Jack, tired of spending lonely nights in a pup tent that smelled like cat piss or worse, cursed Joe Aguirre for bending the Forest Service rules.

"D" is disapproval

"Thrown together, lonely and frustrated, Ennis and Jack find that their relationship has grown deeper and fiercer than friendship and they have sex.  It is a glorious, revelatory experience, and safe from society's disapproval on that remote Arcadian spot, they are at one with their own natures and with nature itself."

Ennis's paranoia led him to believe that his affair with Jack was everyone's business.

In his review of Brokeback Mountain, movie critic Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian  wrote that Jake Gyllenhaal "has matured into one of the most charismatic actors of his generation."

  • There's no reins on this one....
"H" is hugging

Ennis stopped Jack from hugging him when he arrived unannounced after the divorce, ostensibily because he wasn't alone, but also hinting at his discomfort.

While Ennis drummed on the coffeepot, Jack intoned the words to "Water-Walking Jesus".

The end credits for Brokeback Mountain  show Quentin Lowry as one of the "Jack stunt doubles."

"M" is moneyed

As the years went on, Jack's concerns were increasingly those of the moneyed class.

Dang, sorry to have missed the 7 round!  I sure used to love Mark Spitz back when.  :)
