Alma couldn't wipe Alma Jr.'s nose herself because she was busy as a bee washing clothes on the washboard.

The ochre-branched willows swayed stiffly, pollened catkins like yellow thumbprints.     [Proulx]

After TS1, Ennis went back up to the sheep, one of which was dead as a doornail.

"F" is fishiness
« Reply #12854 on: May 01, 2007, 06:22:04 pm »
The former owner of the ranch seemed to think there was fishiness in the ranch resale business and he told Ennis:  "Give em to the real estate shark, I'm out a here."     [Proulx's prologue]

Jack's TS1 climax was like the going-off of a gun.

"H" is heartbreakingly
« Reply #12856 on: May 01, 2007, 06:24:52 pm »
"...by the end of the film we have passed through the 70s and entered the 80s, and still nothing has changed in Ennis’ Wyoming, a place seemingly frozen in time like the relics of his love that he preserves, heartbreakingly, in an all-too-literal closet."

"I" is insect's

When Ennis watched, across the great gulf,  Jack's distant movements were like an insect's journey across a tablecloth.

When Ennis found the two shirts in Jack's closet, it was as if they fit together like pieces in a jigsaw puzzle.

Regarding the luminosity of the "boneless blue" was like drowning.
