"P" is posse

Aguirre was a one-man posse, using the excuse of Uncle Harold's illness to spy on Ennis and Jack, not once but twice.

"T" is Titanic

"When it came time to design the poster for the film, [co-producer James] Schamus didn't research posters of famous Westerns for ideas.  He looked at the posters of the 50 most romantic movies ever made.  'If you look at our poster,' he says, 'you can see traces of our inspiration, Titanic.'"


=milestone= 8,000 posts!

There was an undercurrent of sexuality in Jack and Ennis's early scenes.

"W" is well-lit

"[Ang] Lee remembers shooting the scene in which Ennis and Jack (played by Jake Gyllenhaal) explored their first taste of sexuality in a tent under the twilight.  'It was well-lit, not like the way you saw in the film,' he says.  'I was right there, very close, next to the camera....'"

By the end of the film, Ennis was xisting on memories and dreams.
