The mysterious "I love you" and other nearly indiscernible moments
Daphne7661:
I tried listening to the one line of the reunion scene which has confounded me --
What does Ennis say at the end of the kissing during the reunion scene just after the nuzzle and just before he heads back up the stairs to the apartment??!!
It sounds like he says, "Hey, I gotta go...." Just like he says to Jack in the flashback scene. It's like one of those mirrored lines throughout the film.
It's a tough line to hear because a rather hearty Gustavo guitar chord is strung right at the same moment as Heath delivers Ennis' line......
Someone may want to check it out and let me know if I'm right....

I think he says "hey, c'mere." Someone posted an audio clip of it in which it was more distinct. I'm not at home now, but I will look later to see if I have it saved somewhere. It's still a mirror, because he says "hey, c'mere" to Alma a couple of times.

I've always heard "later", followed by "c'mere". As in 'we'll continue this later, but for now, come upstairs and meet my wife'. But I hear what I want to hear, so take that with a large grain of salt!

Hi Y'all, I am so happy. In the airport waiting for my plane to go home from the San Francisco BBM adventure, I suddenly had this great idea for how to use the plane time - I paid $9.95 for about half an hour of airport internet access (hey - what's $9.95 after the hundreds I just paid for this trip?), and downloaded various threads that I've been eager to read, but hadn't gotten to yet, like this one, so that I could catch up on them on the plane. So you all are with me on the plane. I also have the full screen BBM DVD in my laptop, and have been watching/listening to the scenes you all are talking about here. Here's my experience:
I just watched the "I love you" scene about 10 times, and definitely see the mouth twitch, twitch, twitch that could be it. I couldn't hear it though. I will watch it again in a a quieter place. I couldn't hear or see the "Oh Jack."
The "fuck me, fuck me" I absolutely heard, clear as a bell. It goes like this: Ennis spits in his hand, groans as he enters Jack, Jack groans and then says, "fuck me, fuck me." I have watched this scene a time or two hundred, and never heard it til now, but now I can't NOT hear it. I still can't see the handholding/reach around/cylinder, my DVD is way too dark.
The wedding ring is easy to see in the motel scene on the full screen version. In fact, it's why I bought the full screen version, because someone used that as an example of how much more of the edge of scenes you could see in it.
I have always been able to hear the first "c'mere" of the reunion scene, before the kiss (and the subtitles say it). The apres-kiss "c'mere" and "later," I can kind of hear them, but I don't see Ennis's mouth move.
I just spent an hour and fifteen minutes on this one thread - and the important videographic research. :) Why do we care so much? Who are we?

naw, no grains of salt needed here, I hear and interpret exactly the same way as you do W!
