Heath Ledger on playing Ennis del Mar:  “It was really tough.  I wasn’t open to it in a ‘yoo-hoo, let’s go for it’ kind of way.  I don’t think Jake was either, but we were really open to telling this story.”

Taiwanese director Ang Lee has made Time magazine's list of the 100 most influential people who are shaping the world. The acclaimed film-maker, who recently won a Best Director Academy Award for Brokeback Mountain, was included on the list because his phenomenally successful work has crossed cultural lines. Actress Zhang Ziyi, who starred in Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon says, "He creates characters that draw in an audience no matter what language they speak. His insight into the human heart crosses all boundaries. I know he is also making a huge influence in the lives of younger filmmakers and actors."

Ennis had aptitude for horse-riding and elk-shooting and Jack-loving, in his own way.

“They shook hands in the choky little trailer office in front of a table littered with scribbled papers, a Bakelite ashtray brimming with stubs.”  [story]

Jack and Ennis' summer on Brokeback was the be-all, end-all experience of their lives.
