You didn't say if you saw it or not so I won't spoil the ending.
The story is basic and has been done many times before. Two people fall in love but circumstances prevent them from being together to fulfill that love.
When I saw the movie, there was a whole audience of elderly people. I think the movie means more to those who have lived long enough to regret some of the decisions they made in their lives with respect to relationships and love. There are many of us out there who have given up much in order to conform to what society sees as "right".
The homosexual nature of the film was just a different way to get the story across.

It's a love story about 2 cow"boys". Who keep coming back to the mountain where they first met and were intimate. They were sheep herders.
They lived separate lives with their own wives and children. But always met up once a year to go fishing and and to be intimate with each other. At the very end Heath Ledgers lover was murdered by men who knew it was wrong to be with a man. So yes it was in the end a romantic tragedy.

It definitly a romantic tragedy, I think everyone gets caught up in the fact that there are two guys but just think about two people who are truly in love and forced to live a life of secrecy because society wouldn't accept them. Everyday struggling because the one person who could make your life whole is the one person you can't really have( at least not the way you need to). It is a tradgedy that by the time the other guy seems to realize that maybe it could have happened it was too late.

I'd hate to think that homosexual romance is all about violence, sex, lies and infidelity (not only we're they unfaithful to their wives, but one was unfaithful to the other). I'd like to think it's more elevated than that. Brokeback Mountain is long and ponderous and tragic at the end. I'd say it's more a tragedy in the classic sense. It was seriously overrated as a movie, although the cinematography is beautiful and you get to see Heath Ledger naked (the most redeeming feature of the movie).

It is a love story, it is a drama, and it is a social protest for the discrimination and intolerance that there exists against the homosexuality in the times of the movie, and that exists yet in the world.

Sometimes when you try to pull a story from a book it seems to long and over drawn. This is a classic example. The book was a much better read.

Romantic tragedy... I think so. I found it rather boring and depressing. These two dudes had to live a lie and sneak around in order to be together.

So, secret. observe: a large number of human beings opt to declare, "Oh, Edward's ideal and he has no faults; it makes him the appropriate character and hence makes him flat and 2d and . . . and so on." If he's so surprising why do human beings then opt to ***** approximately him being abusive?! Ever think of of it like that? I stand impartial on the concern. I hate being one-sided. although, i actually desire this does not impact the writers' of the next day or different youngster-wannabees. i want real lit. the type it is powerful, solid, solid youngster lit. LOL. no longer that crap. you comprehend, you ought to seek for Lynsay Sands, she writes solid vamp/romance novels! and that they are additionally hilarious! lol. i do no longer particularly look after Meyer. yet all i will end to is that the secret from the two factors drew them at the same time, yet that wasn't reason to fall for another. i think of, if I have been her, i does in comparison to how he took continuously to speak to her and then he became SO dang controlling! Ugh. --MP

That's a good damned question...I thought the movie was ordinary and all the hype about it was unfounded. Of course, because homosexuality is its theme, you knew it was gonna be blown up...
