The Film: Based on the short story by Annie Proulx, Brokeback Mountain caused a sensation on its release.

This movie affair was sordid enough to stir up a good deal of clamour. And all because Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal get a bit steamy.

We've seen way more offensive love scenes. These guys are pretty!

The Affair: Ledger's Ennis falls in love with Gyllenhaal's Jack. Which is marvellous, except that they both have wives.

Long-Term Relationship? They're in it for the long-haul.
