"V" is violinist

During the Oscars, violinist Itzak Perlman played the theme to Brokeback Mountain.

=question=
I'm not sure if "violinist" used in this context is appropriate for the board. If not, I'm sorry.



=comment=
All  awards shows are game for the "ABCs of BBM" (as stated in the rulez) as long as the word answer relates to BBM.

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

Jack and Ennis smoked some weed on one of their camping trips.

We don't know if they indulged in chips and chocolate afterwards.

The cinematography in Brokeback Mountain is xuberant, contrasting with the theme of the story.

When Jack and Ennis rode their horses at a walk, a noticeable yaw was detectable in their movements.

"Z" is zappy

Jack was listening to a zappy song (King of the Road) on the way to see Ennis after his divorce.
Def: Lively: a zappy tune.

We wonder if Jack's death was accidental or premeditated.

Bronc riding is dangerous and can keep you out of the army, as Jack Twist found out.
