"I" is ipso

Ennis was afraid to call what he and Jack did that first night in the tent a homosexual act, lest he be thought, ipso facto, a queer.

There was a particular luminescense to Rodrigo's cinematography.

"M" is manufactured
« Reply #18852 on: January 25, 2009, 12:24:15 am »
An excerpt from Heath Ledger's bio:

[Heath] had read Proulx's story and the screenplay adaptation, by Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana, and found both deeply moving. "I truly had a lump in my throat, but . . . these manufactured fears started to bleed into my response to the script -- 'Oh, this is risky,' that sort of thing," he explained. "But then that just started to fade away and I thought . . . 'What exactly am I risking?' I didn't feel like I had a career to risk, and I'm a little ruthless about it anyway. If it went away based upon a creative choice I made, then it's not really an industry I want to be in."

Jack's mother was one of the few nonsmokers in the film.

It was overdetermined that the boys would have to separate at the end of the summer.

"P" is playmates

One of the reasons that Alma wanted to move to town was so the girls could have playmates.

"R" is roominess

Jack didn't mind comprising the roominess inside the tent in order for Ennis to "quit hammerin'."

The steaminess of TS2 was surpassed only by the reunion kiss.

"T" is target

After carefully aiming his rifle at a big coyote, Jack was unable to hit his target.

"U" is underminer
« Reply #18859 on: January 25, 2009, 09:56:11 pm »
Alma had only one good look at the underminer of her relationship with Ennis, a soft-spoken cowboy who tipped his hat to her and said "Pleased to meet you, ma'am."
