Brokeback Mountain!

Nov 27, 2005 20:18

I know that Philippine theatres show movies with gay content, but do they actually show movies with gay love scenes? Because I'm worried that Brokeback Mountain might not show here. It's not the gay love scenes I'm after, ha. I read the original short story and it's beautiful. There was this line, it's kind of baduy but I love it anyway. Jack Twist says to Ennis Del Mar:

"I wish I knew how to quit you."

WAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Iiyak na ako. Hahaha. That's my favorite part. Medyo mahaba ang sinabi ni Jack eh.

"Try this one," said Jack, "and I'll say it just one time. Tell you what, we coulda had a good life together, a fuckin real good life. You wouldn't do it, Ennis, so what we got now is Brokeback Mountain. Everthing built on that. It's all we got, boy, fuckin all, so I hope you know that if you don't never know the rest. Count the damn few times we been together in twenty years. Measure the fuckin short leash you keep me on, then ask me about Mexico and then tell me you'll kill me for needin it and not hardly never gettin it. You got no fuckin idea how bad it gets. I'm not you. I can't make it on a couple a high-altitude fucks once or twice a year. You're too much for me, Ennis, you son of a whoreson bitch. I wish I knew how to quit you."

I can't wait to see Jake Gyllenhaal act that scene out.

I love you, Annie Proulx. Please make more short stories like Brokeback Mountain and make them available online.
