Yeah, sure… You can watch Maria boss those little Aryan whipper-snappers around the hills of Austria squawling about goatherds and raindrops on roses on Thanksgiving night, but really… Aside from everything Eleanor Parker wears, is there really any reason you need to watch The Sound of Music again?
This Thanksgiving, why don’t you really get severe and rustle your turkey-stuffed family unit into the den and tune into Logo at 10pm ET. Your favorite big gay TV channel is going to be airing the landmark, ground-breaking, robbed-of-Best-Picture amazingness that is Brokeback Mountain. And face it… It’s totally the bets gay film ever made, and truly one of the most heart-shattering love stories ever.
Think you’re all jaded now that a few years have passed and you can’t be done in by Brokeback‘s eloquent beauty and gut-punching love story? Good luck, Cowboy. Watch this mashup below and tell me you’re not bawling by the first chorus.
And speaking of Xtina (see the above clip) after sobbing yourself silly on Thursday night, haul your gay butt out to the multiplex to see Burlesque this weekend. It’s a fluffy romp and Cher and Christina both pretty much kick ass.
Gay cowboys and singing showgirls… Now THAT’S how you solve a problem like Maria.
Yee. Haw.
