Brokeback Mountain

So everyone knows this film is about some gay cowboys. It's interesting to me that they make a point out of showing how manly one of the guys involved are, and really to me the central idea you get coming out of this movie is that these guys could have had a decent life if they didn't accept the fact that being gay was "wrong". Fellas, if this ever happens to you move the hell out of hicksville and make a home with the person you love, although I understand that's easier said then done. 

As a film the acting was superb, the direction solid and the landscapes a startling contrast to the plain or even ugly homes that people live in. I can see why someone would rather be out in the forests and praries instead of cooped up in their ugly little houses. 

A very good film, I'd consider it an A
