Uncle Harold : Who was he and how dare he end the summer a month early.
Toast:
Interesting to get the timeframes straightenend out.
BUT I think my question is still valid:
What would have happened between Jack and Ennis if Aguirre had not ended the Brokeback work as early?
If Jack and Ennis had been together for another 20 or 30 days, what might have happened?
twistedude:
Answer: Ennis would have married Alma as planned...the kook! Jack never had a chance, until he was dead...sorry I haven't got time for all the elaborate anD possibly valid interpretations of "UNcle hAROLD" IN THE ORIGINAL.
I thought you meant Hal in Leslie's stoiry "A Love Boirn From Steel," who just died in chapter 15, the best chapter yet...

can't believe I made you go through all that, sorry... I too have the story, but I have only read it twice, whereas I have the movie memorized....
BBM Scholars are the ones who know everyting about everything BBM, they used to reside at IMDb, and I read most of their posts. Of course now it is like a ghost town, and all the old threads are slowly vanishing...
thanks for the post tiawahcowboy,

Not that much of a problem. A guy sent me the BBM short story in a text file when I belonged to a Yahoo Group back in December.
Well, I never had a membership at that IMDb forum but I see that people here talk about it. Those "BBM Scholars" sound more like know-it-alls rather than real experts.
I don't have a copy of the "Story to Screenplay" book; but, maybe I can get it next month. A friend has promised to buy my old PC (not exactly that old) and he will pay me on his payday, the 1st of June.
Front-Ranger:
It's Throwback. . .Monday!! I was just reading over this old topic and thinking, "Gee, I miss Toast!" :-\
So, did we ever adequately answer the question? Are people today thinking, "Who the heck is Uncle Harold?"
southendmd:
Obviously, Aguirre herded sheep back in the day with Uncle Harold and they had a torrid, but unsuccessful affair.
Probably Ma Twist used it for blackmail.
