"R" is revolved

On Brokeback Mountain, it seemed to Jack and Ennis that the world revolved around them:  "...they owned the world and nothing seemed wrong".

"T" is touchingly

Ennis's grief at his realization of how much Jack loved him is touchingly illustrated when he embraces the shirts in that small closet in the Twist home.

"U" is underplayed

Once he realized that he had misinterpreted Ennis's postcard about the divorce, Jack underplayed his heartbreak and simply said, "...I'll see you next month, then."

"X" is x-Wyomingite

A couple of times a year, Jack, an x-Wyomingite himself, readily made 14-hour drives from Texas to Wyoming to be with Ennis.

The proper attire for the fashionable Western head would be the venerable cowboy hat.

"B" is brim

An unfinished brim is less expensive than bound and more for an everyday-do-yer-work type Cowboy Hat.  Cowboy Hat Facts
