Brokeback Mountain
Story: Two young cowboys meet up at this ranch on brokeback mountain and “hitch up”. the first time they do, the first one tells the other in the morning, “I’m not queer” to which the other replies, “Neither am I”. Its an emotional story of the feelings these guys have for each other, but go ahead and get married anyways. The first time they meet up after that for a re-union has them making out in the garage like teenagers. And after that, they go on fishing trips every 6 months where lets say that they don’t do much of fishing. The movie is at times, very emotional, repressed passion let out, wild and physical, but at the end of it, very tender. I found the unexpressed tenderness between these two men, very moving. Finally after 20 years, life catches up with one of them and the other is left wondering about chances not taken and “if only”s.
End: Touching and tender. Not too sad. Not too happy. Like life!
