So many things still remind me of Brokeback Mountain!
ptannen:
After all these months, so many things still remind me of Brokeback Mountain! My partner and I were hiking in California's Sierra Nevada Moutains last weekend and just being out in that magnificent scenery instantly get me in touch with Jack and Ennis. Before we left, I was looking at the map and saw that just west of where we were staying on Highway 50 was a place named Riverton! It's actually not a town, but just a wide spot on the road, but there was a sign on a highway maintenance box. On the way home, we pulled of the road at a picnic table and while we were there, a guy and his wife pulled up with a horse trailer and let there horses out and they stood there eating grass. And a few weeks ago, I was bicycling south of San Francisco and just happened to look up at a random street sign and it was "Riverton!"

Brokeback Mountain is so engrained in my being. Every word or phrase I hear that was uttered in the movie catches my attention. Every piece of music with similar strains or feeling to Gustavo Santoalalla's score-every sad heart-break song. Everytime I rent a movie-heck, everytime I watch a movie!

Pete, do you carry a little camera with you? I would love to see a picture of those horses! We owe it to our urban, Eastern, and other hemisphere friends to post images of the West that remind us of BBM!

Sorry, no camera, I'm a bit of a Luddite. I really need to get a small digital camera. But I like your idea!

With me, it is more like So many things in Brokeback Mountain remind me of stuff in my own life and the lives of those whom I know or have known!
I have used or heard many of the expressions used in the movie and the book in my 63 plus years.
