http://www.mirror.co.uk/tm_objectid=16550380%26method=full%26siteid=94762%26headline=brokeback%2dmountain-name_page.html



This reviewer tries to draw the reader in by firstly dealing greatly with the celebrity status of the two main characters in the film ‘Brokeback Mountain’, before then going on to discuss the main point of the film, the controversy over gays. Not only does it start out with the mentioning of a celebrity, but it ends with one too. It isn’t that long a review, but it does give the reader a brief summary of the film, so they know what to expect and mentions that “it's already an Oscar favourite” By mentioning this the film is sure to get viewers, who choose their choice of viewings on the bases of Oscar and such like award ceremonies judgment. The reviewer does however have a good opinion of the film, describing it as, “an incredibly touching and genuinely moving film about yearning, unrequited love and growing old alone.” This review is clearly written for a newspaper meant for those who are into highly popular topics, such as well-known award shows and A-list celebrities.
