Brokeback moutain is easily the best movie I have seen this year. (sorry Harry potter, you will be the second best in my heart now...)
I don't want to spoil the fun for anyone who wants to see the movie later. So I will just briefly mention the story without going into great detail. It's about two cowboys attending sheeps during one summer as their job. Up on the Brokeback mountain, two strangers opened themselves up to each other and however unwilling to admit it, they fell in love to each other. At the end of the summer, they had no choice but to go their separate way to their own lives. It's not until some years later, they found each other again and realized what they had that one summer was amazing bond. Back then homosexuality was even less accepted, so they had to suppress their feelings toward each other and can only met once in a while.
Even so many days after I saw the movie, their ever so touching feeling toward each other still resonates within me. My heart still aches when I try to imagine how painful it must be for anyone (gay or not) not being able to be around someone you love. The beautiful scenes were actually shot in Calgary , here in Canada. The magnificent mountains and sky only make one's problem feel so small yet so lonesome that one seeks for comanionship and understaning.
This movie is so great. Ann Lee did a great job directing it.(oh and did I mention both of them are very cute too?) I highly recommend watching it. The subtitle is well phrased:
Love is a force of nature.
