Where next?

Wow!
Where do I go from here after seeing this film?
Never has a piece of art moved me to such levels of emotion and contemplation.
As there are just no adequate words to describe the intense gut feelings of a love like that of these two characters, I feel that on an emotional level I cannot do my own feelings justice by trying to explain them in words.
I hear and respect the intellectual comments about the film making as a process, but I also feel that people need to understand the impact of this film on our society - especially the American society.
One has to consider and appreciate how this film is viewed for so many of us gay Americans. One should also allow themselves to comprehend the message of what forms a true and pure human connection can take.
This is what Brokeback Mountain is about.
Suffice it to say that I had to share the impact I felt with this film in some forum. It's that important and special.
Everyone should encourage his or her family and friends to see the film.
I believe it is going to be an important milestone in film and culture in this century.
