@viral.ivoryThe reason Heath Ledger turned down presenting at the 2007 Oscars is what I keep thinking about. The script included a joke about the romance between his and Jake Gyllenhaal's characters in Brokeback Mountain (2005), and that was the sticking point. "It's not a joke to me. I don't want to make any jokes about it," he said. Then he added, plain as anything: "No. This is about love." #HeathLedger

The image focuses on two men wearing cowboy hats. One man, with his eyes closed, is being embraced from behind by the other man, who rests his head on his shoulder. The mood is intimate and tender, with a cinematic aesthetic. The contrast between the black and tan cowboy hats is notable, as is the textured green jacket worn by the man in front.
