Yin and Yang: Ennis and Jack
Front-Ranger:

Brown Eyes:
That blue reflection really is a little spooky. It reminds me of all the talk about subtle forms of haunting that seem to occur following Jack's death... and seem particularly strong in the Lightning Flat scene. This kind of image also reminds me of the Classical Allusions concept of haunting.
Brown Eyes:
I just scanned through the entirety of this great old thread and I didn't notice this being discussed before (but forgive me if this has come up at some point in the past)...
But, is the yin and yang symbol the key to understanding Ennis's wacky pajamas here? ???
I've never understood why Ennis would wear such "loud" and almost deliberately "funny" pajamas (it just seems to be out of character).

Could be, Amanda!! I would not be surprised one bit! We know that Ang Lee did use costume to advance the story in his film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and so we could expect him to do the same here!!
Did you also notice that that spooky blue light is in the scene, just like in the last post you made way back when?? Cool!!
