Favorite facial expressions?
Daphne7661:
Oh My Goodness, you guys! I decided to use the last 10 minutes of my lunch to read just one thread, and I came upon this one.... I haven't cried over this film in a long time, and just reading everyone's favorite facial expressions brought the whole experience rushing back to me in a big wave of love and sadness.....
My positively favorite expressions:
ENNIS: The absolute ANGUISH (of having buried all of his emotion his entire life) and JOY (which he's never felt in his entire life) as he lies down with Jack in TS2.
My mom absolutely ADORES Ennis/Heath and says that, in that one 10 second moment, Heath sheds a light into Ennis' soul like nothing she's ever seen before.
JACK: Being a Jake/Jack lover, I have a hard time picking one favorite, but the one which always puts a smile on my face, is in the reunion scene, when he gets out of his truck, hears Ennis on the landing and looks up, relieved that Ennis is happy to see him, and runs toward the stairs with that enormous grin on his face and the relief of expression of love suppressed for four years buries itself in Ennis' arms..
:'(
Love,
Daphne

Of all the favourites listed, there are so many that bring all of these wonderful memories flooding back and a tears to my eyes.
I'd have to say one of my favourites is the look of total love on Jack's face as his smile widens when Ennis pulls up in his truck, late for one of their visits. The score associated with this scene adds considerably to the overall feeling of the moment.

Daphne,
Those are great moments!
Your right about TS2.
Ennis lets go and it's beautiful. Also, the way Jack cradles him and re-assures him is equally beautiful.

The few seconds right before Jack drives up, Ennis sucks at his lower lip is a detail that sticks in my mind for some reason..

Oh I looooooove that sucking in of the bottom lip and.... I hate to admit it... but I realised a few months ago that I still do that when I am waiting for the train...
LOL! The influence of this movie on my life is endless.... :laugh:

...What?
I just love this scene and that look on Ennis' face just before Jack says "Friend, that's more words than you've spoke in the past two weeks".
