Well, the denial of the Best Picture Oscar to the widely-agreed-upon Best Picture, Brokeback Mountain, can only be explained by the Academy members' homophobia and cowardice. Talk of Crash (which few saw) as Best Picture didn't start until the question of whether Hollywood was mature enough, brave enough, to award a "gay love story" the Best Picture Oscar was raised. So the homophobic rich straight white males who run America triumph again.
While we are very happy for the recognition of the gifts and talents of Diana, Larry, Ang and Gustavo, this is certainly a Day of National Mourning in Brokeback Nation.
