The Chinese director won the golden man with this film, and the tabloids were overwhelmingly publicized. At that time, I really didn't understand what "homosexuality" was, but I just thought that it must be something very special. In addition to the fact that it was produced by Chinese, it seemed that I should join in the fun and want to find out from the film.
Until high school, I spent 12 yuan to buy a pirated copy from a video store. I watched it about 3 or 4 times before I finished the whole movie. The content is too dull and bland. Every time I see half of it, I get drowsy, and when I get bored, I turn it out and start from the middle, and forget the front when I look at the back.
"Two men had it while shepherding sheep on Brokeback, and then one of them died." That's about all I know about the film.
After a lapse of many years, I picked up this movie again, and the movie that once made me drowsy actually burst into tears unknowingly. Even several times, woke up in the middle of the night and chewed over the details of the movie. The scene that once spurned too bland, has now become the foreshadowing of tears.
Excerpt 1. Ennis and Jack watch sheep for their employer on Brokeback Mountain. One person is responsible for daily life in the camp, and the other person goes to the mountain to guard the sheep, day after day.
The tranquil scenery of Brokeback Mountain is breathtaking. The two young cowboys fell in love with each other, and lived a "life" without being disturbed by the outside world in this beautiful mountain. It is two people who love each other living a simple and simple "life". The days on Brokeback Mountain were the happiest times in the lives of the two cowboys, because not everyone can live a simple life with the person they love the most. I seem to have been infinitely close, and now these are far away from me. Seeing Jack come down the hill on horseback, Ennis ignited the whisky and cans. Isn't this the kind of day I've always longed for? Cook a few simple dishes in the kitchen, wait for the sweetheart to come home from get off work, and occasionally call her to get something delicious on the way back. Plain and worthy of being cherished, why not make people cry.
Excerpt 2. The location is still at Brokeback Mountain, but 20 years later. The two green teenagers also transformed into middle-aged uncles. Ennis was divorced and alone for many years, but Jack was still separated from his wife, leaving traces of the years on their faces. But 20 years later, this Brokeback Mountain is still standing. Over the years, the two of them have maintained a tacit understanding, and they have fixed a few days each year to leave their family and work to come to this Brokeback Mountain. Jack's emotions exploded when Ennis offered to postpone the next meeting. Jack accuses Ennis of being cowardly, and makes him count the time the two have spent together over the past 20 years. He scolds Ennis for abandoning the reverie that the two could run a farm together. Because of Ennis's hesitation, the two weave endless lies to the people around them and to themselves just to come to this icy Brokeback Mountain every year. "How hard you have tied me all these years" "I love you so much that my heart hurts, God knows how I can give up on you," Jack said to Ennis, his love of 20 years. Ennis, who was accustomed to forbearance, heard these words, his shoulders began to tremble slightly, and he was almost unable to speak a sentence completely. He wanted to stop but could not stop the tears that fell desperately. When Jack saw his old friend like this, he really knew him too well. When they first parted at Brokeback Mountain 20 years ago, this was what Ennis looked like before he lost control. Jack showed a helpless expression, put away his grievances that he had not finished expressing, and immediately went up to hug Ennis who was out of control and comforted him in a low voice. This is the last time the two meet.
Excerpt 3: A postcard from Ennis to Jack (see you again in November? Don't be mad at me, pals.) was returned by the post office and stamped "Recipient deceased". Ennis immediately called Jack's house and learned from Jack's wife the cause of Jack's death and Jack's last wish (Jack wanted to scatter the ashes on Brokeback Mountain), so he went to Jack's hometown to retrieve the other half of the ashes. Jack's mother was very fond of Ennis and led him to Jack's room. The room was small and empty, without any decoration other than some simple furniture. Ennis opened Jack's closet and found two shirts in the closet. They were left when he was watching sheep in Brokeback Mountain 20 years ago. At that time, the two had a fight before parting. There were obvious marks on the two clothes. blood stains. Ennis remembers complaining to Jack that he forgot to take the clothes. It turned out that the clothes were quietly put away by Jack (most people have the experience of taking away their sweethearts). Jack's shirt was carefully wrapped around Ennis's. Ennis hugged their clothes tightly, but he couldn't hold Jack anymore.
Meeting and falling in love at the best of times is something to celebrate. Only because this feeling was not accepted by the world, thus laying a sad ending. Jack is warm and cheerful, Ennis is quiet and reserved. Jack unreservedly expressed his love and misses to Ennis, but Ennis had seen homosexuals who were murdered in his childhood, and he had always been homophobic in his heart. In those days, if two men ran a farm together and lived together, it meant that the relationship was open to the world, and Ennis refused Jack's invitation again and again, not exactly an escape, but a way to protect the two . Let's look at the real life of these two people. During the entanglement of nearly 20 years, Ennis's wife chose to divorce her husband because she could not bear the cold violence of her husband, and remarried to the boss of the unit. Ennis meets new girls and tries to date, but none of the girls can stand Ennis's silence. Jack became the door-to-door son-in-law of the big boss, and seemed to have a good life. In fact, Jack never really integrated into the family, nor was he respected by the family. Jack wanted to escape all the time.
"God knows how to give up on you," I said to myself.
Maybe it's for the best that we stop tangling. But knowing that you have a new relationship makes my heart hang. Fragments of once and you all come to mind. You burn the beef, cook the Tremella soup, and moxibustion before going to bed. The amusement park we visited together, the subway station in front of your house. I can't help but feel sad thinking that I'll never experience this with me again. People always overestimate themselves. I thought I would be free and easy to send blessings from the heart, but in fact I was still too vulnerable to face what I heard, so I deleted your contact information. I still remember the last time you came to my house, you said that the chances of two people falling in love and being suitable for each other are very small, and you should be thankful to find someone you like. But at that time, I stubbornly believed that it was more important to be compatible with each other, so I turned my back on my heart. If I could go back in time, I really hope I can go back to that time, and I will definitely hug you well. I lost to my ego. I always thought that two people were not separated because there was no love. As long as there was no one else by their side, they could get back together at any time. But now the reality is wanton laughing at my frivolity, and no one will wait for you in place. This sentence taught me the lesson I deserved. I know that only the next relationship will heal me, but I don't know how to start the next one. I've left the store, but my feet don't seem to be able to move anymore.
"Forgetting the pain may be able to
forget you, but it's too easy."
The most sad thing is not that the two are no longer in love, but that those who were in love will eventually be thrown into the wind by reality.
