Why are you surprised? Various lobbies in the United States (including the LGBT lobby) has been using the Hollywood movies as a propaganda tool to spread their ideology to the non-Americans. Why do you think propaganda movies such as the Brokeback Mountain and Milk were showered with awards and accolades, at the same time great movies such as Les Misérables were ignored?
Easily disproven bullshit trolling, as those movies weren't in the same awards year to be able to compete with each other. LM grossed more in the US than Brokeback & Milk, COMBINED. LM destroyed Milk in major US awards count, and only won 1 less major US award than Brokeback.
