According to the DVD subtitles, during the mock bull ride performed for Ennis, Jack exclaims, "He’s kickin’ me to high heaven, but he don’t jackboard me!"

At their last departing, Jack complains to Ennis that he has languished long enough and that he's no longer content with the status quo.

"M" is motivated

The thought of being with Ennis kept Jack motivated enough to drive fourteen hours to see him.

From what language was the DVD translating?

"N" is natable

In a deleted scene, Jack and Ennis stopped what they were doing to come to the aid of a trio of hippies who discovered that their VW bus was not natable.

Jake Gyllenhaal's plain old English.  :)
I think I agree with whomever prepared the
subtitles.  To me, it sounds like Jake said
"jackboard," not "dashboard."

"R" is reconsiders
« Reply #14276 on: July 31, 2007, 03:18:50 pm »
At first, Ennis uses the roundup over near the Tetons as an excuse not to attend Alma Jr. and Kurt's wedding.  Then, after seeing the look of disappointment on his daughter's face, he reconsiders, telling her, "You know what?  They can find themselves another cowboy."

"T" is traveler

Jack was a lonesome traveler driving between Texas and Wyoming, but getting to be with Ennis made the journey worth it.

=aside= Paul, Meryl, and Clarissa
Glad you had such a wonderful journey not to mention a hayless hayride that went haywire.

"U" is unspecified

It took years, but Alma finally found the drive she needed to divorce Ennis and get on with her life.  She married Monroe, became pregnant, and gave birth to her third child, a baby of an unspecified gender.
