The boys' conversations were full of invectiveness and dirty talk.

After the post-divorce mixup, Jack lonesomely drove south of the border down Mexico way.

I always thought the name of this song was
"Death" -- Death, I hear you callin', but I
can't come home right now....
  LOL

Thanks from me, too, for the Gilda Radner video. 
I saw her live in Chicago many, many years ago
during her "Live from New York" tour and your
posting of "Let's Talk Dirty to the Animals" made
me think of that.  For me, the best part was when
the audience joined Lisa Loopner in singing "The
Way We Were."  A sheet of paper with the lyrics had
been included in the program, so we all knew the
words.  Imagine an entire audience singing along
with Gilda.  It was awesome!  The souvenir program
was a Gilda Radner paper doll with different outfits
you could cut out.  I still have it.

"N" is niggardliness

Because of the niggardliness of Ennis's wages, Alma would have to work hard for the money.

When LaShawn worked at Neiman Marcus, she would outspend the money she earned on clothes.

"P" is plains
« Reply #19916 on: June 08, 2009, 06:36:15 pm »
An excerpt from an NPR "Day to Day" broadcast:

Derek Rath:  The wide-open plains of Brokeback Mountain were a perfect match for Gustavo's approach to the soundtrack.

Gustavo Santaolalla:  The environment of the story, you know, called for something spacious....

"R" is revolution
« Reply #19917 on: June 09, 2009, 12:36:42 pm »
Actually, I think a movie about two guys mooning and snogging at a campfire does exist: Gus Van Sant's My Own Private Idaho. So is Brokeback truly the filmic revolution that so many (including many here at EW) claim it is? This isn't exactly new territory. What about the Oscar props already given to another cowboy romance-tragedy, Boys Don't Cry, and John Schlesinger's meditative lovers' merry-go-round, Sunday Bloody Sunday, from way back in 1971?

"T" is time-honored

Jack, Lureen, L.D., Fayette, and Bobby participate in the time-honored tradition of eating turkey on Thanksgiving Day, as do Ennis, Alma, Monroe, Alma Jr., and Jenny.
