I saw Brokeback with my family, too. V. AKWARD.
As a hugemongeous gay-rights advocate, I was so happy that this movie was released and is up for all the awards it is. However, when it came down to watching it; I didn't like it all that much...I have about thismuch of an attention span, and while I did enjoy the long, drawn-out-love-story aspect of it; I hated that there was no plot. I always get really irritated when moves don't have plots.
Cool camera angles and shots, though.
