I've managed to scrape together what's left of me after watching Brokeback Mountain in a pre-period Horomone-ic State to tell you all that that movie was too sad. This film--cheers Ang Lee and that lady who wrote the short story--brought up some major issues for me. Politically. I realized that I've been ignoring something I feel strongly about and it's time I address it with you: We, as a nation, need to explore a new ratings system.
Funny-Appropriate for All Ages
Pathetic-Appropriate for Nearly All Ages
Not That Sad-Appropriate for Most Ages
Sad-Appropriate for Some Ages, But Not The Littlest Or The Oldest Or The Emotionally Vulnerable
Quite Sad-Appropriate for Everyone Who Isn't Prone to Tears
Real, Real Sad-Appropriate If You Have No Other Demands on You for the Rest of the Day
Do Not Watch This Because Its Sadness Runs Too Deep and It Will Sneak Up and Fill You With the Sadness of 1000 Rainy Days-Appropriate for Those Pronounced Legally Dead
