Last Monday I saw BBM in theatre again, and even the original version without dubbing (God bless those little arthouse cinemas
![Smiley :)](http://bettermost.net/forum/Smileys/cowboy/smiley.gif)
).
Two new things, which I didn't notice before, or at least not in this way:
The first is a horse behind Alma. Not a real horse, but a children's toy, a hobbyhorse. In the fire-and-brimstone-crowd scene. She's sitting in an easy chair, knitting, talking about smartening up for the church social. The hobbyhorse is red and wooden, it leans at a rack behind her. I attach a pic of it.
I don't know if this is important, but it catched my eye. Reminded me of the horse pictures we see in the Twist household and the fact that we see mountain pictures, but no horse pics in the various Del Mar households.
Hm. Being around horses was everyday life for Ennis, the mountains were what he craved for (or what they symbolized for him).
Quickly becoming a salesman, Jack's everyday life didn't include being around horses anymore. Maybe the horses symbolized for him what the mountain pics did for Ennis: their time together.
The second thing I noticed was a confirmation for me. I think it's a consensus that Junior knew about her daddy and Jack, to whatever degree. "Maybe he's not the marrying kind." she tells Cassie. Directly after this conversation, Cassie drags Ennis to the dance floor. And the camera lingers on Junior's face.
This time it was like I was seeing her expression for the first time. When I saw her face, I
knew that she knew.
So yes, she knows about Ennis and Jack. I attach a pic of this scene, too.
