I had my doubts about this movie. It's been so overhyped on television, and so underhyped on these boards, I really didn't know what the hell to expect.
The film was great. People need to get the "gay cowboy movie" mentality out of their heads. This isn't about two gay cowboys. It's a love story. A love shared between two people who are unable to be together. Lee's direction is beautiful, Ledger and Gyllenhaal were great in their roles (especially Ledger, who played a convincing cowboy from the mid-west, especially for being an Aussie).
