"C" is commitments
« Reply #15260 on: October 07, 2007, 11:47:35 pm »
At the Motel Siesta Ennis reminded Jack of their family commitments:  "...Jack, I built a life up in them years.  Love my little girls.  Alma?  It ain't her fault.  You got your baby and wife, that place in Texas."

"E" is enthusiastic
« Reply #15262 on: October 08, 2007, 05:52:08 pm »
Jack and Ennis had to be less enthusiastic about each other while in town - where just a vehicle driving by could make Ennis feel paranoid - especially after his fishin' buddy from Texas had just asked about him all over Riverton.

The dozy embrace was easily one of Jack's fondest memories.

Ennis had to settle for delayed gratification when he wasn't with Jack.

"H" is histrionic

Brokeback Mountain, The Opera!
 ......
And the combination of material, medium and music seemed wildly improbable: a spare short story by Annie Proulx about inarticulate Wyoming sheepherders — which, granted, had been made into a film that was very compelling but was far from histrionic — translated into the most histrionic of art forms? With a composer who's one of America's last major unrepentant modernists?

After coming down from the mountain, Jack and Ennis parted inarticulately.

"L" is lusting

Ennis thought their lusting for each other would get them killed.

"M" is monotonous

Jack and Ennis found a way to perk up their monotonous sheepherding jobs on Brokeback Mountain.

"N" is nadir

For some, the post-divorce misunderstanding was the nadir in their relationship.
