"U" is untouchable
« Reply #7861 on: October 18, 2006, 03:35:07 pm »
"It was definitely an affair to remember, complete with the obligatory first full-fledged, if brief, sex scene, accompanied by several moments of ardent, soulful stares and a final self-sacrificing moment in which Jack drives away from the love of his life.  Those well-wrought scenes built the foundation of the remaining film by arresting our attention to the untouchable desire Ennis and Jack feel during the long droughts in their romance."

Up the mountains and down the valleys, all over Wyoming, went Jack and Ennis - looking for something they had already found.

A zest-driven Jack red-lined it all the way from Texas to Wyoming for the four-year reunion with Ennis.

Ennis was careful not to arouse suspicion; but didn't hesitate to arouse Jack.

"B" is beast

 But in the course of an early 1960s summer herding sheep on an isolated Wyoming mountain, they find themselves growing closer and closer and … yes, on Brokeback Mountain they make the beast with two broken backs.   Lasso Me Tender
