Right.
--- Quote ---I've always felt like if you turn the movie off before Jack suggests the cow and calf operation, it is a fairly happy movie (at least as far as the Jack-Ennis story line goes... I guess not for the wives). I actually do this a lot. It's one reason why I've probably seen the first half of the movie twice as many times as the second half.

Good idea, A! For when you want to watch a/the movie, but you want to come out of it cheerful rather than sad. Which is often the case for me (I avoid movies that I know are going to be brutally depressing, but of course for the most part BBM is an exception).
Anyway, that is definitely the movie's turning point. I remember sitting in theaters thinking, "It should just end here. It should just end here." And also, somehow thinking each time that it would magically end differently.
