"E" is environment

The trucks and cars everybody was driving in Brokeback Mountain sure as hell needed lots of gas. They were bad for the environment. Besides, redlining it like Jack wasn't exactly environmentally aware, either, was it?

"F" is friendship

According to the trailer:

It was a friendship that became a secret.
In America sex is an obsession.  In other parts of the world it is a fact.

Many local mountain ranges are visited by J and E in the story, including the Gros Ventres (that's French for "Big Bellies").

"I" is introduction
« Reply #2214 on: May 23, 2006, 09:17:23 am »
It was a tentative introduction on the steps of Aguirre's trailer.  Ennis was content to be on a first-name basis with this Jack Twist guy.

With his positive outlook, Jack could justify his own dreams of an ideal future with Ennis.   :D
I just want to celebrate another day of living.

Jack to Ennis:   "My ol' man was a bullrider, pretty well knowed [sic] in his day, though he kept his secrets to himself."   [screenplay]

Jack's lingering eye contact made Jimbo uncomfortable, to say the least.

There were moans of both pleasure and pain coming from both parties during the first tent scene.
