Where is the hay fun in the Brokeback Mountain film?
Artiste:
Thanks Phillip Dampier!
Your details in your comment are very interesting!!
I never did write the words ranch hands, but always used the word cowboy(s), to describe
either Ennis and/or Jack, in the Brokeback Mountain film!! You are waking me up with the expression: ranch hands!! And did Annie ever used the word cowboy in the story?
Annie did set Jack in the rodeo, so so Jack is then a cowboy? Most rodeo men consider themselves ranch hands or cowboys??
Please explain this too:
Lee managed to convince them by literally putting down fake rubber mats covered with grass where the sheep congregated...
...
Those rubber mats covered with grass, they were for the wild sheep only??
Didn't Lee use both wild and domestic sheep?? But had to separate them,
as that was/is my impression I made somehow in order Lee did not to affect either kinds of sheep with potential deseases??
As far as digital sheep, yes that was made, and some images of that were added in some scenes (HOW MANY?? Even one lake was taken out and fake sheep by digital (computorized) drawings were added instead to that area as a grassy spot for sheep, did you know?? And that digital work, it was made in Canada, by a co.; you know which one?? If you want to see that which is highly interesting, you will get this internet clip, as I had found such before someone gave it to me on one of my threads. But I do not know if any other such or similar clips exists, do you?? Or other cos used too for digital additions?
Glad of your news Phillip Dampier,
and I await your comments,
hugs!!

Thanks RossInIllinois!!
You say this about (Jack and Ennis):
They were to busy Stemmin the Rose to bother with hay.
...
Don't you think that playing in the hay could have been a scene??
Hugs!!

Oh sure!

Do you think Ennis and Jack had hay in the tent in those two first sex/love scenes??
Hugs!
LauraGigs:
Artiste, have you ever handled hay? Rolled around in it, played in it, et cetera?
The fact is, hay can be kind of rough, splintery and pokey! Also rather dusty and buggy. (Note that when Ennis throws it to the animals, he's wearing gloves.) Not the kind of thing you want to roll around in naked!
The whole idea of making love in hay is just a silly fantasy-stereotype that I imagine few people have actually done. We as non-cowboys (or non-ranch hands, that is) may fantasize about it. But guys like Jack + Ennis had few romantic illusions about hay since they worked with it all the time.
A nice soft bedroll would therefore be much more appealing!
