"W" is wording

Jack's choice of wording of his postcards to Ennis was meant to be misleading to anyone else who saw them.

"A" is audibility

The audibility of Ennis's threats to the bikers was evident even above the noise of the fireworks.

"B" is bleed

Jack saw fit to offer assistance in the form of his shirt sleeve after he accidentally made Ennis's nose bleed.

"C" is chasing

Jack could see the possibility of his dream becoming reality, but Ennis thought he was just chasing rainbows.

"D" is dogmatic

Jack had heard one too many of L.D.'s dogmatic pronouncements when he decided to stand up to him at Thanksgiving.

Lureen saw an eyefilling sight when she laid her eyes on the handsome cowboy holding her dusty red hat.

"F" is ferocity
« Reply #18507 on: December 05, 2008, 01:06:46 am »
"Crammed together -- and tipsy -- in a tent one night, Jack absent-mindedly draws Ennis’ arm around him as he sleeps. Ennis reacts so violently to this advance it’s as if he’s fending off a chemical reaction in himself, a combustive brew of internal paradox that propels him to fight off Jack’s touch with a ferocity equaled by how frantically he unlatches his own belt buckle and shoves Jack to the ground."

"G" is gloom

Because Ennis was out of touch with his emotions, he didn't realize until much later the extent of the gloom he was feeling about having to leave Brokeback.

"H" is healing

Jack tried using his healing touch with Ennis on several occasions; on several occasions, Ennis resisted.
