Brokeback Mountain (58:51) Rated R for a small pile of colourful words.
It’s been a while, but here’s our first Not 100 Project podcast in 4 months. Brokeback Mountain’s quiet heartbreak still resonates, especially as embodied by Heath Ledger. Jake Gyllenhaal is awfully good too. We tackle many angles in this one, including the ongoing debate about Brokeback v Crash at the Oscars. Buy some Sparkplug Coffee and saddle up Not100P #11!
