Taking Chances, by E. L. Van Hine and L.H. Nicoll
magicmountain:
I think maybe that Ennis was lashing out at the feared threat which had kept him and Jack apart -the threat that this man embodied.
And when he said the word "faggot" that put the tin hat on it. If Ellery hadn't been on hand he may have even ended up killing him in his rage.

I absolutely agree Jo. Faggot was just too much for him, sent him right off the deep end and I believe he would have killed him too.
I wonder how Ellery's back is :(

I need to find one of those websites that counts word utterances for the total number after that.

I found it!
PROFANITY 6 - 23 F-words, 3 sexual references, 9 scatological terms, 9 anatomical terms, 27 mild obscenities, 2 derogatory terms for homosexuals, name-calling (stupid), 11 religious profanities, 2 religious exclamations.
And here's part of the sex rating:
Two men hug and kiss passionately, and the wife of one of them sees them kissing. Two men kiss, they lie in a tent together (one man is bare-chested), and they hold and caress each other. Two bare-chested men wrestle and play fight, they end up on the ground, one on top of the other, and they kiss. Two bare-chested men lie in bed in a motel room holding each other (presumably after sex).
Somehow, it just takes all the fun out of it, doesn't it?

Perhaps. It does have one fuck and was rated PG-13.
Good memory, David!

Good grief Leslie, such debauchery on the screen, no wonder it was R rated. Its a wonder we didnt all end up with post traumatic stress disorder from seeing 2 bare chested men..kissing as well!! :o :o :o Whatever next. ::) ::) Do you think film directors live in the same century as us? Do they honestly think we are shocked by that? Ermmmmmmmmmmm, nope we want more lol. And as for hearing the word fuck....deary me, I need a brandy now...I dont even know what it means. ;) ;D :laugh:
