The logos for Greyhound and Coca-Cola appear in the scene where Cassie confronts Ennis at the bus station.

Jack's proposal to Ennis of the little cow and calf operation was met with negativism.

"O" is opera

Now that Annie Proulx's short story Brokeback Mountain  is being turned into an opera, Andrew Druckenbrod, the classical music critic for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, has opined that he has "a sinking feeling" that Charles Wuorinen may not be the right composer for the project.

Alma's accusations of Ennis's cavorting with Jack Twist propelled the argument towards violence.

After years of silence, when Alma finally accuses Ennis of cavorting with Jack Nasty, he responds  "Don't mean nothin'."

INT:  OUTSIDE LIGHTNING FLAT:  WYOMING:  TWIST HOMESTEAD:  HOUSE: 
KITCHEN:  DAY:  1982:

ENNIS is back downstairs, his hat in his hand, standing in
the kitchen.

JACK'S MOTHER places the two shirts in a paper sack for
ENNIS.

JOHN TWIST still sits at the table, stiff and angry as ever.

                            JOHN TWIST
               Tell you what, we got a family plot and
               he's goin' in it.

ENNIS, resigned to this fact, nods at the old man as if he
understands.

Alma let out a terrific cry at Ennis's violent reaction to her accusation that he was cavorting with Jack Twist.

"U" is unbearableness
« Reply #18219 on: October 20, 2008, 07:00:24 pm »
Jack told Ennis about the unbearableness of being apart from him: "Tell you what... truth is, sometimes I miss you so much I can hardly stand it."; Ennis, however, was unresponsive.
