And the scene in general strikes me as sort of a bookend to Ennis getting married -- it's like a wedding that Aguirre is performing. ("Do you, Jack, promise to eat your breakfast and dinner in the camp, but sleep with the sheep 100 percent? ... And do you, Ennis, promise to be at the bridge every Friday at noon for supplies? (**hands Ennis watch/ring **) Then by the powers vested in me, I now pronounce you a pair of deuces. You may get the hell out of my office.")

Yikes -- I am repeating myself! Though I doubt that's the first time I've said pretty much the same thing twice on the same thread.
BBM-Cat:
Just watched BBM again this evening on HBO....I don't know if this one has been mentioned
Dozy embrace = Ennis embracing Jack in life
Shirts in trailer = Ennis embracing Jack in death
Either way - can't get thru either of those parts without many tears

Was it when Ennis said his dad thought all rodeo cowboys was f**k-ups, looked down at his cup of whiskey, and then Jack said the hell they are, and "danced"?

I agree totally, that is perfect!!!!
Oh by the way, is there a conscous on when the dozy embrace happened.?
I think it happened after the mixed up sheep, when they were going back to camp and Ennis had such a look of love on his face while he was teasing Jack about the harmonica.. I think the dozy embrace happened soon after the they left the sheep, they went back to camp to eat, and then Ennis left to sheep.
And maybe soon before the snowstorm on the mountain.
Front-Ranger:
Scene 147, the last scene in which we see Jack (where he was attacked and killed with a tire iron, but possibly in Ennis's imagination) aside from the dozy embrace flashback, is a bookend to what scene??
