"U" is unspeakableness

The unspeakableness of his emotions caused Ennis to utter many a "hunh" and "hmm," but he got his point across.

Based on Annie Proulx's short story, Ang Lee's Brokeback Mountain provides a deeper peek into the interior workings of the main characters and what they must endure.

"A" is acknowledged

At the end of the summer on Brokeback, Ennis hardly acknowledged what had happened, resulting in his getting gut cramps so bad he pulled over and tried to puke.

"B" is blusterous

Ennis figured he could go fishin', because he had worked through the blusterous blizzard of the last winter.

"C" is chowtime

Once during the summer of '63, Jack arrived at the main camp at chowtime, hungry as hell, and all he found was beans.

Good theme!  I like the different
colors for the different seasons, too.

"D" is dad's

Upon leaving Brokeback, Jack told Ennis that he was thinking about going to his dad's place, to "give him a hand over the winter, then maybe head out for Texas in the spring."

Thank you. I don't want to fall down on the job.

"E" is empty-headed

Faced with the premature end of summer, and an early winter on its way, Ennis, loathe to admit he had fallen in love, springs on Jack an empty-headed farewell:  "Guess, I'll see you around, hunh?"

"F" is fellow

During an awkward farewell Jack inquired of his fellow sheepherder, "You gonna do this again next summer?"

"G" is grab-bag

Ennis goes through a grab-bag of conflicting emotions after his first sexual encounter with Jack in the summer of '63, but his confidence springs back in short order.
