Heterosexuals need lube too! And it's still romantic, so

I loved short story and I loved the movie, for different reasons. The story was very simple, very to the point. Desideratum, I think nonchalant is a great word to describe it.

I never read the book, but the movie was pretty gay.

I agree. And by "gay" I mean beautifully produced and written, with careful attention to detail and emotion.

The acting was superb.

I have read the short story though, and I cried at the end of both. Annie Proulx is a masterful writer.

Kane is such a hater. I haven't got the courage to go to check out where the fat, sixty year old, bigot works at the cash register.
