I happened to see the last part of BBM on cable last night and was awed all over again by how great Heath is in that scene. His eyes are so expressive. He simply is not himself there, but pure Ennis.
You can say that and mean it!!!
(Icon meant for both Heath and you)
I follow the photocaption thread over at DC, they use images from this scene and sequence quite a lot because it does lend itself to that sort of use since his emotions, his fear and insecurity are so eloquent.
I laugh at the captions but I
never fail to just look at the picture(s) and sigh a little over how wonderful that scene is, how pitch-perfect and deeply moving Ennis is.
*sigh*

I think 4 feathers is arguably the worst film Heath ever made, so I don't rewatch it, but that camel pic you posted sure caught my eye, Chrissi. It is very striking artistically, but what strikes me the most of all is how Heath is sitting, his legs lightly crossed in front of him on top of that huge big wagging animal.... I would have been so terrified!! I get nervous just from watching Heath there.
He sure did have balance and presence and guts.
