lovable subtle details
David:
Tell you what, I just noticed something new yesterday too.
In the Thanksgiving scene at Monroes house. Right when Ennis is storming out of the house, you'll see a picture hanging to the left of the front door. It is of the snow capped Mountains! Ennis making a fast exit to the mountains? From the suspicious eyes of his ex-wife to the lure of the mountains where he was happy with Jack....
Sigh......(wipes Tear) :'(

Hi david,
I noticed it too, but only after I read a post by Casey Cornelius about it over on imdb. ;D I've only seen the movie in the theater (12 or so times) because I don't have the dvd yet, but honestly, I get so swept up by all the emotions I'm going through that I 'm not in the right frame of mind to pay attention to all the sublime details. A prayer of thanks to all the people who actually do and are so kind as to tell you about it.
Here's the link to casey's post: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0388795/board/thread/43227111?d=43227111#43227111

I wasn't quite sure where to post this pic. This appears to be a pic taken during rehearsal of the last night drinking. The final scene was shot later and Jack had a coat on.

Talk about subtle details... notice the ironed crease in Jack's newer jeans, in contrast to Ennis' more rumpled demin... Jack did really move up a notch or two economically, and it shows in the details. I also remember noticing that his parkas and vests got more expensive and newer while Ennis' coats were worn and worn and worn.
thanks for the picture.
David:
Oh most definitely! You really see the economic gap widen between Jack and Ennis through out the movie. Jacks new jeans are a good example. He also has several different cowboy hats, all in great shape, unlike the well worn ones Ennis has. Jack always has a new pickup truck. Ennis has an old beat up one.
Yup, the Twists are doing just fine. But I'm sure Jack would give up every dime to live with Ennis in a shack. :-\
