A Truly Beautiful Love Story

Rating: 10/10 (10 June 2009)

This movie has such a unique and beautiful storyline. It has touched the hearts of the millions of people who have seen it. I did not know exactly what to expect going into this movie, except for the cliché stereotype of Brokeback Mountain. After watching it I was deeply moved by the epitome of what this movie really is: a true love story, regardless of gender.
The direction of Ang Lee is simply spectacular. There is the scope of the mountain scenes, the gentle conversation between the main characters, and that all builds throughout the twenty years in which this movie takes place. It truly tells a story that some can relate to, while others can certainly see the message it portrays.
If you go into this movie with an open mind, you will walk out of it with a greater understanding of what can happen with love in any stretch of the imagination. I highly recommend it, for the directing, acting, the musical score, and the message. 10 out of 10.
