"H" is homestead

Ennis's visited Jack's parents at the family homestead, to see if he could grant Jack his last wish:  to have his ashes spread on Brokeback Mountain.
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.

"I" is insides

"Ledger's magnificent performance is an acting miracle. He seems to tear it from his insides. Ledger doesn't just know how Ennis moves, speaks and listens; he knows how he breathes. To see him inhale the scent of a shirt hanging in Jack's closet is to take measure of the pain of love lost."  Peter Travis of Rolling Stone

Jack Twist lovingly stroked the side of Ennis' face after Ennis told him of the tough old dead bird.

"M" is monumental

As Ennis stood against the fireworks, he was the epitome of monumental loneliness and frustration.

An excerpt from Ang Lee's acceptance speech upon being presented with the Academy Award for Achievement in Direction for "Brokeback Mountain":

"Wow. I wish I knew how to quit you.  First of all, i want to thank two people who don't even exist.  Or I should say, they do exist, because of the imagination of Annie Proulx and the artistry of Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana.  Their names are Ennis and Jack.  And they taught all of us who made "Brokeback Mountain" so much about not just all the gay men and women whose love is denied by society but, just as important, the greatness of love itself."

Ennis and Jack's first night of rough sex gradually turned into tenderness and playful physical contact.
