Beautiful but still tragic

Rating: 8/10 (18 July 2006)

Brokeback mountain is wonderful as a piece of art. The landscapes which shape the film at the start are not only beautiful, but also exiting.
As a political creation it also strikes me that Ang Lee does not want to lift the unhappy homosexual couple as the most important part. The essential message is instead how the prejudices effects everybody, and makes, mainly, the families lives unhappy too.
Of course also great acting by the mumbling Heath Ledger and his acting partner Jack Gyllenhall. I'm looking forward to see Ledger in his future role as Bob Dylan in the film about the artist.
My only question at the end is: What did Ang Lee think when he directed "The Hulk"?
