Doug, I'm curious. Did your friend and his colleagues do anything special when they analyzed these scenes? I mean, obviously they are trained professionals, so they applied that expertise to their analysis. But aside from that, did they use any special equipment or techniques? Or did they do pretty much what the rest of us do when trying to figure out these things -- in other words, watch it really closely and listen really hard with the volume up?

Hi, Katherine...they used the equipment available in the police dept, which can enhance sound, delete all sound, sharpen the picture, slow-mo, voice prints/patterns, voice overlay, etc.  Basically the same thing you see in TV shows (Without A Trace, CSI).  It is as reliable as it can get until newer equipment is invented, so I accept the findings.  I know some viewers will still be skeptical and continue in this beliefs, but that's OK.  This wasn't to prove whose right or wrong, and I guess I should have put a message at the beginning of my post to alert viewers so if they didn't want to know, not to read further.

  TS2:  The big question is who speaks, and what is said?  There is only 1 voice
         print in this scene, and he says "I'M sorry" followed by "It's all right, it's
         all right.  Lie back, Come on".  That voice belongs to J.

I am sooooo happy right now to have read this.  Some of you may understand, but I have always believed it was only one of them talking in this scene, and that the voice was Jack's!!!

Happy Happy Happy

 :) :D :D :)

...Nice to know ya, Ennis del Mar...

So there you have it.  Please remember the expression "Don't kill the messenger."

Doug
   

no no no, thank the messenger you mean. You've certainly cleared up a few mysteries for me. (which were mostly due to wrong subtitles)

To me "I'm sorry" sounds exactly like "S'alright" that Jack whispers the next two times. That is what I see and hear.
Thank you Heath and Jake for showing us Ennis and Jack,  teaching us how much they loved one another.

I was fortunate enough a couple of night ago to see 'Brokeback" at a friends home with a screening room surround sound, etc. As good as a theater really. n the scene pictured below I could hear as shown in the screen play the scene pictured below:

Ennis: Look what I brought.

Jack: Beans

Ennis: Gonna fix 'm just the way I use to.

"I love you" of course, Although no one else did, we did not rewind, nor did I have anyone look for it before. I did not hear "Oh Jack"

What is it we hear when Jack and Ennis are walking to the bar? Dogs barking or what?
