DVD Synopsis

Ang Lee's adaptation of E. Annie Proulx's story Brokeback Mountain stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger as young cowboys named Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar. Each of them is hired to corral sheep on the title location and they soon bond very closely. Their platonic relationship explodes into a physical one, but eventually the two are separated when their job comes to an end. Although the two follow different life paths -- one becoming a father of two and the other marrying into a successful business -- they have a reunion years later. Each is affected profoundly by the rekindling of their old feelings for each other. Those feelings lead each to consider what continuing their hidden relationship would cost them. The screenplay was written by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

Good story but if your not into gay love don't watch it. Yet, the story is more about love in general and the fears of not being able to be open about it.

Beautifully filmed love story and excellent acting, especially by the late Heath Ledger. Michelle Williams and Anne Hathaway are outstanding in supporting roles. And Jake G. is charming yet sad. I had to watch this alone because the males in my household were not comfortable with this material, but it was not (in my opinion) a film that is overtly sexual in any way. It was about love and pain. Excellent story.
