Ennis' daughter Jenny is K.E. del Mar's youngest niece.

=comment=
Jenny would be K.E.'s youngest niece only if Ennis and K.E.'s married sister in Casper didn't have any daughters younger than Jenny.  Forgive my nit-picking....

"O" is obligatory

"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."
-- Justin Deimen, Urban Wire

"P" is perfunctorily

L.D. Newsome dimissed Jack perfunctorily most of the time.

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

"Q" is quashing

Ennis's making excuses was quashing Jack's hope for a sweet life.

=aside= Paul
Keep those "Q's" coming.

"R" is risen

Even though it was "nothing he’d done before" and "no instruction manual needed", Ennis had risen to the occasion in Tent Scene I.

"S" is separate

"Later, that dozy embrace solidified in his memory as the single moment of artless, charmed happiness in their separate and difficult lives."  [story]

"T" is trout

Jack and Ennis may have done a lot of "fishin'", but they never brought home a single trout.

"U" is utilize

Jack wanted to utilize the time he had to spend with Ennis to the fullest extent, but he never got "enough time -- never enough."

"Originally featured in the collection Close Range: Wyoming Stories by Annie Proulx, this brief and emotive piece is as beautifully rendered as any of the Pulitzer winner's best work.  At first read, this heartbreaking tale of the forbidden love between two male ranchers seems both too brief and too sparse to be adapted to film properly (as its mere 30 pages spans two decades).  But with a screenplay constructed by Pulitzer Prize-winner Larry McMurtry (Lonesome Dove) and the directorial genius of Oscar-winner Ang Lee (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), Brokeback Mountain is as much an accomplishment on the silver screen as it was on the page."

"W" is wanted

Ennis had wanted to be a sophomore because he felt the word carried a kind of distinction.
