I really enjoyed the film and felt it was really well made. Due to the nature of the film I never talk about it to anyone because I know the general reaction I'll get. But did you like it? Have you even watched it or did you choose not to?

Never watched it, didn't seem like a movie that would interest me, just like I avoid most romantic/romantic comedy movies.

Yes and as a bisexual myself, it is one of the greatest films I've seen. Amazing cinematrography and music.

For what it was, it was interesting. Not my type of movie, but not boring, as in I could watch it entirely.

I don't really like it. I think it would be better with cuter leads.

Elijah would have made a good gay cowboy.

I'm not really into lgbt stuff though so that's why the drama wasn't interesting to me.

I thought it was great. The scenery was absolutely beautiful. Such a tragic end, though.

I dont think cute boys would be found in the mountains for months at a time living off the land.

Also, I thought one of the main points of the film was to show that rough, tough, manly men can be gay thus breaking stereotypes.

Ive never seen it. I love both Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhal, but I never thought it looked good honestly. And no, not because of the relationship the movie is about. If I hear enough good things about it, then Ill watch it on Netflix.

saw it, didn't really think it was great on its own but considering it was a big budget, heavily promoted film with well known actors and not some indie flick was a big jump over the typical gay and lesbian film, that's where the film I think gets most of its attention personally though as far as LGBT films I'm more partial to others like But I'm A Cheerleader or Mysterious Skin

The story it was based on was very short and they made it into a two hour film. It was a good film but it stretched on for a bit.

Did you guys know that Heath Ledger died because of his role in the movie? He upset God. [spoiler] I'm kidding. But yeah, not my type of movie. [/spoiler]

The main point of the film is to show Bisexual cowboys, rough and manly. Elijah is too gay looking. Though Jake was kinda gay looking too, but not as much.

It was much slower than I thought but I still really enjoyed it. I thought it was touching and I love it whenever LGBT representation and charcaters crack into the mainstream.

Were they bi or were their wives beards? Back in those days gay men would repress their sexuality and have relations with the opposite sex so they would apear heterosexual (still happens now but not as much)

I would guess that Heath Ledgers character was bisexual, but Jakes character was indeed gay Heath appeared to have simply fallen in love with Jakes, but he had no issues being with women. Jakes character however was desperate for some meat.:lol:

My favourite part of the film is how they portray aging. How do you add 20 year's onto a person? Just give him a mustache. It's funny how at the end of the film it's many years later and everyone looks the same but has a mustache.

That is true. Heath actually looked a bit old. Jake however continued to look young.

Great movie. If you can get over the homosexual plotline, the movie has a lot to offer.

Back when it first came out on dvd my wife and her friend thought it be just wonderful if we all watched it at their house. So we did. Was kinda slow. Wasn't bothered by the homosexuality. But me and the other dude busted up laughing at the end when [spoiler] they said that the one guy died from a tiring blowing up in his face [/spoiler]

da women didn't think that was funny tho..

Never seen it, but not because I avoided it. I was too young when it originally came out, and I've never gotten around to seeing it. I wouldn't mind though.

I thought is very well made, and an overall great movie but a bit slow. Not really my type of movie, but neither is any type of romance films.
