本周一，第17屆美國同志組織“反誹謗同性戀者聯(lián)盟”媒體頒獎典在曼哈頓時代廣場舉行，講述牛仔同性戀愛情故事的《斷背山》在此問鼎大獎。《斷背山》的同性戀內(nèi)容是該片入選并獲得反誹謗同性戀者聯(lián)盟“杰出電影獎”的主要原因。李安表示，這部電影對于促使人們改變同性戀的看法有很大作用，不管支持與否，人們在看完電影后會討論同性戀問題、慢慢接受它，這是潛移默化的。 |

representations of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community,"
the group said in a statement.
"To end our `Brokeback' journey here tonight is like coming home," Ang
Lee, the film's Oscar-winning director said in his acceptance speech.
"The fact is this: that 'Brokeback Mountain' has helped to change the
world. And it is such a privilege and honor to have joined you, and all
the people all over the world, who struggle for compassion and equality."
"Brokeback Mountain" won numerous awards in the run-up to the Academy Awards , and was
considered the front-runner for the best-picture Oscar, but it was "Crash"
that took home the big prize.
Other winners at the GLAAD awards included Newsweek for magazine
reporting; "The Oprah Winfrey Show" for an episode focused on gay people's
coming-out stories; USA Today
