Your Favorite Movie Might Have Been Banned In These Countries

Brokeback Mountain

It’s hard to believe today, but Brokeback Mountain was both a controversial and groundbreaking movie at the time of its release in 2005. It tells the story of Ennis and Jack – two male lovers who kept their romantic relationship a secret for more than 20 years.

There were several cinemas in Utah, USA, that banned the film upon its initial release. Overseas, Brokeback Mountain was also banned in Malaysia since it ‘wouldn’t be right for our local audiences.’
