Another Deleted scene?

Also now I'm wondering what that blue thing or shadow in the lower right hand corner of the first picture is. It looks vaguely like it's supposed to be reminiscent of Jack's blue shirt that Ennis has in his bag, as if something in there already reflects Jack, - and I can't see what it's supposed to be.

To me it looks like another person with blue clothing. Like an arm. I think it can't be a part of the truck, because the truck would have been inside the cementary then.
Maybe it's not only a deleted scene, but an outtake from a deleted scene, where someone from the crew was visible in the camera's range of vision.
Am I the only one who thinks Ennis looks somehow different in the first picture? Too young and ...?? Can't put my finger on it.

I've heard about the hippie scene, but I haven't seen the script of it (I only have the 2005 script in the story-to-screenplay book), what do they say?

It's wuite some time since I read that - and I don't have it to re-read. But I recall that the hippie leader indicated that he thinks Ennis is too tense and hung up, and that Jack afterwards comments to Ennis that he is well hung up. (Swear to God I don't know why I remember that, particularly. Hell, yes I do..... :blush: )

This makes sense. Otherwise it would just be too strange within the context of the film that someone with a blue shirt would happen to be standing in the cemetary out in the middle of nowhere. If it'd been an altogether other type of film, it could have been some sort of vision of Jack or solidified memory that Ennis was having. But I can't see anyone associated with our film even contemplating that kind of thing.
Unless it's Jack's mother......
Anyway I agree that Ennis looks surprisingly young in the first pic. Another indication why the scene was not included in the final film, perhaps.

I'd never heard that before! Wow. That would be a little jarring in the movie, because there's no other lines remotely like it. (Do they ever allude verbally to anything sexual, at least after TS1, aside from Jack's "high-altitude fucks"?)
It would fit right into the story, though.
dot-matrix:
I thought the blue-thing in that first photo was the edge of a granite tombstone. It is after all a cemetary and I assume the Twists haven't always been down on their luck. Maybe ?
Front-Ranger:
Yes, I can think of a coupla instances, Katherine. There's the time when Ennis says, "I like doin it with women, yeah, but Jesus H., ain't nothin' like this."
Is it safe for me to bring up the "wrang it out" line, also by Ennis?
And then there's "You and Lureen, is it normal and all?" also by Ennis. That's from the movie.
Not trusting my memory any more, I drug out my version of the story this time to get the quotes right!
To me, they seem like sexual references, altho I suppose they could fall in the category of innuendo. But since they're from Ennis, I guess that's about as blatant as we're going a get. Not like Jack, he's pretty blunt about the HAFs.
