I'm intrigued by that ring he's wearing on his right hand. I couldn't find a clear picture of it. *looks expectantly at Mel* ;)
Shakesthecoffecan:
And what about the right on a chain that he is wearing around his neck? Maybe that is his mothers wedding band?

;D I am going to get the .avi file on a DVD next week or so, then I will be able to freeze it and look for you! :-*
Yeah, the ring on a chain (let me just check the ennisjack screencaps lol)......

Nah, can't get a clear enough picture of it... Nice idea that it's his mother's wedding band.....

OMG I love this movie.I have here!tv and I have sen it a bunch of times. I can not wait fot the dvd to come out. Maybe they will have deleted scenes.
I have read the whole thread and I have so many thoughts and everything but they are really jumbled.
Somebody ask me a question about the movie or what I thought so I can just answer one thing at a time.
I do not see this as a anit brokeback. I see it as a possibility in this day and age. Hopefully we have come a long way from the 1960's when it was not even talked about.
I thnk that Zach had leanings that way and knew about Shaun and maybe had "fantasies" about him so when they had the arguement in the car he was saying how HE (Zach) felt but lashed out at Shaun and turned it on him. Sort of like the guy at school who calls every one "fag" because he does not want anyone to know that he is. Make sense?

I assumed that Zach was projecting his personal difficulty with homosexuality onto Shaun as well.
Zach seemed to know a LOT about Shaun and his life well before Gabe even figured it all out.
I didn't see this as the Anti-Brokeback at all. I don't understand why both stories can't co-exist peacefully.
Michelle, I think you would like the '96 British film, "Get Real". It is along the lines of "Shelter", both movies are excellent.
