A place for the mind-numbing thoughts that run through my head

Bend it like Brokeback


What, they couldn't think of a punnier title and tag line??

Title: Guys And Balls

Synopsis: Ecki is a young man who works in a bakery in Dortmund and plays soccer on his local team. Already under pressure for playing badly, his homophobic team-members find out that he is gay and throw him off the team. With the help of his sister and a cranky former soccer star, he tries to form an all-gay football team to challenge his old team in a grudge match.

Seriously?? I really liked Brokeback Mountain, i thought it was a poignant and beautiful love story--but is this supposed to be?

What was the pitch? "Think Brokeback Mountain meets Benchwarmers!"

Eeep!
