Brokeback Mountain
So the Jester and I went to the 1pm matinee of "Brokeback Mountain" this afternoon.
The theater was packed. Average age was probably in the mid-50s. Anyway...
If you can go see this movie...do it. I was deeply and profoundly moved. I love going to movies, but rarely am I pulled in. It was an intense cathartic experience.
The movie was simple, yet beautiful...which is how I think of Western Wyoming, as well as the Black Hills. I can see why Ang Lee is getting every directing award. He managed to describe so many emotions: love, pain, hate, despair, lonliness, understanding, denial, kindness...the list goes on.
Anyway...I'm rambling. I love "Brokeback Mountain".
Sidenote: Who was your favorite character in the movie? Mine was Mrs. Twist...Jack's mother.
Sidenote II: That was very cheesy of me to end in such a manner.
