In this excellent, well done, and critically acclaimed movie, two cowboys meet and fall awkwardly yet deeply in love with one another, in a story that bends your mind, tugs at your heart yet breaks it at the same time.
In the summer of 1963 in Wyoming, two cowboys, Ennis and Jack, meet. Ennis Del Mar is a hardworking man engaged to marry his fiancée, Alma and Jack Twist is a rodeo cowboy living in Texas. The two work together that summer, herding sheep in brokeback mountain. The two form a friendship which becomes much more when they fall in love. When the summer ends, the two go their separate ways.
As time goes by, Ennis marries Alma and have two daughters while Jack marries Lureen Newsome, daughter of a wealthy tractor owner, and have a son, Bobby. Ennis and Jack meet four years later, in 1967. When they meet, they hug and Ennis pulls Jack aside to kiss him which Alma witnesses and becomes heartbroken.
During Jack's visit, the two go up to fish at Brokeback Mountain, where Jack tells Ennis how much he cares for him. Jack then tells Ennis that he wants to be with him always and make a commitment, to leave their wives, live together with their own ranch, and have a wonderful life. However, Ennis shows no emotion or commitment to Jack's dream. Although Jack's hurt by Ennis' words, the two decide to meet every four years and continue their relationship in secret.
As time goes by, Alma becomes fed up with Ennis' lack of supporting the kids even though she still harbors heartbreak from discovering her husband's secret life. The two divorce in '75 and Jack comes after wards thinking that Ennis is finally ready for a commitment. He is met with heartbreak when Ennis says that he isn't and the divorce wasn't over wanting to be with Jack. Jack leaves saying he'll come by next month and while driving away, brings emotional sobs for he pines for Ennis. Instead of heading back to Texas, Jack drives to Mexico where he picks up a male prostitute.
Time continues to go by and even though Jack still pines for Ennis he begins a relationship with Randall Malone. Ennis is also confronted by Alma about his love affair with Jack which results in an argument and gets him into a fight later on.

'Brokeback Mountain' is an emotional, heart wrenching, and well done movie. This movie will truly grasp the concept of love and bend your mind about relationships between different people. The movie not only tugs at your heart for its emotional performances but for those that become emotional hurt. Yet the ending will sadden you yet break your heart at the same time.

I hope to anyone that sees this movie will enjoy it and become aware of how deep love is and will realize what they truly want in life. A movie worth seeing!
