"Wow Jane, I agree completely with ever'thing you just wrote!"
"You are hunnerd percent right"
"exactly what I was gonna say, you took the words right off my computer screen! Damn you JT!"
??? ;D ;D
PS: I still stand by ever word I wrote... not sure why you guys can't see this logic like I do. ???

What's funny, Jane, is that I DO think a lot of people agree with much of what you say. As for me, I know of only one other person here whose views are consistently very close to mine, a couple more whose views overlap mine quite a bit, and maybe a couple of others with whom I have some views in common, but not all.
And then there's a whole bunch of people whose views are diametrically opposed to mine on a lot of issues! You're probably one of them, Jane, judging from the debates we've had, but I think you've got plenty of company on your "side" (so to speak -- not that we're taking sides, exactly! :)).
As far as I can tell, the only thing that seems particularly unusual about your views is that you see Ennis acknowledging that he is gay early on, but not acknowledging it's love until the end. Seems to me that most people either feel it's both early on, or it's both at the end. So yours is a different, I think. That said, I think you'll find plenty of agreement with you on both points (just not necessarily from the same people).

Well, in my unending quest to pin down every nuance of this film I now believe both of those seemingly contradictory views.
yeah, all those rainbow questionnaires were great, weren't they? Here are the links to the latest responses to each questionnaire.
