in the years between Brokeback and Jack's death, Jack's and Ennis' daily treadmill was interrupted by their infrequent so-called fishing trips.

Round 929!

Next up is letter "J".

Each post will begin with a word
that starts with the letter "J" and,
as usual, include an unplayed word.


Ennis's breath came slow and quiet, he hummed,
rocked a little in the sparklight and Jack leaned
against the steady heartbeat....

We're going to have Ennis's steady heartbeat
assist us with this round, so please
be sure to include the following symbol
 at the beginning of your post:

"A" is actor

ake Gyllenhaal Describes "Brokeback Mountain" Director Ang Lee’s Style: “There’s an odd benevolence to him and his process, in the same way that his movies are benevolent. It’s empowering because you feel like, ‘Okay I’ve given all I can. There are scenes I’ve seen and I’m like, ‘Oh wow, I gave so much more, but he pulled it back.’ And that was him balancing his film. I just learned a lot as an actor in a director, especially in particular an auteur’s movie. It’s just another tool on my tool belt.”

ack has been described as "the romantic and optimistic half of the relationship, the one who wears his heart on his sleeve, cherishing for years the possibility that he and Ennis might some day settle down together."
