"V" is velvety

When Ennis was at home he mostly drank beer, but on his vacations with Jack he indulged in the velvety taste of Old Rose.

While wetting his whistle with whiskey, Jack came within a whisker of telling Ennis the truth about Randall.

"X" is xtroversion

Whiskey helps reduce Ennis's inhibitions, making him less introspective and more receptive to Jack's xtroversion.

Ennis was hell on wheels as he tried to beat the daylights out of the biker.

Very flashy round announcement.

[A MARCHING BAND strikes up a tinny, slightly off-key rendition of "THE BATTLE HYMN OF THE REPUBLIC."
ALMA JR. crawls onto her daddy's lap.]

From the BBM 2003 screenplay.

Ennis takes offense at the drunken bikers' debasement of women in the presence of his two little girls.

"E" is exploding

Ennis:  (not confrontational) "You boys wanna keep it down?  I got two little girls here."
Biker#1:  "Fuck you!"
Indignant, they glare at Ennis, as the first of the fireworks sheets into the sky, exploding in air in sync with the verse, "...bombs bursting in air...", beginning the show.   [2003 screenplay]

WE SEE other Riverton citizens setting up, a few assorted rowdies drinking beer, families, couples relaxing near the DEL MAR FAMILY. Other children with their parents play nearby.

ENNIS
We should move closer.

Let's don't, Francine'll get scared. [2004 Screenplay]
