lovable subtle details
Ellemeno:
I just saw the button - how did I miss that? I've always been tuned in to Jack's hand on Ennis's shirt there, and Ennis's yummy neck exposed.
What you alll are calling the wink - I see that differently. I see it as a facial tic, that a big smile like that is so rare on Ennis's face, that it's like a spasm of rustiness, his muscles are so unused to that position.

I can buy the facia tic. there is also one when Ennis and jack are asleep in the final tent scene.
Brown Eyes:
I thought the wink was a tic at first too. But, here's my advice. Sit really close to the screen and you'll see that it really does seem like a deliberate wink. When you're close enough you can see how exaggerated the wink is. And, I do think Jack acknowleges it... with that smile he can't contain even as he's trying to get serious and starts picking on his beer bottle.
Front-Ranger:
I love the way Jack opens up the bottle of whiskey and pours a generous shot into Ennis's tin cup before helping himself. And the way Ennis says "thank you" as if he were at Sunday dinner at his grandma's house. :)
nakymaton:
I love the way they go from using cups to just sharing the same bottle before they start having sex. We see the blue cups again while Ennis and Jack are camping, but I don't think we ever see them drinking from them.
(Not even coffee.)
