One of the best produced in a very long time

Rating: 10/10 (10 February 2006)

While Brokeback Mountain is a very controversial film (when it first came to Charlotte, it was only at one theater...soon it was at three...now it is showing at all the theaters in this area), it is truly one of the best I've seen in quite some time. The usual run of movies doesn't keep my interest, I leave the theater shaking my head and wondering why I came, or I just think about going and decide it isn't worth my time. This was a WONDERFUL movie...insightful, moving...truly a work of art! I think it portrays real human beings with real emotions...trying very hard to understand those emotions and come to terms with them. If, for just a few minutes, those who have a problem with the homosexual content, could forget that part...just see the raw, human emotions being portrayed...and see the depth of love ...well, I think they just might realize that it is truly a great film!
