Her Head In Films

In this episode, I talk about Ang Lee's 2005 film, "Brokeback Mountain." It's a grand love story about two cowboys--Ennis and Jack--who fall in love in 1960s Wyoming. Their romance spans decades but, because of homophobia, they're never able to fully be together. I consider this a modern classic and one of the greatest love stories of all time. I talk about how the film was made, why it moves me so deeply, and much more.Consider making this podcast sustainable by supporting it on Patreon.Subscribe to the Her Head in Films Newsletter.Follow me on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.Original logo by Dhiyanah HassanFull Show NotesMy episode on Kelly Reichardt's WENDY AND LUCYCasting ByA Field Guide to Getting Lost by Rebecca SolnitLife ItselfDouglas SirkFar From HeavenSweetgrassLeviathanBovinesMicrocosmosWinged MigrationThe Trials of Gabriel FernandezMy episode on James Ivory's MAURICEAll That Heaven AllowsImitation of LifeRaymond CarverSources"Brokeback Mountain" by Annie Proulx (The New Yorker)Ang Lee: Interviews
