Brokeback Mountain

Looks like director Ang Lee has regained his footing since The Hulk. The oldest film festival in the world is underway, and already the buzz over his film Brokeback Mountain has eclipsed all others at the Venice International Film Festival, which runs through this week. Brokeback Mountain, starring Heath Ledger (+69%) and Jake Gyllenhaal (+99%), is being described as the first homosexual cowboy movie. Well, at least, the first overtly gay film about guys who hang out together wearing chaps. Searches on the hotly anticipated flick are up 192% over the last week, and we've seen a corresponding spike in "brokeback mountain trailer," up 356%. Two-thirds of Brokeback searches are from males intrigued by the cowboy tale, which is based on a story by E. Annie Proulx.

The movie isn't hitting screens until December 9, but we were curious to see how searches compared with those about two other good ol' boys, namely the Dukes of Hazzard. Yeah, sure, completely different movies, and Johnny Knoxville and Seann William Scott play brothers, not lovers. Still, we wanted to see a head-to-head comparison, at least for the past week:

• Folks most interested in Dukes: teen boys
• Folks most interested in Brokeback: guys 35-44 years old
• Which actor is more searched on, Heath or Johnny?: Johnny, 1.7 times more
• Most searches, Jake or Sean?: Jake, almost 5 times more
• Which director gets double the searches of the other?: Lee
• Most peculiar must-know search query: "does jake gyllenhaal shave his chest"
