"U" is unleashing

The reunion gave Jack and Ennis the oportunity of unleashing the suppressed passion they had been feeling for each other since the days of Brokeback.

Cassie was verging on tears towards the end of her conversation with Ennis at the coffee shop.

Wine Review - Cline Cellars, Sonoma Zinfandel 2004

Whoa, cowboy. This wine is chomping at the bit, an almost-thoroughbred that needs to be broken in.

 ... Wines of this nature could use a little Brokeback therapy, and get in touch with their less aggressive, more sensitive side.     Cline Cellars, Sonoma Zinfandel 2004

Re: "X" is for Xanadu

Brokeback Mountain was Jack and Ennis' Xanadu, a paradise on earth . . . .

=compliment= Ekeby
Kudos for finding a real "X" word as
opposed to one that starts with an "ex".

"Y" is yattering

Lashawn's forte is yattering; she talks a blue streak, making it difficult for anyone else to get a word in edgewise.

"Z" is Zhivago's

Gustavo Santaolalla's (Academy Award Winning) score (for Brokeback Mountain) also adds a quaint but incredibly necessary touch to the film, as the few calming, often repeated measures drift through the film like tumbleweed, or a breeze over the landscape the film encompasses. The score's soft chorus is startlingly powerful, and its power is reminiscent of Lara's Theme from Dr. Zhivago's Oscar-winning score.

"A" is amiable

Jack was thoughtful, considerate, gentle, romantic – he was downright amiable.
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"B" is bombshell

Ennis drops a  bombshell when he says "we can get together every once in a while way out in the middle of nowhere".

"C" is cook

Jack tells Ennis, "I can't cook worth a damn.  Am pretty good with a can opener, though."
