Ennis wanted to be better educated.  He drove to school in the old pickup with no heater, one windshield wiper, and bad tires, but without a transmission he couldn't get to his sophomore year.

"J" has been deleted.

A rather nice "J", if I say so myself, but played out of turn and deleted in accordance with the rules.

  • There's no reins on this one....
"K" is knuckleheaded
« Reply #16106 on: January 02, 2008, 03:03:14 pm »
Ennis thought Jack's idea of two men living together was a knuckleheaded scheme, so Jack had to settle for meeting up with his lover for a few weeks every year.

"M" is mistakes

Annie Proulx made very few "mistakes" in creating the Brokeback Mountain storyline.  However the screenplay writers had to add at least one year to the chronology to give Alma the years to be more than nineteen in the year leading up to her marriage to Kurt.
