"M" is memorialize
« Reply #14110 on: July 17, 2007, 07:58:01 pm »
Jack showed parental concern and hunted for his parka while Lureen continued her own hunt for extra zeros at this abandoned house south of downtown Calgary. After looking at several possibilities, the filmmakers chose the house that suggested wealth.

If you are able to pry your eyes from Lureen's ever-expanding hairdo, note the wall decorations which incorporate mounted rodeo buckles. Undoubtedly, these are intended to memorialize a simpler and happier time in Jack's life. They seem to be to be very much out of place on the wall of mirrored foil wallpaper, just as Jack must have felt himself a stranger in that town, that job, that family, and that bed.

On his way to Jack's bedroom, Ennis walked past the newels supporting the railing at the top of the stairs.

"O" is orderliness

Orderliness was certainly a high priority in Jack's and Lureen's home - not so much Chez del Mar.

There is a pink Princess phone in Lureen's pink bedroom next to a picture of the king and queen of the rodeo.

The apartment above the laundromat featured a hidden staircase that is just perfect for kissing.

"T" is trendy

The shag carpeting, velour furniture, white-painted brick and zebra rugs in the Twist house were considered to be trendy in the seventies but tacky in any other decade.

There was wall-to-wall carpeting underfoot in Jack and Lureen's adjoining living and dining rooms.

Ennis's residences were variably messy or spare.
