Brokeback Mountain

In "Brokeback Mountain," Ennis del Mar and Jack Twist, two cowboys, come together when they're working as herder and camp tender one summer on a range above the tree line. "During the day Ennis looked across a great gulf and sometimes saw Jack, a small dot moving across a high meadow as an insect moves across a tablecloth; Jack, in his dark camp, saw Ennis as night fire, a red spark on the huge black mass of mountain." At first, sharing an isolated cabin, they just fall into sex as casually and inevitably as sheep. But something deeper catches them.
