Love is a force of nature.

Verano de 1963, en Wyoming. Ennis Del Mar y Jack Twist hacen cola junto a otros aspirantes para trabajar en el rancho de Joe Aguirre. Ambos buscan lo mismo: un empleo estable que les permita casarse y formar una familia. Aguirre los contrata y los envía a cuidar ganado a la montaña Brokeback, un paraje ficticio de belleza imponente y aislado del resto del mundo. Allí, los dos jóvenes pasan los días juntos, y entre ellos empieza a crecer una camaradería que se va estrechando poco a poco. La película la dirige Ang Lee, y encabezan el reparto Heath Ledger y Jake Gyllenhaal.

Trivia about Brokeback Mountain

Aunque la historia transcurre en Wyoming, el rodaje tuvo lugar casi por completo en las Montañas Rocosas canadienses, en el sur de Alberta. Lee eligió Alberta por razones económicas.
Las autoridades de Alberta prohibieron al equipo llevar ovejas domésticas a las Rocosas por el riesgo de enfermedades para la fauna local, aunque luego permitieron rodar en una montaña con traslados diarios.
Los guionistas propusieron a Heath Ledger en 2003, pero el estudio consideró que no era lo bastante masculino. Ledger acabó en el proyecto después de que la directora de casting Avy Kaufman le enviara el guion.
Anne Hathaway mintió a Lee sobre sus conocimientos de equitación para conseguir el papel de Lureen y después tomó clases durante dos meses.
