By the way David, what's the deal with the cute photo you included in your post?  I've seen other people post it here and there.  Is it a "real" photo from some promo shoot, or is it photo-shopped together?  I've always wondered where it came from.

it's photoshopped together. I've seen the original of Jake by himself in some magazine or other.

and yes, I love reading your expression of their moments together. I'm completely with you. For Jack, it's not the sex, but rather it's about the contact.

Penthesilea:
I found another lovable subtle detail:

"ain't no reigns on this one" I could melt on how Ennis says that (or how Heath delivers the line - pick out which description you prefer  :) ). And a second later, he does a kind of a very little sigh. It's not actually a sigh, it's unvoiced, more like letting the air out like "phhhhh..."
It shows Ennis's state of mind: giving up (can't fix it), resigning, and being emotionally exhausted by his thoughts and speech. Just by one little "phhhh". Makes this scene even more poignant. I love this sound. So sad but so sweet.

(Hope this is not old news for you. But those dubbing-technicians let it out in the German version  >:( . They also let out some of Ennis's thank yous and half of the humming. I'm still detecting differences between both versions with each viewing).

Oh, yeah, Penth! I love that moment, too. And that's a really good way to describe it. He looks so sad. And as Jack is caressing his face, there's also a tiny hint that he's allowing himself to relax a bit as he's comforted by Jack.

David:
For me it is all about the evening Ennis waits for Jack to show up.    Haven't we all been that anxious for a special person to arrive?   :)

nakymaton:
Hey, David, you know what I really love about that scene? A moment later, those little worry lines on Ennis's forehead melt away, and Ennis looks like he's going to simultaneously cry and smile at the same time.
