  • Hey guys, I'm back with another video!! So, in today's video I decided to set myself a challenge which was to try not cry at the iconic movie "Brokeback Mountain". If you've already seen this movie you will understand that this is a near impossible task, as this has to be one of the saddest movies ever lol, but I guess here goes. Enjoy xoxo
    Hope you guys enjoyed this video if so please be sure to like, comment and SUBSCRIBE!! Share with your friends too!!

      “I think it's an incredible shame that people go out of their way to voice their disgust or their negative opinions against the ways in which two people choose to love each other. At least voice your opinions about how two people show hate and violence and anger towards one another. I also feel like [the film] will surprise people. It's obviously about two men in love and it's obviously 'gay-themed' and it's very easily labeled, but unfotunately people are quick in life to label stuff they're uncomfortable with. Get over the fact it's two men - that's the point... We're showing that love between two men is just as infectious and emotional and strong and pure as it is with heterosexual love. And if you can't understand it, just don't go see the movie. We don't care. Deal with it in your own private life. Don't voice it out. We don't want to know." - Heath Ledger

And I also know a lot of people that didn't think it was all that great in the first place even when it originally came out. My personal opinion is that there is a lot of undeserved hype surrounding that movie and media like that usually doesn't stand the test of time. I also think some of the attention it gets is simply because it is one of the few lgbt themed movies that went mainstream in such a big way, but with time as more (and better) lgbt movies are made, it won't hold that special position anymore. Or at least one can hope. We definitely need better, more positive representations of lgbt relationships in mainstream media. We've definitely had enough of sob stories.

      @@dannielliebear5269 I personally just found it, above anything else, boring. It's so slow! Don't get me wrong, its beautifully shot and I can appreciate good cinematography, but the story is bland as a 5 day old piece of stale white bread. As for uncomfortable, in hindsight, the fact that the main character was a minor who was somewhat preyed on by an older foreign man definitely doesn't sit well. But that's part of what people romanticise, which is disturbing to say the least. And the infamous peach scene, as much as an allegory as it was, to me isn't romantic whatsoever. Different strokes for different folks I suppose. But I definitely don't think it will go down as a classic.

    I think Anne's character lied about how Jack died because there's no way to publicly tell the truth about it without ALSO raising too many questions about exactly WHY that group of men beat him to death. Her family likely insisted on lying about the method of death in order to avoid a scandal, or any judgment being cast on her for being married to "one of THOSE people."
    So poor Jack, who wanted nothing more than to live openly, honestly, and without shame, is forced into a lie even in death.

    Brad, my dear, I'm a queer man who grew up in rural Mormon Utah in the 60s and 70s and heard horror stories not too different from this. I saw the movie in the cinema once in 2005, and have NEVER been able to watch it again - it pierced my heart so deeply. I and many, many others will never consider the trash that won "Best Picture" that year as legitimate. As much queer influence as there was in Hollywood even back then, most of the stuckup conservative Academy members couldn't stomach the idea of a gay best picture

      I heard those same horror stories in the midwest in the same time frame that you mentioned. It seemed my whole life was surrounded by prudes and haters. Anyhow, I appreciate your response to Brokeback. I have watched it more than once because it reminds me---only in the broadest of contours---of my First Beloved, and a very special summer we spent together. Brokeback was the best picture of the year, regardless of what the Academy decided, and it is probably the best picture of its decade.

      she absolutely minded. They were clearly having problems and lived an estranged marriage. Maybe she kind of understood why Jack was behaving the way he did. It didn't take away from the shame of not being loved and cared for by her husband whom she had put everything in her life at risk for (since she came from a business family and Jack was basically a bit of a "slacker" and trying to find himself) including her relationship with her parents. Everyone in that town must have known or suspected smth was up and Jack was, tormented or not, pretty unempathetic and selfish at times. She had over time just numbed to the situation and endured it. The movie did a fantastic job of also making the wife characters multi-dimensional and very human. It showed that nobody in those relationships was gonna win, everyone was suffering - that it was just a shit situation because those men were trapped within the confinements of what society back then allowed them.

It hurts every time because I know this is so many peoples story and so many people still don't take it seriously and that absolutely wrecks me. So many people joke about this film, including people in the queer community and that devastates me. Queer folks from the past that are no longer alive don't deserve to be mocked. This is just one example of how to observe and honor their experience. It's so important as queer people to understand what our past was and what it is now. Thanks for reacting to this, Brad!

    even though ang lee won the oscar for directing at the 2006 oscars, i will forever be mad that brokeback lost best picture to _crash_ of all movies (it's a good film but nowhere near the other nominees that year). also, personally i feel like heath should've won an oscar for this instead of the dark knight (as iconic as his joker was, imo he was better and more nuanced in brokeback and deserved the recognition). and that means that he would've received an oscar when he was still alive and would've seen how admired he was as a person and an actor 🥲 wish he was still with us today to see how truly impactful this movie has become

    Ok, storytime. I used to have fights on Yahoo groups and things like that about this film when it first came out, because I think people buy into this mythological concept of the cowboy iconic, because of John Wayne films and the like... when really, the gayness just flew rampant out there (and still does to an extent,) under the surface. So, yeah. When this movie came out, I went to the theater and I saw it like five times, because I just couldn't deal with the ending, and I guess subconsciously I believed that if I kept going back, it would change, or something? And I'm from a very rural area, close to where these were filmed, where attitudes really haven't changed much, & I remember the last time I went to see it, a 50-ish lady came in there with her 60-ish husband... and he had his hat on inside the building. In that area of the world, wearing your hat indoors is a sign that you are entirely disrespecting everything that is going on around you, because taking your hat off is a sign of respect for the venue (especially in a movie theater, because it's just rude to keep it on and block people's view)... so the fact that he was coming in there but refusing to take his hat off was his making a statement that he was there under protest, that he didn't want to be there, he didn't want to see this, he was pissed off that his wife was taking him to this film. They watched the movie in silence... & at the end, when Ennis had exchanged the shirts so that his shirt was embracing Jack's shirt and he said those last words.... finally, there in front of me, that hat came off, and the man put his fingers to his eyes, and his wife poked him with her elbow in the side and hissed, "See, I told you". And I knew that it had got him, and it had changed his views, and I was I will never forget that, because that's how powerful this film is.

