I'm saying that it's a much hotter property in terms of having been a fairly recent hit/critical & award darling movie with two major movie stars, and a musical about a repressed gay romance is much more note-worthy for discussion and headlines than the Bridges of Madison County, and that there is of course a large gay contingent in the Broadway audience. On many levels it would have been more exciting and note-worthy. And I don't say it just randomly, as I've already said, the specifics of BRIDGES makes me think of BROKEBACK and so that's how it came up.
