Gay or Not Gay, Beautiful as it is

Rating: 10/10 (20 July 2006)

Some movies you can watched for one time and forget all about it. Yet some will live deeply into your mind for years to come. This is the one that you will always remember. The lovers forbidden love fragile yet strong. Sad yet warm. Gay or not gay is no longer a question here. Even if the gender is "Corrected", it still is the most remarkable way of translating a beautiful romance. It is unfair to call it "Gay Cowboy Movie" or some sort of shallow titles. In weird ways, the lover that you never get is the lover you love the most. Such pure love is beyond age, gender, race, nationality and time. Ang Lee, as a Taiwanese director, to direct a movie with so much complex background and timeframe, is magnificent. No wonder Oscar validate the movie as well as the director. The music and the story is still in my mind, even now. I was not offensed by the gay scene but was deeply moved by the true love. Wonderful movie.
