Did Ennis Flirt?

When he's around Jack... early on and through the film... he wears his heart on his sleeve a little bit more than he seems to in other situations. But, only a little bit.

I agree about the 'despite himself'. And I like this description, like he really couldn't help himself to reveal that he was talking more to Jack than to anyone else.
It was a done deal, maybe as soon as Jack said 'nice to know you Ennis Del Mar'. :)

Another favorite moment! Yep, done deal.

I was reading a Brokback Trivia site yesterday and came accross this......
Director Ang Lee gave Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal copies of the book, "Farm Boys: Lives of Gay Men from the Rural Midwest", by Will Fellows, a book that had been mentioned by both Annie Proulx and Diana Ossana as an excellent reference source, to help them understand their characters. Noting what he learned from his reading, Gyllenhaal said, "I dont't think that these two characters even know what gay is"
Artiste:
So what does that mean Katie ?
And to you ?
