My interest is mainly steam era, so I could be talking through my Resistol, but the covered hopper on the end of the train--you can see it moving off into the distance as Jack approaches in his truck--looks too "modern" to me.

LOL about the steam whistle. As far as the hopper. Well, filming a movie on a limited budget in 2005 and getting train equipment from 1963 for one scene might be a little tough. We can't have everything I guess. Only us train guys would really take note of something like that anyways.

What a great pic! I hadn't seen that before! Ennis sure has his eyes on something special... ::)

What I would have changed is not having the babies (Alma and Jenny) crying so much at the beginning. Everytime they're on screen, they're crying. Even on July 4th. They could've shut up then!
Like someone said on a long ago thread on TOB or the old CT--what did they do, pinch those babies everytime they said "Action!"

I;'ve mentioned two of these before, and everyone says they're FINE..so here I go again:
"My dad says rodeo cowboys are all fuckups"--we proounce the word fuck ups, (two words, like) not one word with the asccent on the first syllable and the second barely audible.
"You're better OFF sleeping in the tent." ..as if there had been a prolongued discussion about where you were better OFF sleeping...no accent on OFF.
Heartily agree that a tiny flashback to the nosebleed fight would be very helpful to first-time viewers when Ennis finds the shirts, for the reason already mentioned: it's only been about 60 seconds since we heard about Jack's death, and people associeate the bloood with that at first viewing.
I..hate to get uibnto holy territory, but the new video "Remouncement"--shows Alma looking out the door during the reunion kiss, but it
is NOT the reunion kiss, it's the post-kiss activities, with Jack hungrily wanting more and Ennis nuzzling him..and it's SO MUCH BETTER than the movie, which shows two guys holding eachothers' heads and barely making mouth contact at all.
Would it be TOO much of a compromise to Ennis's homophobia if he said ONE LITTLE word of endearment, or appreciation for the sex? I know his face speaks a lot, but Proulx has provided us with so many: " little darlin'"--he could say it any way Ledger knows how, and I'm SURE he knows how--to get Jack, his kids and his animals, all in the same two words. Or "I goddam well hate it that you're going to drive away in the morning and I'm goin back to work," or "..but Jesus H, ain't nothin like this," or " took me about a year a figure out it was that I shouldn't a let you out a my sights." or... just a crumb..well, we've always got the flashback scene...
