Human

The December 11 issue of "Entertainment Weekly" is about, in part, "the 100 greatest movies, TV shows, albums, books, characters, scenes, episodes, dresses, music videos, and trends that entertained us over the past 10 years."

Number eleven on the list is worth noting.  It's the movie "Brokeback Mountain," starring the late Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal.  Always on the pulse of what's happening, "EW" had this to say about it:

'Everyone called it "The Gay Cowboy Movie."  Until they saw it.  In the end, Ang Lee's 2005 love story wasn't gay or straight, just human [p. 77].'

Amen!  That's all I have to say.  Amen!  Someone else gets it.
