Summary of Brokeback Mountain. From director Ang Lee comes an American love story, based on the story by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Proulx and adapted for the screen by the team of author Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana. Set against the landscape of Wyoming and Texas in 1963, the film tells the story of a ranch-hand and a rodeo cowboy. They unexpectedly forge a lifelong connection, one whose complications, joys and tragedies provide a testament to the power of love. The story of two men who meet in the summer of 1963, Jack (Gyllenhaal) and Ennis (Ledger), as sheepherders in Wyoming and are surprised to find that they are falling in love. The movie covers 20 years and is about the struggles the two men in love face during a judgemental time. Anne Hathaway plays an ex-rodeo wife of Gyllenhaal's character and Williams plays the wife of Ledger, while Quaid will play the hard-bitten foreman who employs the cowboys. Signal, Wyoming, 1963, Ennis (Ledger) and Jack (Gyllenhaal) meet while lining up for employment with local rancher Joe Aguirre (Quaid). The world which Ennis del Mar and Jack Twist have been born into is changing rapidly and yet scarcely evolving. Both young men seem certain of their places in the heartland – obtaining steady work, marrying and raising a family – and yet hunger for something beyond what they can articulate. When Aguirre dispatches them to work up on the majestic Brokeback Mountain, they gravitate towards camaraderie, friendship andintimacy. At the end of the summer, the two must come down from Brokeback and they each follows his own path. Remaining in Wyoming, Ennis weds his sweetheart Alma (Michelle Williams), with whom he will have two daughters as he ekes out a living. Jack, in Texas, catches the eye of a rodeo queen Lureen Newsome (AHathaway). Their courtship and marriage result in a son, as well as jobs in her father's business. Starring: Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Williams, Anne Hathaway and Linda Cardellini. |
