Things that aren't directly connected to BBM and yet are somehow Brokieish

Oh wow! That's Ennis. With another Cassie. And he's still not much fun, totally not caring, immersed in wistful thoughts and probably rather wishing she'd be gone.

Almost all of the photos are Brokieish. The one you posted and the one with the woman (Alma!) at the kitchen-sink stand out as the most Brokieish to me.
The interior design of the indoor photos could be taken right out of our movie. Everything looks cheap, old and trailer-ish. The mood is bleak and the people look so very damned lonely, even when they're in company. I think it's the loneliness more than anything that makes the photos Brokieish.

Another thing the photos have in common with BBM is that they are photographs but look like paintings. Just like the interior scenes of the Twist farm look like (Vermeer) paintings.

Great find, Katherine! :)

Thanks, Chrissi! And those are good points, both of the photo/painting look and of the Vermeer aspect to the Twist farm.

In particular, this reminded me of the night Ennis didn't want to go out with the fire and brimstone crowd.

I also think the prints on the wall, especially the mountainous one above New Cassie on the couch, are Brokieish.

Oh no! Just think of all the words of wisdom you might have missed!  :P   :-X   :laugh:

If it's a fire and brimstone crowd, they're probably better off staying home and watching ME-TV.  ;D

ah, the memories are coming back.
