Wow! I saw the movie for the first time Monday. It's Wednesday and I still hurt. The movie was so beautifully done. The characters were so real.
Aside from the time and the setting this story mirrored my life in so many ways it is scary. It is so true, "Love is a Force of Nature"! It has been 19yrs since the first time I saw him and I was taken at the first glance. I didn't know at the time what I was feeling was love. But it was, pure sweet and beautiful. It goes beyond gender I fell inlove with a person, a soul that happened to be in the body of another man. For 3 yrs nothing happened. Our friendship grew as did my love. He moved away and I was devesated. We kept in touch and I finally went and visited him. I met his girlfriend and we went and did stuff together. Then one night after she went home he leaned over and kissed me. I then know he was feeling the same way all those years. It was a wonderful night of passion and lovemaking. In the morning though he as well as myself, were scared of what we were feeling. We said we wouldn't talk about it. He went on to marry. he came to visit right after that by himself to see his family who all lived in our town. He stayed with me. Well, we didn't talk about it we just did it all over again. The next year I married. we both had kids and kept our secret friendship. Well, he decided he needed to live that lifestyle everyday and divorced his wife. He now lives with a man and is very happy. He told me I need to come out and find happiness. However, that won't bring me happiness. You see. I don't love men, I just love one man. I will end up like Ennis. Alone and sad. My marriage is loveless and I know it will one day end when the children are older. My wife will probably re-marry but I won't. There is only one love for me and I don't think I will ever have it again. It's not enough to have loved and lost but thats all I have so thats all I will have.
Thank you for listening and thank you to all involved with this movie!
It will be a treasure for many years to come.
Lee

(I posted this last week on the IDMP board after first seeing the movie. I have seen it twice since then and still feel the same. My heart hurts and my head hurts. what a great movie)

Hi, Loneleeb3...welcome to Bettermost. You just found our little movie? It does hit hard. We say it gets you when you are ready to be got. You are with friends here. I know you are hurting but you can come here and talk...we have all been there.

There is a lot of talk about Ennis and whether he was a 'one man' man....I don't know. I have seen a lot of arguements for and against. But you need to remember that you have choices now that can help you NOT be like Ennis....

Read through and post as much as you like....if you have a question let anyone of us know and we will try to point you in the right direction...the moderators are all in red print...

I am glad you are here! {{{Loneleeb3}}
