I guess many of you follow brokeback mountain news and articles on the net, still sharing - came across this recent coverage - Brokeback Mountain 10 years of oral history.
Very interesting, a few new facts. The ones that touch you and make you think again :
Heath ledger didn't like "wish i knew how to quit you " memes and jokes.
Some interesting facts about how heath and Michelle's relationship developed ( awwwe)
How heath really punched the brick wall ...real hard... Wounding his hand and freaking out the crew.
Jake on the experience - once they began shooting, the cast and crew grew closer than is typical on a movie set. "For the first month of shooting, we all lived by this river in little trailers, and I had my dog there. We all just lived on a campground and would walk to set. You know, in a world driven by commerce, particularly in the movie business, there's no time spent together – relationships are fleeting," the actor says. "We are all still close – not just bonded by the success of the film, but bonded by the experience. It was an intimate project in that way. We'd wake up and make breakfast for each other and hang out. It was a really special, special time."
Ang lee "people. I think everybody involved felt that way, like we were blessed. I don't have another movie I feel that way about."
Jake "While there are many parts of the real story that are sad, one of the saddest things is that I won't be able to exchange ideas creatively with Heath again, because that was one of the most beautiful things to come out of that"
However again i dont really appreciate the media asking jake over and over again his feelings on heath's death etc, its a pity that he has to calmly keep answering the same question.

Precious, a recent article on bbm anniversary

In fact, a Finnish Brokie sent me another article that did a similar looking back -- with hindsight. I should try to post it either here or some related thread!
Thanks for the article. I suspect that we'll see a few articles commemorating the 10-year anniversary.

Thanks youbet.
Just wanted to add that Tizi has posted many links in the 10th anniversary screening thread.

sorry, since we have no "news 2016" i thought to put it here:
BBM is no. 40 in BBC's 21st Century 100 greatest films O0

That's great, even if it should be number one. ;)
Zodiac is number 12! }s{

After all these years, somebody is still writing about our film. I found this article in a university newspaper from SUNY Oswego in upstate New York.