I suspect, given this all started in 1963 (I was only 8 years of age then), the portrayal of the times and attitudes are pretty much spot on. It wasn't easy in the 1970s. It could not have been easy in the 1960s, either.

    When I was growing up, my parents were homophobic. No "burning in hell" or outward hate, but they were intolerant and regarded it as shameful and unnatural (which unfortunately helped keep me in the closet for a long time). Today, they are MUCH better, especially in speaking up for gay rights and equity. But back when Brokeback came out, my mom had advanced some, but my dad was still pretty stuck in his old mindset.
    Then one day, I'm over at their house, and my dad (who is also very country and with a thick southern accent), says,
    "You know, I thought I'd give that Brokeback Mountain movie a try. Especially since I really like that Jake kid."
    * *me as time freezes, trying not to look too shocked 😮* *
    "And you know what? That is a really, really good movie."
    * *now probably failing not to look shocked but doing my best 😳* *
    "But its just so sad, you know? Jack just wanted them to have a life together. And Ennis, he was just scared is all. Especially after what his father did. And then they go an kill poor Jack! Just for being gay. That's not right. And poor Ennis, he'll probably never love anybody else for the rest of his life."

    so the reason it’s really difficult to tell whether Jack’s wife knows that Ennis and Jack were together is because Anne Hathaway has said that they shot two versions of the scene one where she knew, and one where she didn’t. she was told they did that because they hadn’t decided which one they were gonna go with for the final film. she says the final cut is actually a mixture of the two takes hence why it’s hard to read whether she’s sad about her husband, or angry/jealous about talking to the man he was cheating on her with (if i remember the interview correctly she actually said she THINKS it a mix of the two she may not have been sure)
    also the scene of jack getting beaten to death is possibly meant to be in Ennis’ head, the point is that while Jack’s wife may have been told one story there is a very real possibility that he was beaten to death for being queer, but also that if his death was just an accident/‘senseless’, it makes sense Ennis would have a hard time grappling with that and might assume it was a beating because then at least you have a reason for why he died

    - God's Own Country (the "British version" of Brokeback Mountain...)
    - The Boys in the Band (shows how gay people lived in the 60s, the whole cast is queer)

    I watched the movie two or three times but I still don’t know how I feel about it. It is beautiful and so sad at the same time. I understand it’s in the sixties and homosexuality was still considered a mental illness but look at what happened, not only Jack and Ennis suffered but two other women got hurt because they had to get married… and the saddest part of it is that it still exists. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have watched it 😢 Now I’m depressed I need to go watch your heartstopper réactions 🥰

      The times were different back then. I'm 65 now, and I was married to a woman for 11 yrs from 1977-1988....I asked for the divorce because I was miserable and ready to come out....but when my employer of the past decade found out I was gay, they fired me....so...there are reasons for how we dealt with the homophobia of those times...not to mention that AIDS was killing off all of our gay friends right and left for the next decade after coming out......so, being married to a woman probably saved my life. I am so lucky to have a daughter and a granddaughter who love me and were raised to understand and love LGBT people. Our paths are not always easy, nor direct to our goals...but we did the best we could back then and got through it.

My mom got worried when i got downstairs looking like a total wreck lol. It’s a stunning movie. The acting is so good, it’s shot wonderfully and i can’t listen to that soundtrack without tearing up. It’s not a something i want to rewatch. It’s too painful and upsetting but i do think it’s a very important movie.

    The first time a watched it i was like 17 and i was shocked, i think at the time i was not that aware of the lgbtq+ community around me since where i live is not something you talk about openly or not without it being a joke. So i watched it at a sleepover with some friends and we all fell to silence at the end. It made me feel a lot of things, i recognized instantly that it was going to be a beautiful story, but how it ended for one of the characters made me sick to my stomach, i couldnt comprehend how or why they had to suffer so much just for love. It made me tear up, it made me aware of the people around me, it woke me up to be gentle and respectful. It hurt, but it was worth it.
    Ps. I love your reactions!! I was wondering if you have ever watched a BL Thai drama? If not, allow me to recommend KinnPorsche, its a very good one, and i think its helping Thai BL grow and be recognized more. Thanks!!

    First of all the edits are funny. This is my first video of yours to watch. Answer to question: Why does this movie have to end on such a downer? Easily answered. It doesn’t. After decades together and one gone to heaven, what more do you want? Ennis isn’t going to go to Fire Island and NYC and be a party favor or daddy. Ennis is closed, insular, brooding, with very little tolerance for emotion. When I first saw this, I saw some twink queen pretend to wipe his eyes at the end like he understood the gravity of what he just saw. It’s only when you’ve been in love and gone thru hell together with your partner that this movie opens up like a flower and let’s you peer into it’s true power. You might be a bit too young, a bit immature to understand Heath Ledger’s magnificent performance. I mean no disrespect, age changes people, you’ll see. I’m 43 and can see the gift this movie is to our gay community. The day your naïveté has gone, watch this again. You’ll understand. Kisses, doll.
