OK, recently i bought the DVD of Brokeback mountain because i was curious about this whole dumb "gay cowboy thing" (of course i am a bi+ ) so i wanted to see this film because i would be able to relate to a romantic film about two people of the same gender.
being honest i was expecting it to be one of them stereotypical gay movies where both actors are camp, clean and lip gloss freaks (not dissing because i am all of these - as you can see on my my space) anyway, it was lovely to see this film prove me wrong about gay people and gay relationships. I have been in many relationships with the same gender (god i sound like a whore, but i ain't really) but it is nice to see a same-sex relationship in another body (meaning i am watching other peoples relationship through some one else) because where i live, in Perth, there is a really small gay community, i am friends with 2 gay male couples and 1 lesbian couple and i barely see them that much so i don't really see a gay relationship take place that much in front of me so it is hard to see what the big fuss is about.
I am not making sense and i think i may have gone of topic, so lets go back to the point. Brokeback mountain effected me more than any other film i have watched, for example, titanic had a very sad ending, i cried... but after 2 hours of the film i have gotten over it and went onto something else. Brokeback mountain has really effected me and got me thinking about the whole movie through and through for a few days now and the death of jack was too sudden, unlike the titanic jack.
The film confused me also in some scenes with the Ennis meeting the parents etc so i do not have great understanding of the whole film yet. No need to answer my questions because there ain't any questions to be answered due to the fact that i have already made a thread about my questions.
I wish everyone saw this movie, in fact homophobic or open minded i would like to show the world this film, to let other people understand that gay couples are just the same as everyone else and we aren't the stereotypical people others seam to make us out as.
A while back I wanted to go see this film at the cinema but my friends (who are open minded and are girls) thought that i would get... how shall i put it... "Hot" because I myself am a bisexual/gay (i'm bisexual but lean more for guys than girls) guy. What made me felt like a disgusting person, i also felt as if gay people would get more sprung to a gay movie than a straight person go to see a straight movie... For the record i watched this as if it was a straight movie because i didn't think of the guys as a gay couple, instead i thought as them as a real couple.
I am sorry i wrote a lot and it is most likely not making sense at all but to sum it all up, This film is effective, loving, emotional and should be broadcast on the main TV channels 4 or 5 times so everyone watches and never misses it.
