Jack "had shot an eagle, he said, turned his head to show the tail feather in his hatband."  [story]

To Ennis, the two shirts are irreplaceable.

To me, the ABCz are irreplaceable, and hard to stay away from.
So too, meeting fellow Brokies in Boston this weekend, especially Sandy who is a true gem.
Happy new year, darlin'.

To Ennis, getting together way out in the middle of nowhere was simply being judicious.

When "Brokeback Mountain" was playing in theaters in Denmark, the currency used to buy a ticket was the krone.

Jack Twist, he wanted a meaty meal so Ennis shot the deer for him.

Det ensomme liv under åben himmel og de rå men smukke omgivelser danner langsomt rammen om en ømhed mellem de to mænd.
The lonely life in the open air and those rough but beautiful surroundings slowly create a tenderness between the two men.

"N" is noteworthy

"The Australian-born Ledger has undoubtedly earned the noteworthy accolades of dramatic achievement reserved most exclusively for history's great actors -- no less than Brando, De Niro, or Olivier, to name a few.  To be sure, Heath Ledger's astonishing portrayal of Ennis del Mar in Brokeback Mountain will be praised and celebrated as brilliant and memorable for generations to come."

One can say about either the short story or the film, that Brokeback Mountain is one heck of an oeuvre.

Ennis did provide more than beans for his friend Jack.  Now they can have deer soup.

"Thanks to his performance in Brokeback Mountain, Heath Ledger is no longer just 'that dude who jousted to Queen remixes,' but a bankable and respected leading man."
