Brokeback Mountain

2 hr 8 min

Drama

2005

A

The story of two young men, a ranch hand and a rodeo cowboy, who meet in the summer of 1961 amid the sweeping vistas of Wyoming and fall in love. As their paths interweave over the course of twenty years, the two must deal with the harsh landscape of fear, violence, and intolerance in 1960s rural America. Powerful, raw, and controversial, the film became a cultural phenomenon as both a watershed moment in the struggle for gay rights and as a universal love story with mass appeal.
