I was happy Crash won. I didn't see Brokeback Mountain, nor do I want to... but Crash was a very powerful film. It wasn't easy to watch, but it made for interesting discussions.

Dude, you should seriously see Brokeback Mountain it’s more than what people make it out to be, very powerful film even more so than Crash.

I watched some of the Oscars...and I hadn't even hard of the film Crash  Looked like it was pretty good though, and Brokeback Moutain seemed interesting too. Is it really about gay cowboys though? Not that I don't have anything aganist it, I just keep hearing people say it is, and some say it isnt.

The plot focuses on the relationship of two young men, it sounds like a gay flick but it’s seriously more than that. Too hard to explain properly, just rent it sometime.

I guess it will be worth a rental. But, if it's what I expect it to be, I won't like it. I'm not a huge fan where the whole plot revolves around character development. There's got to be another hook, or something really special in addition to that for me to like the movie.
