Okay, my favorite wordless moment is when Ennis steps into the tent in TS2 and we cut to an over-the-shoulder shot from Ennis' POV with Jack's face swimming up into close-up, and he's got his bedroom eyes going full force (someone asked me to define "bedroom eyes" the other day and I said "2 words: Jake Gyllenhaal!"

I'm bumping this so everyone will have something completely different to read. Thanks, Amanda, for the idea!

Hi Lee thank!

I love Jack's face (speaking of Jake's acting through subtle/ spot-on facial expressions) during the reunion right after they break their first kiss and Ennis is caressing Jack's ear and jaw line.  The look of stunned emotion - half ecstasy and half wanting to cry - is beyond perfect.

Ennis chugging like a freight train next to Alma's sink on Thanksgiving.

Ennis standing back to view the numbers he has just stuck on the mailbox.

YESYESYESYESYES!  (In other words, I couldn't agree more. ).

Everything about the J&E side of the reunion is one momentuous, perfect favourite (nearly) wordless moment with me. If I was to break it down into tiny little pieces, one of those pieces that very rapidy comes to mind is that thunking Nnnggghhh sound that Ennis makes when they first embrace; the sound speaking volumes about the satisfying, solid impact for body, mind and soul as Ennis is able to hold Jack close once more.

Mikaela, I love how you worded this.
