Minute Detail - IMO The Best Line Delivery in the Movie

[serious crayons]

Let's see. In addition to those mentioned above, I'd have to include "I can't stand this no more, Jack."

First (though not necessarily in this order), because I love it whenever one of them says the other's name. Second, because it is so damn sad. Third, because of how this single moment echoes both the alley scene and the "if you can't fix it" line. Fourth, because of the tragic expression on Ennis' face and the way he clutches onto Jack. Fifth, because it is Ennis' way of saying "I love you."

And rtprod, I also love "Me? I don't know," though mostly for his tiny self-conscious smile -- verbally, I always wish he would have elaborated a bit.

I will gladly engage in an Ennis/Heath love fest any time!

rtprod: YES! (beats ground with fist) YES!

Thanks, Sarah, now I need a cold shower.

It's not a line, but when Ennis visits the Twists, and the father talks about the ranch foreman,  you can see Ennis' nostrils flare very slightly.   Oh man, I love that.

Front-Ranger,

LOLOLOL....!  Funny how so many threads turn into Jake love-fests, isn't it?    

Where are all the Heath love fests?   HEATH! HEATH! HEATH!   

Also loooove Heath's delivery of this line at the motel:

"Me?  I don't know.."

His eye are half-closed as he drags on the cigarette and shakes his head slightly...  Talk about being deep inside the character.

Y'know, for me, I've realized it's not a Heath love fest, it's an Ennis love fest. I see pictures of Heath and say, "Oh, hi," but Ennis, I swoon.
Folks, there are days I seriously think I am losing it...

Leslie,

I'm with you -- Ennis del Mar -- what a man he is.  But a challenge for anyone, if you're up to it. 

Now that I've successfully devolved into a lovesick 13 year-old I guess there's nowhere to go but up...

Me too. I know exactly what you mean.  It is Ennis I really love. (Judging from many of the posts I suspect this is less true of the Jackophiles, perhaps because Jake looks more like Jack.)

But I also worship Heath as an actor. So I can go on and on about him, too.

And LOL rt, I was just thinking how Teen Beat I'm sounding lately! Well, that's the fun of the internet's relative anonymity. I never talk like this in "real" life, believe me.

Well, if you're reading my story, the Ennis I'm writing is turning into a pretty nice guy, sexy too, and he talks.

I just discovered this morning he likes sugar donuts. And wait til you see him in shorts!! LOL

[rtprod]

Leslie,

I guess that would be cut-off denim shorts, with a faded spot in the rear pocket, worn out from a pack of smokes...

As far as shirts go, please still keep him in plaids or white tees, rather than tank tops.
