Well, that was some movie...
The dialogue was a little hard to understand, but the looks the actors gave to each other was a lot easier to understand.
Set in 1963, two guys both experienced with working on farms, take a job tending sheep on a remote mountain (two guesses which mountain it is!).
During their time alone they begin to form a bond that develops into a sexual relationship, and this lasts until the job ends. Upon going back to their own daily lives, we see how the attraction begins to torment the two over the following two decades.
Both actors did really well in the movie - and both deserve to be nominated for an Academy Award. In my view it is a very strong contender for the Best Film category, however towards the end of 2005 there were a lot of other great films - namely 'Crash'. Nevertheless, a heartstopping love story, that adequately depicts the social pressures in provincial areas.
Well done Ang Lee!
