A Very moving picture

Rating: 10/10 (17 January 2006)

I recently saw Brokeback Mountain. It's been a few days since I saw it and it is still affecting me. I thought it was a beautiful love story. Every scene was fraught with such intense emotion. I can't begin to tell anyone how moved I am by the experience. Heath and Jakes characters were so real it was very easy to sympathize with both of their personalities. It was amazing to me that my own demeanor during the movie mirrored what was taking place on film. I was not truly at ease during the scenes when they were not together. I thought it was amazing that the movie could make me feel that and capture that ache. It was a beautiful movie all the way around. The way they handled the wives roles was dead on. As a woman I can relate to both reactions of the women. This is definitely a movie to have in your classics library.
