"R" is ripple

The attraction and devotion that Jack and Ennis first felt for each other were to ripple and reverberate through all their subsequent years together.

"S" is Scott

The audiobook version of BBM is ably read by Campbell Scott, who does a lovely job. The only distraction was that he pronounces "Aguirre" to rhyme with "a queer".

"T" it totally

Ennis:  "I got the girls this weekend...I'm sure as hell sorry.  You know I am."

Jack nods...tried to retain some dignity, caught yet again in a wrenching situation with Ennis, feels totally powerless.  [screenplay]

"U" is uses

Ennis raises up, gets to his knees, unbuckles his belt, shoves his pants down with one hand, uses the other to haul Jack up on all fours.  Jack doesn't resist.
Ennis spits in the palm of his hand, puts it on himself. They go at it in silence, except for a few sharp intakes of breath.
Ennis shudders.   [screenplay]

Finding the shirts gave Ennis verification that Jack had loved him till the very last.

"W" is wincing

Ennis took the rag from Jack, after his run-in with the bear, and rubbed away most of the dirt, wincing from the pain.

"X" is xpertly

As it happens throughout, Ledger’s mastery over his rugged face xpertly reveals bewilderment and replays pleasures to come when he awakens, hung-over beside his sudden love.   Quiet mastery .. JWR.

Jack wasn't good at much, but at love he did yeoman's service.

"Z" is zephyr-fanned

After four years apart, Jack found Ennis in Riverton, Wyoming, and their still-smoldering passion flared like zephyr-fanned campfire coals.
