With a whiskey bottle and his hat in hand, Jack livens things up with a pretend bull ride around the campfire.

Next to the drip-drying elk are two meat-eating cowboys.

The interior of the Twist’s home was flashier but much neater than the del Mar's.

"P" is pommel

After breakfast at their first campsite on Brokeback, Jack watches soberly as Ennis grips the pommel of his saddle, mounts quickly and heads up the mountain to take over the job of herder.

"R" is reheating

In the prologue, Ennis was reheating stale coffee while hoping that his dream about Jack Twist "might stoke the day, rewarm that old, cold time on the mountain when they owned the world and nothing seemed wrong."

"S" is silky

     "Ennis, please, no more damn lonesome ranches for us," she said, sitting on his lap, wrapping her thin, freckled arms around him.  "Let's get a place here in town?"
     "I guess," said Ennis, slipping his hand up her blouse sleeve and stirring the silky armpit hair, then easing her down, fingers moving up her ribs to the jelly breast, over the round belly and knee and up into the wet gap all the way to the north pole or the equator depending which way you thought you were sailing, working at it until she shuddered and bucked against his hand and he rolled her over, did quickly what she hated.  They stayed in the little apartment which he favored because it could be left at any time

"T" is toppling

Before leaving to go down the mountain, Jack playfully roped Ennis, toppling him to the ground; however, he soon regretted it, finding himself with a bruised cheek and a bloody shirt.

"U" is untented

Ennis decided it was too late to go back to the sheep, so he tried to sleep, untented, on the ground cloth.

From People's Daily Online:

Ang Lee bags Best Director for 'Brokeback Mountain'
       
TAINAN: There are no horses. Men don't wear cowboy hats. And pickup trucks don't rumble down dusty roads.

Director Ang Lee's hometown in southern part of Taiwan Province is worlds away from the panoramic American West on display in "Brokeback Mountain" for which he won the Oscar for best director on Sunday.
