After Alma Jr. left the table, Alma muttered "
Please
, thank you" into the thin air. Ennis was asleep in a beer-induced stupor but woke as soon as he heard Jack's car approaching.

Ennis spent his life
questioning
who he was, and if he deserved to be happy.

"The closet was a shallow cavity with a wooden
rod
braced across, a faded cretonne curtain on a string closing it off from the rest of the room."

Ang Lee’s films include many dualities. In
Brokeback Mountain
, Jack is similar to
Sense
(Marianne) and Ennis is similar to Sensibility (Elinor) in
Sense
and Sensibility
.

Even Alma could see the
tension
between Jack and Ennis in 1967.
The floorboard vibrated between them.

Jack made an
unscheduled
trip to Mexico after Ennis told him sorry, he'd have to see him next month because it was his weekend with the girls -- Jack's 1,200-mile drive north be damned!

Ennis was
vengeful
when he felt that the world was against him, such as at Thanksgiving when he picked a fight at the Black and Blue Eagle.

Nice playing leapfrog with U, Fran and Toast!

Our shepherd friends were driven off the mountain by

Lureen's teeth had
yellowed
over the years, no doubt due to smoking and not flossing.
