Hi !
I saw Brokeback Mountain Wednesday, and I live in Lorient, in Bretagne (near to South England). It is a little town, nevertheless, the theatre was fully and people said that it was fantastic !
My brother works in Paris and theatres were as fully. So I'm not very surprised that BBM was the number one attended film of the week in Paris...
Tomorrow I will see BBM once more, with friends, and will buy the novel by Annie Proulx, in french first...
