An Epiphany for Ennis?

<< < (2/2)

Brown Eyes:
Wow!  That was an amazing post Scott!  Thanks for that!

For what it's worth, I think Ennis has his epiphany (or maybe the first of several epiphanies) during the pie scene with Cassie.  I think that's the moment when he can begin to formulate the idea that he's a gay man in his head (I think he would be unable to articulate it outwardly... but I think it's becoming clearer for Ennis at least on a deeply personal level by that scene).  I think certain aspects of both the recent argument with Jack combined with certain things Cassie happens to say combine to form triggers that help Ennis begin to understand and/or accept himself.

I think the shirts are a continuation of this particular epiphany (that he's a gay man), but maybe more importantly and specifically, they're an outward sign of his grief and connected to the specific emotions involved in being in love with Jack.

        Simply amazing Scott no words suffice. It rather ties in to Bro Patricks revelations
