Brokeback Syndrome—More Than One Way Off the Mountain

http://www.christianpost.com/article/editorial/679/section/brokeback.syndrome%97more.than.one.way.off.the.mountain/1.htm

[The Christian Post] February 13, 2006--By now, the plot line of Brokeback Mountain is well known. For those just returning from another planet, here it is: in the early 1960s, two young, male sheep herders, Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar become sexually involved for a summer on Brokeback Mountain in Wyoming. Then, with no strings attached, they move on to marry heterosexually. After a few years they reunite and go on periodic fishing trips together where their fishing lines never get wet. Eventually Ennis’ marriage falls apart and Jack dies via suspicious circumstances.
