Brokeback Mountain (2005)

Memorable, crazy movie

Good idea lost in the noise

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

I'm writing this as I cry after that climax. It's a beautiful movie paced well set upon beautiful locations and lonely people. Thank you ang lee.

I am willing to be an unabashed fan of this movie. It is great.Of all the great love stories that I have seen in movies and in plays, I can't think of a story that has spoken to me more intensely than Brokeback. Ever since rewatching it a few days ago, I have been playing back the scene when Jack says "Sometimes I miss you so much that I can hardly stand it" over and over again. It's just that good.Tragic. Tender. Terrifyingly beautiful. From the natural beauty of Wyoming to its rural poverty, the American West has never seemed more full of brutality or love.One of the great love stories of our time, Brokeback should be relevant for far more than the "gay cowboy" closet.(I have seen this several times, most recently on June 22, 2017)

An important and original romance that really and finally portrays the homosexual romance as two humans falling in love and never plays it for clichés.The movie occasionally drags, but in the end it is a powerful film featuring excellent acting and excellent writing. It is griping and also quite devastating. The drama is intense, and the emotions are raw.If you have the patience to sit through a slow-moving romance and you lack the vanity to be put off by explicit cowboy on cowboy relations, you'll greatly appreciate the light at the end of Brokeback Mountain, a work of art that's more than just a movie.A superb romantic drama featuring solid performances, especially from Ledger, and excellent direction from Lee. The complexity of the relationships between various characters, including both physical and emotional, is one of the movie's strengths and also featuring some beautiful and fitting music. ---Yidioo

** SPOILERS **Let me just first point out that I only saw this movie about a month ago. Compared to all the other types of movies across all genres that I've seen, this in my opinion changed my life. It is the saddest movie I've ever seen (even sadder than Marley and Me and the Notebook). Every time I think of this movie which is 3/4 of the day for most days, it instantly puts me into a sad mood, and whenever I watch it, it makes me cry for more 20 minutes afterwards. I have never seen more heartbreak in a movie than any other movie ever.Secondly, half of the reason this movie gets me so emotional is the fact that for more than 20 years these two lovers have to keep their relationship a secret otherwise if anyone knew they both most likely be dead, because of the time this movie is set (between 1963 and the early to mid 80's), and after one of them dies, the other has to keep his sadness and heartbreak kept inside of him for the rest of his life, also the one that dies tries his hardest to try and create a life the two, he tries over and over again to convince the other to pack up and leave with him. The other half is obviously because one of them dies because of who they love. Throughout the years they had been together, you can see clearly the desperate and emotional bond between these two. It rips you apart when one of them dies. It will leave you crying and feeling sad.Lastly if you plan to watch this movie, I highly recommend a box a tissues cause you will cry, I guarantee you will.
