Truly Gay tragic love story

Rating: 8/10 (7 May 2006)

Worthy of a Shakespearean tragedy. I'm in my mid 50's. (I'm using my partner's ID. He's 29.) But I could relate to this movie from my own time period & experiences. Yes - It made me cry. To all you young men out there, take heart. This type of tragedy does not have to enter your life. Even if you are a cowboy, or someone in an isolated rural community. I'm hoping that since it's on DVD now that those gay young men in similar circumstances (i.e. in small rural towns or isolated areas) will be able to see this excellent film, and glean from it the possibility and hope of a good life as a gay man. Thoughts on film: Jack is a truly gay man trapped in a straight world. Ennis is "bisexual." They have trouble accepting their relationship, especially Ennis. If only everyone could live happily ever-after.
