"V" is viability
« Reply #7081 on: September 05, 2006, 04:09:08 pm »
"As rendered in Proulx’s story, Jack had 'some weight in the haunch and his smile disclosed buckteeth,' while Ennis had a 'high-arched nose and narrow face . . . scruffy and a little cave-chested.'  In the film’s major concession to commercial viability, both Gyllenhaal and Ledger are decidedly prettier than Proulx’s inventions."
-- Matthew Kennedy, Bright Lights Film Journal  [review]

Ennis "might have to stay with his married daughter until he picks up another job, yet he is suffused with a sense of pleasure because Jack Twist was in his dream."  [story]
