Book Reviews of Brokeback Mountain: Story to Screenplay
Book Review: A Great Read
Summary: 5 Stars
This volume collects Annie Proulx's short story "Brokeback Mountain" (first published in the New Yorker and collected in her "Close Range: Wyoming Stories"), Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana's screenplay, a short piece called "Getting Movied" by Proulx, and a piece by each screenwriter. As such, it offers good value for money for what you get.
I don't normally buy screenplays, but the film is so beautiful and the adaptation from the story is of such quality that I wanted to own the screenplay. The film is, quite simply, a work of extraordinary genius by a director who is now at the height of his powers. The screenplay, too, is of uncommon quality. You should own this. Simple as that.
