Excellent film-making and acting

Rating: 10/10 (19 December 2005)

I saw this movie two days ago and the story just sinks deeper and deeper into my consciousness. This is a very outstanding achievement in storytelling, acting and directing. I am now beginning to cry for Ennis, Jack, and their respective families. I cry for the the ignorant who will not allow natural true love to exist. I cry for the innocent who are unable to change their fate. I cry for the loneliness of the many Enniss' of the world who are unable to live their god given lives. I cry for the many men and women who have died for being something other than heterosexual.
The Academy voters will give strong consideration to this great film. I am in awe of the magnificence landscapes and scenery. I felt as if I was on Brokeback Mountain. Mr. Ang's superb direction was extremely focused. The acting by all involved was especially pleasing. Mr. ledger and Mr. Gyllanhall should definitely receive Oscars for their performances. Ms. Williams was also exceptional.
