HAR30UR LIGHTS: Brokeback Mountain
To celebrate 30 years of Harbour Lights, we gave you twenty of our most popular releases of the past thirty years and asked you to pick your favourites. Hundreds of you did – and we’re proud to put the winning films back on the big screen for you! Celebrating its 20th anniversary this year – although in the UK we had to wait until January 2006 to bring it to our screens – Ang Lee’s follow-up to 200’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (also screening in this series) and 2003’s Hulk proved him to be one of the most versatile filmmakers of all time. A tender and beautiful love story, Brokeback Mountain won Lee the Best Director Oscar, thanks to the stunning visual language of the film and his work with Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal and Michaelle Williams – all of whom were Oscar-nominated for their incredible performances.
