Brokeback Mountain Screensaver
|
Brokeback Mountain Movie Story. From Award-winning filmmaker Ang Lee comes an American love story, based on the short story by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Proulx and adapted for the screen by the team of Pulitzer Prize-winning author Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana. Set against the landscape of Wyoming and Texas, the film tells the story of a ranch-hand and a rodeo cowboy in 1963. They unexpectedly forge a lifelong connection, one whose complications, joys and tragedies provide a testament to the power of love. Early one morning in Signal, Wyoming, Ennis del Mar (Ledger) and Jack Twist (Gyllenhaal) meet while lining up for employment with local rancher Joe Aguirre (Quaid). The world which Ennis and Jack have been born into is at once changing rapidly and yet scarcely evolving. Both young men seem certain of their set places in the heartland – obtaining steady work, marrying and raising a family – and yet hunger for something beyond what they can articulate. When Aguirre dispatches them to work as sheepherders up on the majestic Brokeback Mountain, they gravitate towards camaraderie and then a deeper love. Starring: Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Williams, Anne Hathaway and Linda Cardellini. |
