Artiste:
How did Jack's father know where Brokeback Mountain is?

1. Jack confided to his father and/or mother??

2. Or is it something else; it came from ANOTHER source??

As this became evident in another who answered one of my threads,
pray that this will be more elaborated with you all.

Hugs to all!

I suppose he got around. Brokeback was supposedly a part of the Grand Tetons so if he ever went hunting, fishing or something it's highly likely he would've known about the place. Also I don't think the mountain itself was exactly a secret.

Artiste:
Thanks opinionista!

Glad that you mention that Brokeback is supposed to be a part of the Grand Tetons, in the USA!!
I had forgotten that! What a grand place, nature there!!

A former friend, penpal, lived there; he was gay; he was murdered, unfortunately! We do not know who killed him (we can only guess). (It was likely what we think about Jack...Twist, may I say!! Badly... horrible it was!!)
He was a hunting guide for bears! Even moose came to feed with his horses on his farm/place. Had great photos of that! And those Grand Tetons (french words meaning big tits, right word is breasts) are great, as they are two tops beside each other!! Wonder if part of those were in the movie... I think so... as parts, even if the film was made in Altberta, Canada which is grand there with the Rockies too!! I have forgotten if he hunted for elk?? Why did Annie include elk?

Yes, that hunting there is still somewhat a secret, I think!!??

But was that how by word of mouth from hunters that Jack's father got to know?? Maybe?

I think it is something else, or could be so??

You mention a good source!! Potential one!!

Await your news,

Hugs!

I am sure Jack mentioned to his parents about Brokeback Mountain. He worked there two summers, it would have come up in casual conversation...and remember, his mother knew where he was working, cause she sent Aquirre up there with the message about Uncle Harold!!

Artiste:
Thanks injest!

You are right that Jack's parents knew where Brokeback Mountain was; at least, the mother did as you say since she communicates to her son via his boss.

The mother loved her son... as she communicated that Jack's uncle was not well!! She must have told her husband: Mr. Twist, where Brokeback mountain was!! Surely, that in those days... as she continued to live with her husband!!

Or did Jack tell both parents?? Likely so?? All those years?? 20??

This (the Uncle not being well and well afterwards) shows drama somehow!! For the future too??
And there is a twist to the story already!! Jack's and Ennis' boss sees them, from away, Ennis and Jack playing together happîly and kissing!! Wow! Wow!

Did Jack's boss tell that to Jack's mother?? And/or father?? About two men kissing??

Awaiting your news,
