Brokeback Mountain (2005)

Cast: Heath Ledger (Ennis Del Mar), Jake Gyllenhaal (Jack Twist), Michelle Williams (Alma Del Mar)
For complete cast list, see IMDb's Brokeback Mountain page.

Brokeback Mountain wasn't just a beautiful love story, it was cinematically beautiful, as well. Everyone knows about this movie as the "gay cowboy movie," but I think people need to look at it as a love story - pure and simple. I'm very happy that a movie that involves a gay love story is able to be in the top 10. For any movie to be at number 8 in the box office, when it's playing in only 483 movie theaters when number 9 (Rumor has It...) is in 2766 theaters and number 10 (The Family Stone) is in 2085 theaters. To me, that says a lot about the movie. I hope it continues to do well when it reaches wide release and that it gets a lot of the awards it is nominated for at the Golden Globe awards!

Grade: A
