"A" is aesthetic

“Brokeback Mountain” has aspects that make it unique as a mainstream release in terms of subject matter, but that’s not the main reason to see it. The primary recommendation here is that it is a love story that is gripping, intelligent and has a lot of insight about what people will and won’t give up for what means most to them. It’s also, for those who appreciate the aesthetic here, very sexy.

According to Verve Music Group, the atmosphere of the top-notch Brokeback Mountain  soundtrack "is marked by a down-home blend of folk, bluegrass, and country sounds."

Ennis was being dishonest when he tried to pull the wool over Alma's eyes by telling her that Jack was a fishing buddy.

Diana Ossana:  "When Marit [Allen] showed me photographs of Heath and Jake in wardrobe, they looked so real, so much like the characters we had envisioned, that I had to go outside and compose myself."

"H" is heartland

"Brokeback Mountain's  future in the heartland will offer a classic test of whether what the movie business considers its best work will be embraced by audiences whose values may be more conservative than Hollywood’s."
