Mrs. Twist was the more dignified of Jack’s parents.

"A closing scene involving a visit by Ennis to Jack's parents is heartbreaking in what is said, and not said, about their world. A look around Jack's childhood bedroom suggests what he overcame to make room for his feelings. What we cannot be sure is this: In the flashback, are we witnessing what really happened, or how Ennis sees it in his imagination? Ennis, whose father 'made sure me and my brother saw it.'"                                                                                                                --Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Ennis and Jack’s relationship became fractious around their 20th anniversary.

George Strait's "All My Ex's Live in Texas" blares from the car stereo. Engine cuts, music stops. Alma Jr. steps out of the Camaro and closes the door …. Ennis smiles. Alma Jr. walks up to her father.    [screenplay]

Jack:  "I like doin' it with women, yeah, but Jesus H., ain't nothin' like this."    [short story]

[southendmd]

Ennis says to Alma, "I'll be half the night...bring home some round steak..."

Great H!

Cassie:   (hits him on the shoulder) "Hush up, Ennis, this is important. He's learnin' how to be a Jedi knight."
Ennis tries to stop the blowing dust from entering his truck cab, tucks an old flannel shirt in the crack created by the drive-in movie speaker.   [screenplay]
