the gay cowboy movie

brokeback mountain is not just a gay cowboy movie. i think that it is one of those movies that everyone should see because it makes you think and not many movies do that these days.

the movie is first and foremost a love story about two cowboys in the 60s but it is also this amazing commentary on the nature of love and wether or not all the trials and tribulations in relationships are worth it when you really love someone straight or gay, because really both of the situations are presented in the movie.

this is not a movie that would have been made ten or even five years ago but i think that it just proves that our society is ready and willing to think again about what they believe in...i even heard that filming this movie changed some of the views of the actors themselves which is fantastic. the effect of the changes that are taking place all over the world are reflected in the fact that this movie was made and that people are going to see it.

it is a piece of beautiful film making both cinematically and socially and it should and hopefully will be shown and talked about for a long time to come
