oe Agguire told Jack what the responsibilities of the herder were: "Eat your supper, breakfast in camp, but you sleep with the sheep, hundred percent, no fire, don't leave no sign."

"T" is transcendence

ames Kendrick of QNetwork Entertainment Portal wrote:

"Director Ang Lee (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) draws deep from the currents already running through the Western, using Mexican cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto's exquisitely wrought vistas to suggest transcendence in a world of repression and doubt. Against that backdrop, Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhall give the kind of performances that take a story from a conceit to something that truly gets into your heart. Gyllenhall is the more boyish of the two, full of optimism and therefore more overtly wounded when he runs up against the walls that hold him in. Ledger, in a truly stand-out role, appears at first to be stuck in a rut of coarse mumbling, but as the film progresses, we begin to see fine nuances in his downcast eyes and minimalist speech, ranging from a fierce sense of dignity to an ultimate level of tortured heartbreak."

Next up is letter .

Each post will begin with a word that starts with
the letter "K" and, as usual, include an unplayed word.



Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana co-wrote
the Oscar-winning screenplay for Brokeback Mountain.

McMurtry uses a Hermes 3000 typewriter for scriptwriting,
while Ossana prefers using a computer.  We're going to have the "K"
from her computer keyboard assist us with this round, so please
be sure to include the following symbol at the beginning of your post:

"A" is Adshead

im Olsen and John Adshead worked as key grips on the film Brokeback Mountain.

From IMDb:  The key grip works closely with the director of photography and the gaffer to sculpt the desired look of a film by diffusing and cutting the light. The key grip is also in charge of camera movement whether on a dolly, camera crane or mounted on the hood or bumper of a vehicle.
