Ennis Del Mar
Why watch this?
This is a love story, set in a place where folks don't tolerate
anybody "different".
Plot Summary:
In 1963, two out-of-work cowboys, Jack and Ennis, hire on working
sheep in the Wyoming wilderness. Unexpectedly, the two become
intimate, something they agree was a "one time deal". They
return to their lives, both marrying and having kids. Over the
next ten years, however, their forbidden relationship
grows as they meet for annual fishing trips.
Dad's Preview: This complex,
unconventional love story painfully illustrates the jagged edge
these rugged men had to walk if they dared show their true
feelings. Ledger and Gyllenhaal deliver incredible performances
under Ang Lee's sensitive direction. The film won three Oscars,
including Best Director and Best Score.
