lovable subtle details

Well, I've been an Ennis girl all the way. Couldn't help it back then any more than I can now. ;D
--- Quote ---Haha, yes, so I've noticed :D which probably means that not many details by now escaped your attention and I am probably repeating a lot/ reinventing the wheel here... but for us rookies it is quite hard having to read through hundreds of pages of brilliant posts in each topic before contributing something of our own... hope this makes sense?

Of course it makes sense! We all came here to express these thoughts/ideas/feelings, to share them with likeminded people. We needed this outlet.
Thus we understand when it's the same for you now. And there's no need to worry about repeating something. Enough space around these parts. Go ahead to your hearts content; some of us "oldies" enjoy following like I already said. We hope you found a home on the internet here. :)

First, I have to say I really, really love this site, and I allready read all is written "lovable subtle details".
Thanks a lot for this space, I love the movie as never before.
My english is not good enough but, please, be sweet with me.
I want to say this ( and I hope someone please answer and talk with me )
1. I love Jack´s mom at the end taking Ennis hand while she is putting the shirts in to the paper bag....
2. I could swear that the words that Jack said in the first take, out of Aguirre´s office is FUCK YOU. We can only see the movement of his lips.... I think he said that because he is a little angry with Ennis cold attitude.
3. In the tent scene, the first one, why Jack hit on the floor? I think is pain? Or he wants Ennis stop? Then I see Jack put his hand on Ennis hand, and then he tries to take both hands, Ennis and yours with the other, and then, they fall. I understand there is not only pain, but when I hear Jack in real pain.
My favorite part, all, but specially when Ennis is so so so happy "saying a thankfull prayer"
Thanks a lot. I would like to explain in a better way all I can feel.

Hi joandcruz! Welcome, you're with friends here! :)
I think in the tent scene when Jack hits the ground with his fist, that is a piece of fine acting on Jake's part. I think it's meant to show that, like sex can be, he's got both pleasure and pain.
Haven't noticed the part as they're walking out of Aguirre's office but you've given me another reason to go watch it again.
I think we are all in love with Jack's mom for being so kind to Ennis as she puts the shirts in the paper bag.
Stick around and talk away. We love talking about Brokeback!

Alright guys.... New victim joining here! 11 years later and still coming!
So, let me contribute to those LSDs here...
- When Jack comes back to the camp and complains about commuting and all, he checks on the (coffee?) pot with the back of his hand. Like they way he does it!
- After Jack pisses and comes back to the fire where Ennis is enjoying his meal ("mm.. mmm.." :)), he does that sexy "snatch"(?) at his belt buckle, sits down and starts to position his foot into the fire, then next to it, then into the fire again - love his whole movements at that point. I always can't get my eyes off that foot! And his face - just gorgeous...
- LOVE the way Jack holds Ennis' neck at his "surprise" visit after the divorce notice - as if he's holding something really precious (he really does...). And also love how happy Ennis is at seeing Jack and how he just can't stop grinning... for a few moments just too long in view of the conversation they actually have... :'(
- Upon Jack's kick-ass speech towards his father-in-law at Thanksgiving dinner, Bobbie sits straight up - very nicely done!
- The way Ennis checks whether the mailbox "do look right" at the end. Same old Ennis, making sure everything is proper and right... i'm not sure whether i should smile or cry here...
- Lastly, can't get enough of the way Ennis and Jack talk to each other! Even when they are angry or frustrated, the bond i feel in the way they talk to each other is just unbreakable. They are made for each other, bonded SO deeply, no matter what they say. Favorite lines:
"What happened, Ennis?" (after the bear)
"Ennis! Just quit you hammering and get iiin here!" (Stop torturing me with your hammering! *melt*)
"What are you doing here, huh?" (surprise meeting after the divorce notice)
"Yep, you're a real thinker there! Goddamn! Jack Fuckin' Twist... He got it all figured out, ain't he?" (Ennis is a bit angry, but for me it sounds really loving how he says it all. Kind of patronizing Jack for having said something quite naive.)
"Lighten up on me, Jack"
"Damn you, Ennis" - that one was - while quite in pain - just so loving... *melt*
Hope somebody could engage with me in some talking, cause i can't get over this movie for 2 weeks now and need some comfort, please :'(
