"K" is KO'ing

The screenplay describes Ennis as KO'ing the drunk biker with a kick to the head.

When Jack and Ennis went off the cliff into the lake, that first step was a lulu.   ;D

"M" is missive

Ennis's missive sent in reply to Jack's first postcard was short on words but to the point: You bet.

After a summer of sitting unused, Jack's pickup truck needed some tinkering to become operational.

"Q" is quasi-lead

Pre-Oscar buzz on the category of best supporting actor:

"Jake Gyllenhaal, because of the support for the picture, is the spoiler. When you have a quasi-lead role in a supporting category, there can be a number of people that say, 'Wow, that was the biggest performance there.'"   [link]

"R" is racked

Scene:  Higgins Gift Shop {closed Sept. 11th}

In Linda's gift shop, the postcards were racked!  It made it easier for Ennis to not find what he was lookin' for: BBM.



=comments= Busy "B"'s
That was a "hot" summer Saturday hour with a half-dozen postz within 1 hour between 12 noon and 12:59 p.m.! ;D   

=aside= Sandala
We luv that '69 song by Gladys Knight & The Pips.
Motown!  "Get on down to the real Nitty Gritty!" 
We have it on c/d, album, single and 8-track. ;)

=aside= Meryl
U inadvertently mentioned British pop singer Lulu!
Her 1967 #1 song "To Sir With Love" was no "lulu"!
Maybe Ennis had Jack sing it 2 him in the tent/motel.
I know I have Dre sing it 2 me every night b4.......! :)

Jack used a five-cent stamp on his first postcard to Ennis.
