PERFECT, but...

Yeah rt, Heath is good there, it's just the girls that bother me.

Agreed. I noticed that too.

The train has no caboose on the end. In 1963 a freight train in the U.S. would still have had a caboose. And the freight cars that we can see as the train rolls off into the distance and Jack drives up aren't "period" either.

Hmmm, interesting observation Jeff. I'm a train buff too, and you're probably right about that, unless it was a short line train or something. I remember on TOB there was a discussion that at least they got the sound of the horn right for the railroad line and trains in Wyoming in 1963.

I want to see the extended closet scene too. I heard it been discussed a lot and really wanted to see the rare instance that Ang Lee let Health not underplay the role. Saw the ISA show but missed the part of Health nomination >:(.
Can someone who has the extended scene and technical know-how to put it up somewhere so the rest of us can see it? Please…

Please put that extended scene up !! This is the first time I've heard of it too... see now that's something that could be on a special edition DVD!
My one part, and I KNOW I'm going to catch hell for this, is Heath's delivery of the line "I'm nothing, I'm nowhere" in that final scene in the mountains. It seemed a little overdramatic, IMO and took me out of the movie for a few seconds, especially because I consider the rest of that scene to be flawless. There was just something about the way he squeezed the bridge of his nose and squinted his eyes... I know that it made sense for his character because he didn't want to show his emotions by crying and maybe he was trying to hold the tears back, but it looked to me like it was Heath trying to force some tears out. I don't think that's the case because Heath cries on cue in many other parts of the movie but, I don't know, there was just something off in that line delivery for me.

Ugh, now I have to bear the consequences of starting this thread! LOL. Little, you are really brave. That is my favorite line reading in the movie! And those Heath-tears did get forced out too, down the bridge of that nose and into the air. Was a beautiful thing.
Thanks for...er...sharing. hehehe
