The main plot outline in both the short story and the film. The central drama and point of conflict in every love story is the obstacle between the lovers. In the best-known tragic love story in Western history, Romeo and Juliet, the obstacle is their feuding families; in the classic film Casablanca it is virtue and in Brief Encounter it is the marriage of one of the lovers. This is a story of unfulfilled love in Wyoming. Ennis and Jack, a rancher and aspiring rodeo rider, work together as sheep herders in the summer of 1963 on Brokeback Mountain in Wyoming. When they both got drunk on a cold night, they elevated their friendship to a new level of intimacy. They tried hard to hide their loves behind social society because they would not be accepted in those conservative days. But their loves were still alive. They spent more than 20 years stealing moments from the relationship. The secrets of Brokeback Mountain become in their minds the dreams they never realized again. Both the story and the film represent the concept of homosexuality and the intertwined literary traditions of elegy and nostalgic discourse, which are so central to the depiction of sexual love and passion. But Brokeback Mountain, the movie is much more complicated, as many other characters try to manipulate Ennis and Jack along their way. It involves a detailed subplot about Ennis' relationship with Alma and Jack's relationship with Lureen and how she involves him in life. It is important to note that although the film has the same premise as the story, the story focuses on men who have loved another man and lost him. Nostalgia and desire are hidden beneath the unaltered style of the story and the film. This is why the works have such a strong impact on the audience.PresentationRich with premonitions, the climax of the film is even more touching because it has been set up again and again throughout the script. From the moment Joe Aguirre warns men to obey his rules and sleep with sheep, we know that if we ignore his warning, things will go wrong. Ennis communicates his fear of repeating his parents' mistake and going off a curve. His encounter with a bear in the woods marks the first signs of impending danger. A second warning from nature comes in the form of the gutted sheep, lost to a predator, when Ennis and Jack break Aguirre's rules and spend a night away from the sheep..
