After her numerous notes and messages go unanswered, Cassie can no longer fool herself into thinking that she is Ennis's ladylove.

Jack was forced to wade into a huge mob of unruly sheep to try and separate Aguirre's flock from those shepherded by a pair of Chileans.

When Ennis and Jack started their affair, Ennis assumed they were both newbies, not realizing that this wasn't Jack's first rodeo.

Ang Lee orchestrates a particularly good scene involving Thanksgiving, where Jack and his father-in-law argue over whether Jack's son can watch TV during dinner.

"P" is pairing

The pairing of Jack and Ennis is described in the short story: 

That spring, hungry for any job, each had signed up with Farm and Ranch Employment -- they came together on paper as herder and camp tender for the same sheep operation north of Signal.

"S" is slabs

The cold air sweetened, banded pebbles and crumbs of soil cast sudden pencil-long shadows and the rearing lodgepole pines below them massed in slabs of somber malachite.

"T" is truelove

It probably wasn't Valentine's Day, but, in a deleted scene, Jack presented his truelove with the gift of a fancy rifle.

No rifles here, but I wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day.
BTW, who knew truelove was one word?!
