The story of a very beautiful and passionate yet sad relationship

Rating: 9/10 (23 March 2017)

I watched Brokback Mountain two days ago, 11 years after it was released, and I was deeply touched by it. Such a strong film. I cannot clearly tell why but I simply cannot get it out of my head, being haunted by scenes from the film during the day. I've been feeling absolutely melancholic for two days now. Both Ledger and Gyllenhaal acted so well at such young ages, the look in their eyes, the passion, the melancholy of impossibility, Ennis's innocence and shyness, their determination to carry on... It was all so beautiful. I suppose Ledger not being alive today makes it harder for me. Although I'd be sure that he would not read it, I could still write to him about the way his character made me feel.
