Brokeback Mountain (2005)

Directed by Ang Lee
This is the second time watching this film. This time, I read the screenplay beforehand. The screenplay of this film was amazing. I think it was the first time for me to be moved by reading a screenplay.
Two things that I want to write down for me to remember about this film. Fiirst, the music. I thought the music was a great marriage to this picture. The composer's name is Gustavo Santaolalla. He has also worked on Amores perros & Babel. (From IMDB) I haven't seen them yet, but I heard they are good.
Second, the gorgeous sceneries. A number of sheep, the mountain, the snow, the rain... It's not common to be able to "feel" the wind and its smell through the images in film. It was wonderful.
