it really is heartbreaking!

i need to watch this again.

They kept their back and forth thing they had going on for so many years, without any kind of happy end. They were all broken, their wives too.

Yeah, me too. I always say I'll watch it again, but don't pull through. It's a movie you gotta be in the mood to watch.

Even though the movie is sad and angstsy, you really need to watch it because it's beautifully done. The script, the actors, cinematography, costuming, sound etc are just exceptional.

It really is a standout movie, Ang and the rest of the cast/crew did a great job. So did the writer of the short story. I was glad this got recognition at the Oscars and other award shows.

GALLOWAY: You've made some very bold choices and I wonder, when you came to do Brokeback Mountain, if you were frightened of that? Let's watch. It's very hard to get a short clip.

GYLLENHAAL: I know. I'm trying to figure out what clip you picked. I'm like, “Here we go. All right!” [LAUGHTER]

GALLOWAY: You can guess? This is towards the end of the movie.

[CLIP] [APPLAUSE]

GALLOWAY: Does that bring back memories?

GYLLENHAAL: Yeah. It definitely does. I was like, “It definitely does.” [LAUGHTER] Yeah it does. It's funny, I was thinking about it: I haven't seen that in a while, but so many jokes have been made about "I can't quit you." It's like, “My God!” And it's not even on my face. The shot is on my back.

GALLOWAY: Right, it was very strong seeing that. But it's one of the great movie lines and everybody who has been in an intense relationship has got to that point.

GYLLENHAAL: Isn't that amazing?

GALLOWAY: I love the fact that it's not on your face.

GYLLENHAAL: Not on your face. The power of the story.

GALLOWAY: It's amazing how the world has changed because, at that time, a lot of actors didn't want to play a gay role.

GYLLENHAAL: Mm-hmm.

GALLOWAY: Did you feel that pressure?

GYLLENHAAL: Now everybody does.

[LAUGHTER]

GYLLENHAAL: Did I feel the pressure? No. I think maybe naively, but also just I had been brought up a different way. I had been brought up in an elementary school where, my first few grades, I remember being specifically told that my teachers were gay. I was just that age and that was just how it was, and my parents were very... You know, that's how I was raised. Like super-progressive. And so it's just something I took for granted, weirdly. At the time. I think, now, younger generations do take that for granted in a lot of ways. I don't think that takes away from the struggle of identity and what that is. But the struggle for identity is everybody's struggle. No matter what it is.

Thanks for sharing that transcript, nice read.

The 'I wish I knew how to quit you' is memorable and my favorite one.

jakesprincess · 11-22-2016, 09:36 AM

mine too. i love how people are still referencing that line today.

Street Spirit · 11-24-2016, 01:22 AM

It's very memorable. Another memorable one is Ennis's "Jack, I swear" at the end.
