"We were talking about the kissing in the movie just recently. Clearly, it's pretty challenging material, but Ang said two men herding sheep was far more sexual than two men having sex on screen"
- Jake Gyllenhaal

It likewise highlights the complexity and subjectivity of sexuality and how it can be depicted on screen. Overall, this quote offers a thought-provoking viewpoint on the representation of intimacy and sexuality in film.
