That said it'll sweep the Oscars I'm sure.
Then this movie was totally lost on you. You missed the the very substantial plot about their wives and families? You missed the part of them being gay during that time in history!?!?

Yes the plot is very simple. Its a very simple love story. That is why its so great! But I have watched Syriana 3 times now!! It complicated as hell as I guess you know. I would take both of us a long time try write out the plot of that movie, and donâ??t get me wrong I loved it!!

But that does not make it a single bit more intellectual than Brokeback!!
