Prison Officer in Trouble for Showing 'Brokeback' -- Sex 'Too Explicit'

Categorize as: Get a Grip.

A prison officer in Massachusetts is being disciplined for showing 'Brokeback Mountain' to inmates.

A spokeswoman for the prison said, "I want to make it clear, it wasn't the subject matter -- it was the graphic nature of the sexually explicit scenes."



To which I say: Yeah, right. There is very little in the way of sexually explicit material in 'Brokeback Mountain.' (The prison's censor obviously hasn't seen the movie.)
