Review of movie

Rating: 10/10 (29 January 2006)

I recently saw this movie for the second time and it was really good. The first time I went to see the movie I thought okay this is going to be a gay cowboy movie but after seeing it I realized it beyond that to a love story about two people who despite the odds and the challenges love each other. Jake's character Jack and Heath's character Ennis did an amazing job portraying their characters.
Jack's character with wanting to believe that he could be with Ennis and Ennis character being afraid of having a committed relationship and living with Jack. Even though Ennis didn't say a lot in the movie but what wasn't said really came through with his emotions and facial expressions. Seeing the movie a second time brought the movie more to life and I was able to pick up on things better than I did the first time around.
It definitely opened my eyes to all the issues surrounding same sex relationships and the struggles and the heartache during a time period where it wasn't expected and it wasn't something that was done or even talked about. I thought both Jake and Health did any amazing job and really made you believe that love through time can last despite everything. I definitely recommend this movie.
