One of the greatest love stories in film history

Rating: 10/10 (31 January 2006)

I've been looking forward to see this movie since last September when it was first premiere at Venice Film Festival in my country and I wanted so bad to go watching at least one screening but I didn't manage, so I read Anne Proulx's book which increased even more my interest.
And eventually last weekend it was released in Italy and I went see on Saturday early matinée show and then again on Sunday with a couple of close friends and on Tuesday with my dearest best friend but since the very first screening my mind, my soul and all of my senses I guess had been completely blown away by one of the most real, intense, sincere, yearning, sweetest and deepest love story ever seen and told on the big screen. In the last five days I've kept thinking about BBM day and night, at work, at home, every time everywhere cause I was melted down by their amazing performances, I cannot shake and get out of my head Ennis and Jack's faces, the way they hugged, they way they embraced each other the first time in the tent, how they couldn't avoid to kiss and touch their faces so passionately when they re-met after 4 years, how they talked and chatted and joked when they had the chance to meet up, how tender and true their love was and sad and desperate ended to be.
I'd like to personally thank and hug Ang, Heath and Jake and all the others who made possible such a stunning and breathtaking masterpiece!
