'Brokeback' Kiss Voted 2nd Sexiest Film Scene Ever (And, Annie Proulx Gives Hollywood a Lashing)

LoveFilm.com (think Netflix for Brits) surveyed 120,000 of its members on the sexiest film scenes in history:

#1: The super fun and steamy movie 'Secretary' starring James Spader and Maggie Gyllenhaal.
(Watch the trailer for 'Secretary')

 


#2: Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger in 'Brokeback Mountain.

Seems as if "sexy" runs in the Gyllenhaal family.

Annie Proulx Writes About the Big 'Crash' at the Academy Awards
Proulx doesn't hold back any punches in this column.



"We should have known conservative heffalump academy voters would have rather different ideas of what was stirring contemporary culture. Roughly 6,000 film industry voters, most in the Los Angeles area, many living cloistered lives behind wrought-iron gates or in deluxe rest-homes, out of touch not only with the shifting larger culture and the yeasty ferment that is America these days, but also out of touch with their own segregated city, decide which films are good. And rumour has it that Lions Gate inundated the academy voters with DVD copies of Trash - excuse me - Crash a few weeks before the ballot deadline. Next year we can look to the awards for controversial themes on the punishment of adulterers with a branding iron in the shape of the letter A, runaway slaves, and the debate over free silver."

You go, girl!
