  • Essay / Brokeback Mountain - 1242

    The main plot of the short story and the film. The central drama and point of conflict in any love story is the obstacle between the lovers. In the most famous tragic love story in Western history, Romeo and Juliet, the obstacle is their feuding families; in the classic film Casablanca it is virtue and in Brief Encounter it is the marriage of one of the lovers. It's a story of unfulfilled love in Wyoming. Ennis and Jack, a ranch hand and aspiring rodeo rider, work together as sheep herders in the summer of 1963 on Brokeback Mountain in Wyoming. When they were both drunk one cold night, they took their friendships to a new level of intimacy. They tried to hide their loves behind social society because they would not be accepted in the conservative era. But their love was still alive. They spent over 20 years stealing bonding moments. Brokeback Mountain becomes dreams in their minds that they will never realize again.

Nostalgia and longing lie beneath the simple style of news and films. This is why the works have such an impact on audiences.ForeshadowingHeavy in foreshadowing, the film's climax is all the more poignant because it has been set up repeatedly throughout the storyline. From the moment Joe Aguirre warns the men to obey his rules and sleep with the sheep, we know that if he ignores his warning, things will go badly. Ennis communicates his fear of repeating his parents' mistake and going off the bend. His encounter with a bear in the woods announces the first signs of imminent danger. A second warning from nature comes in the form of the disemboweled sheep, lost to a predator, when Ennis and Jack break Aguirre's rules and spend a night away from the sheep..
