The Lake Scene argument is notable for its vehemence.

"W" is wished

Jack wished for his ashes to be buried on Brokeback Mountain, might be "where bluebirds sing, and there's a whisky spring".
Det ensomme liv under åben himmel og de rå men smukke omgivelser danner langsomt rammen om en ømhed mellem de to mænd.
The lonely life in the open air and those rough but beautiful surroundings slowly create a tenderness between the two men.

"X" is xpresses

"The spareness of the composition, wherein a man, a horse and the yawning skies of Wyoming might be all that fills the screen, suggests a bygone age, and when one character xpresses the hope that "the army don't get me", you have to correct your initial instinct: it's not the Civil War he's referring to but the Vietnam War."
-- Anthony Quinn, The Independent  [review]

Ennis and Jack prefer the zigzaggeries of mountain travel to the zigzaggeries of being together in civilization.

"A" is Aguirre's

Jack:  "Got to tell you, friend, maybe somebody seen us that summer.  I was back there the next June, thinkin' about goin' back -- I didn't, lit out for Texas instead -- and Joe Aguirre's in the office and he says to me, he says, 'You boys found a way to make the time pass up there, didn't you,' and I give him a look, but when I went out I seen he had a big-ass pair a binoculars hangin' off his rearview."  [story]

After eating dinners on the mountain, Ennis and Jack sat around and chewed the fat.
