"R" is remembered

"What Jack remembered and craved in a way he could neither help nor understand was the time that distant summer on Brokeback when Ennis had come up behind him and pulled him close, the silent embrace satisfying some shared and sexless hunger."  [novella]

"V" is version

The movie is very faithful to the Annie Proulx original version of the story.  Annie is quite happy with the way that her story made it to the screen.

"W" is worries

Ennis's worries about being killed, was what kept the boys apart.
In America sex is an obsession.  In other parts of the world it is a fact.

"Y" is yokefellows
« Reply #2589 on: May 30, 2006, 11:18:48 am »
Jack and Ennis were yokefellows for 20 years.
Def: An associate or companion; a mate; a fellow;
=comment=
This word appears in various dictionaries  with either an upper case "Y" or lower case "y".
Merriam Webster has it with a lower case "y", so if it's good enough for them ...
