Cast list Update:

I have made some executive desisions and since David made such a plea to be Jack in the tire iron scene I figured that he should play all of older Jack's scenes. I would like to send out a special thanks to Clarissa as she seems to be playing alot of the parts. :-*

What about Brandon for Young Jack and Spooky for young Ennis?

If I can be that stand-in/stunt double, I'll double as the farmer who says, "Ain't he the pissant that used to ride the bulls?" I can't remember if that's Farmer #1 or Farmer #2.

Can I play the tent?...

Well, if no tent is required, I'll be bartender #1 - is it the one that says "I sure do"? I want to be that one. I like the way he says it..

Clarissa - Biker #1
Jeff wrangler- Farmer #1
Jude- Bratender #1

Jeff it is farmer #1 that says, "Ain't he the pissant that used to ride the bulls?" cause farmer #2 replies, "He  used to try!" I will PM Brandon and Spooky to see if they want to take the roles. But we still need a older Ennis to go with David's older Jack.

Thanks for the clarification! Farmer #1 reporting for duty!

So is Jude the cute bartender with the white hat who knows Lureen? Is he #1 or #2?

Whichever, I can double up as the other bartender, the one who asks Jack, "Ever try calf ropin'?" (BTW, I actually do mix a mean cocktail.  ;D )

Jeff I have put you as bartender #2 but I am not sure if bar patron is the one in the Jimbo scene or not.
I realised I have put Jude as bratender instead of bartender in the last post, I was going to change it, but I thought I would leave it cause it is too funny! :laugh:

If you are a very versatile actor then maybe you could play the tractor aswel! ;D

I saw that too, Becky, but I didn't tell, 'cause I found it funny too!  ;D Just one thing, just put Jude, not JudeW, yes? THANK YOU!

Oh and Jeff, I'm the one that knows Lureen! I like it when he says 'I sure do'.. I like the way he says 'do' - something like 'I sure duwe'..
