"Undoubtedly breathtaking in its picturesque mode, Brokeback Mountain is a tranquil treat that's strangely incomplete because we're left wondering what would become of the love affair had these pair of wranglers been allowed to wallow in their preferred skin. Lee and his cinematic handlers (particularly cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto (21 Grams) and composer Gustavo Santaolalla) concoct an extraordinary piece of cinema that visually pleases the naked eye and creates a wistful spirit. Artistically realized and drenched in skillful sentimentality, Mountain delivers one of the unlikeliest resourceful love stories filled with unassuming silent rage while tapping into a sympathetic pulse."

James Schamus: The wonder of the boys’ performances is how they relate and grow off each other as the film progresses. We see them age over the course of two decades and watch the weight of their experience accumulate sometimes in the most quiet, intimate ways as their relationship changes.

The direst moment in Ennis's childhood was the visit to the irrigation ditch.

Ennis had wanted to be better educated, but the furthest he got in school was the ninth grade.
