Added to the National Film Registry in 2018.
One of the first films of the century to usher queer love stories into the mainstream, Ang Lee’s tale of 1960s Wyoming cowboys Ennis Del Mar (Heath Ledger) and Jack Twist (Jake Gyllenhaal), and the romance they must repress, instantly entered the cultural zeitgeist as a work of aching beauty and simmering emotion. This beloved neo-Western was nominated for Best Picture at the 78th Oscars, and won for Directing for Ang Lee, Adapted Screenplay for writers Larry McMurtry (The Last Picture Show) and Diana Ossana, who also produced with James Schamus, and Original Score for Gustavo Santaolalla.
