Geez, I'm learning something new about this film all the time.
This is probably old news to most of you here, but I had never heard about this.
Man.... do I ever feel behind the times here...

It was either a different take or the scene we see extended.

RE: deleted scene.
The short story has this paragraph:
"Bumping down the washboard road Ennis passed the country cemetery fenced with sagging sheep wire, a tiny fenced square on the welling prairie, a few graves bright with plastic flowers, and didn't want to know Jack was going in there, to be buried on the grieving plain."
Seems like Ennis visited the cemetery on the grieving plain.
I just repeatedly reviewed the DVD and the scene looks like Ennis might have walked there from the Twist house and looked back up at the window of Jack's bedroom. The trees, landscape, bits of buildings and clouds look the same as the Twist house exterior shot. Including this scene might have made the movie peak too early, with the shirts still in the bag.
About the director's cut:
I would be more eager to have a director's cut of the film if I knew that Ang Lee had had to bow to pressure to edit scenes, etc. It seems he had free creative reign on the project, and he certainly has been faithful to the wrotten words.
But boy does a big part of me want to see/hear every thing filmed for the movie. Every frame, every sound byte, every bit of music ever considered. Not practical, but a nice collection of stuff would get me to purchase a third DVD of Brokeback. My fav version right now is the full screen disc. More, more, more - please.

LauraGigs:
There are also these two:
LauraGigs:
The second one may be when Cassie had been "leaving word with Steve", and Steve was passing this along to Ennis.
The first one looks to be earlier in the film, but could be anything.
In any case, I think what we all mean when we clamour for deleted scenes is to at least have them as separate extra features on a new DVD, not a re-cut of the film . . .
SFEnnisSF:
We don't see this scene either. This must be right when Jack leaves Aguirre's trailer (after he's told to 'get the hell out')...
