The Social Impact of "Brokeback Mountain:" A Reception Study

Bermudez, Pilar Aurelia 01 January 2008 (has links)
The film "Brokeback Mountain" was released in December of 2005 into mainstream theaters and to general audiences. Director Ang Lee, screenwriters Diana Ossana and Larry McMurtry, and actors Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal made this film in which the storyline revolves around two men falling in love and how this forbidden love would affect the rest of their lives. The shock of having a film with two men kissing and having sex in the theaters seemed to have struck a nerve with many viewers. Some were very positive, hailing the film as a new step in mainstream films to show a queer relationship, others were negative, criticizing the film even at times condemning what was shown on the screen. The impact of the film made debate and conversations about queer content available to a public forum, in this case newspapers from around the country.

Crying for Change: Examining the Use of Period Melodrama and the Melodramatic Mode in Contemporary Queer Representation

Bonthuys, Justin 08 1900 (has links)
This thesis illustrates how Melodrama and the melodramatic mode have been adapted within contemporary cinema as both a means of commenting on prior LGBTQI representation, and of exposing mainstream audiences to the issues still faced by many within this spectrum. Through my analyses of Carol (2015), Brokeback Mountain (2005), and A Single Man (2009), I examine how filmmakers have drawn on Melodrama as both an aesthetic form, and as a reference to the broader field of generic history and criticism which ground it as a subversive form of societal critique. By focusing specifically on how these three films portray ideological issues of gender, stereotyping, parenthood, aging, and personal shame, my thesis argues that these films are making a commentary on the damaging effects of these discourses on broader society. I also simultaneously question whether the Period Melodrama as a genre can ever fully escape the conservative nature of this form, as well as the implications of continuing to portray those on the LGBTQI spectrum as victims.

Two Entwined, Closeted Shirts : A Literary Analysis of Annie Proulx's "Brokeback Mountain" Through a Queer Lens and Its Pedagogical Applicability in the EFL Classroom

Frank, Henrik January 2021 (has links)
This essay focuses on how masculinities are performed and portrayed in Annie Proulx’s novella “Brokeback Mountain” (1997). The thesis argues that through examining the characters’ portrayals of masculinity, readers might develop a deeper, nuanced understanding of gender normativity today. The novella is analysed through a queer perspective with hegemonic gender traits as the main tools for the analysis. The analysis shows how the protagonists Ennis and Jack perform their masculinities in accordance with the heterosexual matrix, while also living in fear of deviating from it. The essay also includes a pedagogical section in which the value of incorporating “Brokeback Mountain” in the EFL classroom is advocated to promote inclusive teaching and question gender normativity. Additionally, the pedagogical implications discuss the relationship between gender normativity and intolerance and homophobia.

Den homosexuella karaktären – en analys om porträttering : Hur porträtteras kvinnlig homosexualitet jämfört med manlig homosexualitet?

Söderström, Ellen January 2022 (has links)
Denna uppsats analyserar och diskuterar porträtteringen av homosexuella män och homosexuella kvinnor i film. Porträtteringen diskuteras huvudsakligen genom linsen av genus och heteronormativitet i filmerna Brokeback Mountain (2005), Carol (2015),Love, Simon (2018) och But I’m a Cheerleader (1999). Meningen med uppsatsen är att se om det finns tydliga skillnader mellan porträtteringen av homosexuella män och homosexuella kvinnor. Resultatet visar att i dessa fyra filmer det finns fler likheter än skillnader när det kommer till porträttering utifrån perspektivet av genus och heteronormativitet. Slutsatsen av studien är att trots de få skillnaderna i porträttering av homosexualitet mellan män och kvinnor blir filmerna om män mer uppmärksammade i populärkulturen, vilket uppsatsen inte finner ett svar till varför.
