Well, I finally saw Brokeback Mountain yesterday with a couple friends. (Don't bother trying to take my gay card away -- I ran it through the washing machine in 2002 and haven't been the same since.) Even with the incredible hype surrounding the film I was able to go into it fairly open minded.
The film kinda crept up on me as far as emotional investment... I might have been a bit guarded at the beginning, but by the end I was aware of the weight of the story on me -- like I could feel the oppression and guarded emotion. Even thinking back on it now is kinda getting me to that place again...
Anyway, BEAUTIFUL film -- it will be definitely going on my wish list for my DVD collection.

I just saw it this weekend in too. I thought the movie lived up to all of the hype too. One of the best that I've seen in a long time.
