Brokeback Mountain

1963: One early summer morning in Signal, Wyoming, two 19-year-olds, taciturn ranch hand Ennis Del Mar (Heath Ledger) and second-rate rodeo cowboy Jack Twist (Jake Gyllenhaal), meet while looking for a job. The local rancher, Joe Aguirre (Randy Quaid), hires them for the summer to work as sheepherders on the idyllic Brokeback Mountain.
While up on Brokeback, Jack and Ennis develop a friendship of sorts. Even though Ennis hardly ever talks, Jack has taken a liking to him. One night, when the two sleep together in the same tent, they have sex. The next morning, they're in love - though both men are loath to think of themselves as "queer." From then on, they spend their time carousing, wrestling, and, sometimes, either shoving or punching one another.
Once their summer idyll is over, Jack and Ennis part ways. Ennis remains in Wyoming, where he marries his old sweetheart, Alma (Michelle Williams). In order to support his wife and his growing family - they have two daughters - Ennis must work hard to eke out a living.
Jack moves to Texas, where he meets fellow rodeo performer and wealthy heiress Lureen Newsome (Anne Hathaway). Lureen falls for him, whereas Jack knows a good opportunity when he sees one. The two get married and have a son, despite her father's blatant disapproval of the union.
Four years later, Jack returns to Wyoming for a brief visit. He and Ennis meet again, and it's as if they had never been away from each other. Alma catches them kissing, but keeps mum about it. She must now silently cope with the unpleasant fact that her husband is cheating on her with another man, whom he will be seeing on "fishing trips" about twice annually for the next 20 years.
Jack wants more, but Ennis is unwilling to move in with him. Recalling an incident in his youth, he's afraid that if they set up house together they will be murdered by gay bashers.
Eventually, Jack and Ennis are united - though not in the way either one would have intended.
