"F" is friend-turned-lover

"Ledger is halfway between inarticulate and taciturn but perhaps wiser than he initially seems.  His more outgoing friend-turned-lover is a Texas rodeo cowboy with slightly more worldly experience."
-- Mike Clark, USA Today   [review]

When Bobby Twist met his Newsome grandparents for the first time, the topic of discussion quickly became how much he looked like granddad.

"A singular guitar chord manages to invoke the sharp pang of hurt and empathy for the unrequited lovers each time another obstacle is thrown their way."

The kickoff of the Thanksgiving Day football game on the Twists' TV came not long before the kickoff of a spat between Jack and L.D.

"L" is last-ditch

Jack made a last-ditch effort to let Ennis know what his feelings about him were when he said: "Tell you what... truth is, sometimes I miss you so bad I can hardly stand it...."

An excerpt from Ang Lee's acceptance speech upon being presented with the Academy Award for Achievement in Direction for "Brokeback Mountain":

"Thank you, members of the Academy, for this tremendous honor.  And to everyone at Focus Features, in particular, David Linde, James Schamus, thank you for your love and support.  To Bill Pohlad, Tory Metzger, Ira Schreck, Joe Dapello, many thanks, and a special thanks to David Lee.  And thanks to my wife, Jane Lin, and my boys, Han and Mason.  I love you.  On 'Brokeback Mountain,' I felt you with me every day.  I just did this movie after my father passed away.  More than any other, I made this for him.  And finally, to my mother and family, and everybody in Taiwan, Hong Kong and China, thank you."
