"W" is wolfs

After Jack wolfs down "two bowls of stew, four of Ennis's stone biscuits, (and) a can of peaches," he complains to Ennis: "I'm commutin four hours a day."

"A" is anticipating

Ennis was nervously anticipating Jack’s arrival, and spending the time smoking and drinking.

Jack came back to Aguirre's trailer a year later, only to listen to him bloviate about stemming the rose.

"C" is craggy

"But by the time the 134 minutes of Brokeback Mountain  have ticked by, the stark, craggy poetry of its beginning feels like a faraway, rearview-mirror memory -- an echo of the way Jack, after first meeting Ennis, surreptitiously scrutinizes him in a car's side mirror."

"D" is dusted

The day that Jack met Lureen, he watched as her red cowboy hat flew off her head, then picked it up, dusted it off and gave it to her with a smile she wouldn't soon forget.

Jack remembered and craved the time when Ennis embraces him and sends him off to bed with an "I gotta go.  See you in the mornin'."

"F" is fateful

During that fateful summer of 1963, Ennis "thought he never had such a good time, felt he could paw the white out of the moon."

"G" is Gus

Ang Lee signed on to direct the screen version of Brokeback Mountain, ending speculation that openly gay director Gus Van Sant -- whose name had been attached to the project for years -- would eventually helm the gay love story.
