Brokeback Mountain (2005)

Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal play Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist, two young cowboys paired up for a job tending sheep on a Wyoming mountain. As the days go by, their relationship develops until, after a heavy night drinking whisky, they make passionate love.

Initially denying the attraction each feels for the other, they go their separate ways at the end of the job. Both marry and have children but meet regularly to slake their undying passion for each other, living desperate, unfulfilled lives between each meeting until the untimely death of one leaves the other broken and devastated.

Ang Lee's Oscar-winning drama is a bold, emotional story of a passion that cannot be denied but must be hidden from a world that can only condemn it.
