"Jack, I swear..." What do you think Ennis meant by that?

I was wondering what people would think of it.  I only posted it because it was a recent piece on BBM.

I read about half and saw at least a couple of mistakes. There are at least two in this sentence alone. This was mainly because of the fear instilled by Ennis’ father, who he remembers beating up a homosexual for catching him in the act.

My view of the ending was at least partly solidified by a lengthy argument posed about 12 years ago by ruthlesslysentimental/clancypants. He contended that Lureen's account was correct, that Ennis imagined something different based on his own experiences, and that's one of the main points of the movie -- Ennis' fears were their biggest obstacle.

All that made complete sense to me, although I remember reading years ago that Ang filmed a scene, but later cut it, that would have suggested the opposite outcome.

So who knows.
