I ordered it on Amazon and it's been sent so should be here tomorrow. It was well discounted.

OK, I saw the film about 6 hours ago and I'm not sure what to do. It's really hit me hard, and I can't rest. I can't get to sleep, and I don't want to eat. It's like there's this big weight on my shoulders that I can't shake off.
It's such an unbelievably sad story, and I wasn't expecting it to hit me so hard, so when it did it knocked me for six. I tried my best to fight back the tears because I didn't want to look like such an emotional wreck in front of everybody, but by the closing credits I couldn't bear it and I broke down.
What hit me was the fact that it's made me think about how lucky I am to be in a situation where I'm allowed to express myself, to be comfortable my sexuality and be who I am. I've never faced any social prejudice because I'm gay and I doubt I'd give two tosses when I do, but such a tender story as that really makes me sympathise with the characters.
I can't really put into worRAB how much I adore Jake Gyllenhaal right now...

Just saw this and I thought it was good. Very touching performances from Heath Ledger, Jake Gylenhaal and Michelle Williams.

My take on that has always been that before, when Jack had the shirts it was him keeping Ennis close - in his embrace so to speak, now it's Ennis keeping Jack close, so the positions are reversed.
I'm really torn about the DVD, I know what the extras are and there's no deleted scenes, which is what I want (especially the hippie one which sounRAB brilliantly naff
), so I'm pondering waiting for a special edition coming out and stick with my excellent *cough*but completely dodgy*cough* DVD - surely there has to be a special edition, as I think the success of the film probably caught even the makers by surprise and there's a lot more that could be on the DVD (thinks about the 13 takes for the reunion kiss 
)

I saw this film earlier so it's still very fresh in my mind. I've already posted my thoughts of the film elsewhere, and I don'twant to do it again because every time I think about the film I get very teary. Also, what I'm about to say is going make it sound like I'm grossly over-reacting. But this film has had a greater effect on me than any other film I've ever seen, so I don't care.

The last 2 messages sum up everything I thought/experienced with this film and yes I agree - the greatest film ever.
I managed to get one of the original cimena posters which I hope to frame.

I'd normally see anything with Jake Gyllenhaal in but no film has ever affected me like this film did & continues too...Though I too have had a version of it on disc for some time will be heading out to the shops tommorrow to get it officially. I don't know if there will be a special edition of it as from everything I've read Ang Lee tenRAB to shoot films as they end up & from what i can remember theres only 2 or 3 scenes missing that aren't essential.
