What do you scream at the TV screen?

Maybe it's because we still HOPE that the movie will take a dramatically different turn all of a sudden, like a hidden wormhole that only opens up after you've seen the movie 33 times?  ;D

I always scream at Ennis right after his infuriating "I guess I'll see you around then...". It's always something in the lines of "Ennis, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" or "Ennis you stupid ****....".

What do you scream at the TV screen?

When Jack says to Ennis, "I guess I'll see you next month, then," after the divorce, I don't scream it or even say it out loud, but I always think "Don't let him go, you idiot."

But at the end, when Ennis backs away from the closet, his eyes brimming and coal-black with tears, whispers "Jack, I swear," and then pulls that lower lip in just a little to keep it from shaking, I always, always think, "Aw, honey..."  I just want to rock him in my arms like a baby, then.

David:
Ugh,  so many frustrating scenes to scream at!    :P

Yes, the first departure scene.  I was yeling at Jack: "Offer Ennis a ride Stupid!"

And of course the Divorce scene.   "Ennis!  How could you turn Jack away??!!"

and  "Jack!   ask to crash there for the night so you can rest up for the return drive at least!   Then maybe Ennis will reconsider and tell the girls that "Uncle Jack" is staying a while".

My heart always goes out to Ennis when he leaves Brokeback and dry heaves in the alley.  Actually, instead of screaming at this scene, I almost whisper,

"Easy, Ennis, take it easy.  You'll get to see him.  You love Jack, he loves you, you'll be together soon."  Jack will find you."

When Ennis turns Jack away after the divorce, I do scream,

"Ennis, you're a fool!  I feel like slapping you silly!"

After Jack tells Ennis, "I miss you so much I can hardly stand it," I say,

"Man, Ennis, what's wrong with you?  Jack just told you he loves you (in his own way) and you just sit there like a knot on a log.  The  least you can do is say, same here, bud, or something like that!"

Amber:
During the final lake scene I always tell both of them "If only you knew this was the last time you'd see each other ..."

*sighs* How different things would have been if they knew.
