Author says she didn't think story would be published
HOLLYWOOD -- E. Annie Proulx is sipping coffee at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills and talking about literary ghosts.
She has struggled for years to get Ennis and Jack out of her head. These are the two leads who fall in love in Proulx's short story "Brokeback Mountain," male ranch hands whose secrecy and self-denial is bleak ...

HOLLYWOOD -- "Brokeback Mountain" seems to have everything going for it: great reviews, a remarkable opening weekend and dominance in the first wave of the Hollywood awards season, underscored Tuesday by seven Golden Globe nominations, the most of any film.

Even while director Ang Lee's magnificen...

Silverman's "Jesus" mixes stand-up with musical interludes
"I don't care if you think I'm racist," says comedienne Sarah Silverman in her new mostly stand-up film, "Jesus Is Magic," "as long as you think I'm thin."
And that pretty much sums up Silverman's schtick. Oh wait, we can't fail to mention that she is perhaps one of the most filthy-mouthed, sex-obsessed comedienne...

Some 10 years ago, at a time when the gay rights movement was yet to gain momentum in India, a medical team inspecting conditions at Delhi’s Tihar Jail reported a high incidence of homosexual activity among its inmates. It recommended that prisoners be given condoms to minimise chances of HIV/AIDS transmissions.
But the recommendation went largely unimplemented. The reason was simple...

Over the next several weeks, the movie about two handsome young cowboys falling in love with each other — dubbed by some wags the gay "Gone With the Wind" — will be released across the United States in cities where its themes of repressed sexuality and cultural intolerance may prove a tougher sell than they have in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco, with their concentrations o...

itting through most movie remakes is akin to sitting through root canal surgery without Novocain.
These films typically exist to cash in on the success of the original or rope in unsuspecting viewers who never saw the original. More often than not, they resemble cinematic photocopies with only slight changes in plot. With originality completely ignored, the result is a truly rotten film....
