I once watched BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN by Ang Lee at the age of 14 when I started to fall in love with movies and pretended to have understood everything in a movie, such as BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN.Therefore, it fade away from my memory very soon.
Three years later, After watching WO HU CANG LONG by Ang Lee, I "reviewed" this wonderful movie this evening and kept running the details over and over in my head when it finished. As far as I am concerned, it is the best homosexuality movie that I have ever seen.
The Brokeback Mountain makes a fine scene in Ang Lee's camera. In the mountain, Ennis and Jack found it impossible to refuse the love between two men. Obviously, Jack loved Ennis too much, just as what he said, "I want to know how to quit you." He devoted himself to this love. However, due to Ennis' father and childhood, he wanna live a "normal" life while loving Jack. Here the tragedy comes. "In the twenty years" they couldn't live together and their family got really a mess.
It's really a remarkable, limpid and moving film. The feeling lingers and the images come back. Everyone is moved at the sight of the two shirts holding each other, which are just like the former Jack and Ennis. A question is frequently asked: How did Jack die? I think he died just because of an accident, for his wife looked sad when answering that heartbreaking call. The picture in Ennis' mind is just the result of his father and his unfortunate childhood.
"I swear, Jack..."
