Brian wouldn’t watch this movie with me last night, but he still got to drink a Margarita. I’m not sure why he didn’t want to watch it. There really wasn’t that much man-on-man action going on in the movie (especially if you compare it to something like Six Feet Under or Oz, both of which we’ve watched). Maybe a “cowboy love story” just didn’t sound appealing to him.

An hour into the movie, I couldn’t figure out why anyone liked it–I just didn’t find the story believable. The relationship between the two seemingly came out of nowhere and I just found it hard to believe. But, by the end of the movie, I did believe it and that redeemed the movie for me.
