Love is a force of nature.
From Academy Award-winning director Ang Lee, comes an epic American love story, Brokeback Mountain; the winner of the Golden Lion Award for Best Picture at the 2005 Venice Film Festival, winner of four Golden Globes and winner of three Oscars (Best Director for Ang Lee, Best Score for Gustavo Santaolalla and Best Adapted Screenplay for Diana Ossana & Larry McMutry)!
The film is based on the short story by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Proulx, adapted by Diana Ossana and the great Larry McMurtry (scribe and author of The Last Picture Show).
Set against the sweeping vistas of Wyoming and Texas, the film tells the story of two young men - a ranch-hand and a rodeo cowboy - who meet in the summer of 1963 and unexpectedly forge a lifelong connection; one whose complications, joys and tragedies provide a testament to the endurance and power of love.

My advice to anyone, male or female, straight or gay, would be to see this film asap if you havn't already done so. The sheer escapism of the way of life depicted is worth it alone, and no product placement, logos or jarring script to detract from the experience. Obviously the homosexuality is challenging for some, but hey, that is your problem;) The moment when the late Heath Ledger's character breaks down in the shed, is one of despair, powerlessness and frustration that anyone who's been in love can relate to.
good chick lit :D

such a good film, with incredibly powerful yet subtle soundtrack to accompany it. certainly worth £6, although many of my heterosexual male friends would most certainly disagree with me !
