Yes, that's "Ice" w/ a capital "I"!  An established and often mentioned 'movie connection' to BBM is "The Ice Storm".  Y?  Because, like BBM, it was directed by award-winning director Ang Lee (1997).


=aside= BBM 411
For more movie connections to Brokeback Mountain, U can go to IMDB's BBM, which has an entire section so designated.  The first film connection is "The Ice Storm"!

When Ennis felt that his guts were being pulled out a yard at a time, that would include his jejunum, a section of the small intestine.

Some of the scenes were filmed in La Mesilla, NM; most likely Ennis' flashback about Earl's death.   :'(

“He pressed his face into the fabric and breathed in slowly through his mouth and nose, hoping for the faintest smoke and mountain sage and salty sweet stink of Jack.”
