A Beautiful Love Story

Rating: 10/10 (22 May 2008)

This is one of the most romantic and beautiful movies I have ever seen. The scene in the tent when they first have sex is so sexy and intense. They are two men out in the wilderness, doing what men are supposed to do, taking care of the sheeps, drinking and talking and sleeping under the clear night sky...next thing they are having sex in the tent. Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhal are both so handsome and good looking, both brilliant actors, performance - outstanding.
This movie is like Romeo and Juliet of the homosexualism. A love so pure and true made impossible by the prejudice and narrow-mindedness of the people. The whole tragedy of the characters is that they are bound to live in times that are not mature enough to accept the different, and reject them in fear of the unknown.
They both realize the time and space they live in, there is nothing pretentious or pompous about the way they behave, nothing fancy or phony, the only reason they follow is the love to each other and the only real time is the one spend together. How come something so beautiful and pure, be wrong.
I recommend this movie to anyone who enjoys true love stories and likes a good moral lesson on human nature. All I can say in our defence is that I hope we have learned and we won't repeat the same mistakes again.
