I would've voted for Crash. Because it was a better movie.
Brokeback was great. In any other year, it probably should've won. Or Capote. Or Transamerica. Or others. This was a really decent (gasp) year for Hollywood.
Just because it was a movie about gay characters doesn't mean it was the best. Just because it didn't win doesn't mean the voters were bowing to cultural pressure from Middle America.
A lot of people, while moved by many of the films this year, thought Crash was better. Including me.
