"S" is scrounge

Ennis was never lucky in finding good work; he had to scrounge his whole life for any available job.

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

The tables were turned at Thanksgiving dinner when Jack finally stood up to L.D.

"U" is undoubtedly

"Brokeback Mountain  functions as the debut of several former teen stars blossoming into sophisticated actors.  Ledger takes his role and runs with it, soaring beyond the simplistic realms of his past teen pop projects Ten Things I Hate About You  and A Knight's Tale.  Ledger's is undoubtedly the breakthrough role of the film."

"V" is veteran

By the time of his reunion with Ennis, Jack Twist was a veteran bullrider on the rodeo circuit, and he had the injuries to prove it.

Tian Yi, a Chinese blogger, writes via Global Voices about the big Hollywood productions Memoir of A Geisha  and Brokeback Mountain, movies that are currently having tough times getting into China’s movie theaters:

"Memoir of A Geisha  is not the only film slammed by Chinese censors.  Brokeback Mountain, the gay cowboy love story that is enjoying unending accolades in the American film award season, is reported to also have been banned.  That was after the director Ang Lee just praised Asia for having a more open mind about sexuality."

"I think we had a great year in entertainment as far as we go, and I thought for once we were going to be taken seriously, with Brokeback Mountain being nominated, and TransAmerica, and Philip Seymour Hoffman. It was, like, the Year of the Gay in the Oscars. But then we still didn’t get it, which kind of makes me wonder. The picture of the year was still not given to us. I don’t know what that means. Who knows? Maybe people liked Crash better than Brokeback Mountain. You still have to think: was there a conspiracy?"    Zenger's Newsmagazine

Jack and Ennis were addling their brains with whiskey.
