One of the best movies of the year

Rating: 10/10 (23 September 2005)

I saw BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN at the Venice Film Festival. I saw it twice. The first time was actually the world premiere and Anne Hathaway, Ang Lee, Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger were there in the screening room too. It was very special and emotional watch such a wonderful, moving and powerful movie and had the chance to show all your gratitude to its makers. The response of the audience at the end of the screening was really warm and sincere. Anne Hathaway was crying herself. The movie is really really a good piece of cinema. I can watch now the trailer and a lot of emotions come back to my memories. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal did a good job but the real great material was from the female supporting cast, Michelle Williams, Anne Hathaway and Linda Cardellini. Especially Michelle Williams, she was really really extraordinary. Anne Hathaway was exceptional too, even if her role is less emotional than Williams'. She gave the best at her last scene at the phone, however. The screenplay and the direction are so wonderful just because they seem so pure and sincere. The story of a really powerful and painful love. The sensational score by Gustavo Santaolalla is really a big part of the movie's soul. When the screen faded to black and the wonderful score filled the screening room, my God, it was really intense moment. I won't never forget it. Thanks again, to all the people involved in the movie. THANK YOU
