I love Artiste! he make us look at things from a different perspective......I never would have considered that she said "Jack Nancy", But you know, that is too funny to pass up!
Artiste:
Thanks brokeplex!
Glad that is funny for you!
In a way, that is what she is saying! See that actress really being nasty about Jack in her talk at Thanksgiving saying so in ways to her former husband Ennis:
she sure seems to rub Ennis by calling Jack with feelings as Jack is nasty according to her!!
She blames Jack to take away Ennis from her, even her marriage!! But she is jealous? Or she is being worst than that? That is one sign that the BM is anti-gay, to me!
Hugs!

I'm sorry Artiste you may not have gotten the joke, it is kind of an inside joke.
The word "Nancy" which you used instead of "Nasty" is archaic slur word used to characterize all gay men as effiminate. The word usage has I believe largely been forgotten among American English language speakers of today, but it was popular back in the 1940's World War II generation. My humor was partially at your expense and for that I apologize! But it was too funny to pass up, as you inadvertantly made Alma rather more biting and sarcastic than the screen writers intended. Now I would have LOVED IT if Alma had actually said "Jack Nancy" !!!!!!
mucho hugs buddy!
Artiste:
Thanks brokeplex!
There is no need to apologize. I accept that she could have said that word! And likely, that actress maybe wanted to do so! But was stopped?
Plus, it could be that Annie also wanted to use that word?
It seems to me that in the TV very popular show series titled Raymond (Everybody Loves Raymond), that such word is used by his father? It is still current, I think at times even in our countries, likely!
The BM movie makes it anti-gay in that way, by similar view by her... stressed way too much, it seems to me! To you too?
Hugs!

That was funny ;D Wonder what Ennis would have thought had she really said "Jack Nancy?" It seems that would put a whole new twist on that line :laugh:
