R3】______
The film has managed to carry the luster of its daring, as one of the rare Hollywood movies that are frank about gay sexuality, without provoking the sustained ire of social and political conservatives. Most of those who disapprove of Brokeback Mountain—or think they would if they saw it—have curbed their outrage. They believe it’s a serious, sensitive movie.
【R4】______
Jack and Ennis, who come together on the range one cold night in 1963, are neither heroes nor villains—and never masters of their fates. They cannot articulate to each other or themselves the love and need they feel. The movie doesn’t judge any of that. It observes, compassionately, and that’s the secret of its hold on audiences of all social and political persuasions. The movie is heartbreaking because it shows the hearts of two strong men—and their women—in the long process of breaking.
【R5】______
McMurtry and Ossana bought the rights to Annie Proulx’s 11-page story soon after it appeared in the New Yorker in 1997 and have nursed it ever since. But for years it seemed one of those Hollywood dreams doomed to eternal turnaround. Directors Gus Van Sant and Joel Schumacher were attached to it, then cut loose. Finally Lee signed on. Lee and Schamus submitted the film to the Cannes festival, but were rejected. Not until the fests at Venice, and Toronto, did the Brokeback Mountain team get its first sniff of roses.
The film’s distributor, Focus Features had a marketing strategy that may be called a modified limited rollout. It released the film at a pace as measured as Lee’s direction. The studio purposefully sent the movie first to urban cinemas, but not necessarily the gay neighborhoods, and relied on word of mouth. But it also spent big, more than the movie cost to make, on marketing, especially to women. It figured the men would go along if they "do not want to look like a complete troglodyte to[their]girlfriends, " says Schamus.
