Daniel:
Well, maybe we can put more details into the Chez Tremblay performance...
serious crayons:
Finally, something we can really agree on, Diane! :)
One of the things that I love about BBM is that both the emotional part of the relationship and the sexual part of the relationship are extremely compelling. Most movies, it seems like one or the other (or neither) might be powerful, but in this case both are breathtaking.

Agreed. But I would love to have seen even more of the emotion, more loving glances, embraces & even slight touches - a LOVE affair that even the most resistant viewer could not deny.
serious crayons:
Me too! Of course, the MOST resistant viewer wants no love or sex at all, and probably bolted during the first tent scene. But we can do without them.
You'd think Ang could at the very least have allowed a few more "loving glances, embraces & even slight touches" -- like the post-coyote-shooting pushes, or the post-Earl-story cheek caressing -- without violating his damnable code of restraint.

I would have also enjoyed seeing more overt affection ... especially from Ennis.
You will have to bear with me when I quote from the story, but I love Annie's descriptions. I would have loved to have seen this in the film! This would have been after the "sometime I miss you so much" dialogue:
Jack slid his cold hands between Ennis' legs .... and they rolled down into the dirt. One thing that never changed: the brilliant charge of their infrequent couplings .....
Note: I did leave out some dialogue. But these lines were my favorite and summarized brilliantly Jack and Ennis' relationship ... even at the end.
