"It could very well be the last film standing at this year's Oscars," a top Hollywood producer not associated with the film explained from Hollywood.

We can only hope. An Oscar for this film would only highlight how out insulated and out-of-touch the Hollywood elites are with the rest of the country.

This is what it's all about for them:

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS critic Jack Mathews predicts the gay cowboy movie, which takes place in Wyoming, may be "too much for red-state audiences, but it gives the liberal-leaning Academy a great chance to stick its thumb in conservatives' eyes."

And what's with the title - BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN

Is that some sort of play on words? See below.

PS - I can't believe Larry McMurtry wrote the screenplay.
