Today's online edition of Salt Lake City's local paper, The Deseret News, reported that the Megplex 17 at Jordan Commons in the Utah capital would not show the controversial 'gay Western' which stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Heth Ledger. Officials with the Jordan Commons Multiplex refused comment. Funnily enough, ads for the film complete with showtimes were listed in loca papers as the decision was made before deadlines for the movie ads. I saw the film at the Grandin Theatre here in Roanoke, Va.-yesterday. My feeling is if a 'gay movie' can play in Istanbul, as several have, then it should play in Salt Lake City. It is actually a good film, and as a straight man I loved he presence of one Anne Hathaway and of course, doesn't every one love a film which ticks off the far right?
