"U" is untoward

The fact the boys could not spend their lives together had untoward emotional effects – particularly concerning Jack.

Proulx, McMurtry and Ossana Discuss Adapting “Brokeback Mountain

All three writers seemed to be thrilled with the final product, which was sensitively directed by Ang Lee. As McMurtry explained with what would appear to be his highest measure of praise, “It says what it needs to say and then it shuts up."

Ennis continued to follow zoic employment, but Jack preferred to stake his fortune with farm machinery, and the Newsomes.

Watching the flashback scene of Jack’s murder stirred abhorrent feelings within moviegoers.

"B" is beanpole

Alma Jr inherited Ennis's beanpole length, according to the story.

For the movie, they settled for a shorter, but greatly cute girl.
