"U" is unnoticeable

Hannah Stewart's visible microphone cord was far from being unnoticeable; in fact, it's mentioned in the Brokeback Mountain "Goofs" section at IMDb:

  • Crew or equipment visible: When Ennis tells Alma that he and Jack are going fishing, he hands Alma Jr. to her. While in her mother's arms, Junior's pajama top hikes up and you can see her microphone cord.

Oh, to be 46 again....

"B" is brain

Heath Ledger on working with director Ang Lee:

"Ang has a superb understanding of the intimacy and internal nature of film acting. His attention to detail is microscopic in pre-production ... think about the way you walk, talk. Then go away, digest it all, spit out a character of your own. Turn up to film, and Ang barely says a word the entire shoot.

"He trusts you to have given birth to the instincts, brain and breath of the character, and instead of directing you, he directs the environment around you to make it believable."

Tale of an untrained homeboy

Monroe directed Ennis to the aisle containing the condimental substances.

As Lureen describes how an exploding truck tire was instrumental in causing Jack's death, Ennis envisions something different.

The morning after the Siesta Motel, Jack expressed his famishment to Ennis:  "I'm starvin'--you want somethin' to eat?"

"G" is god-awfully
« Reply #20349 on: September 01, 2009, 01:15:12 pm »
Ennis was so god-awfully depressed by his argument with Jack at the lake that he couldn't face poor Cassie and dropped her without a word.
