"Nearly a decade ago, Annie Proulx wrote a story featuring intensely filmable people (modern cowboys) getting up to something pretty unfilmable...."
-- David Lipsky, Rolling Stone

"V" is vampish

Cassie did her vampish best to rope Ennis.

Now I understand why Ennis can't dance in the "Devil's Right Hand" hair-flinging scene:  he has to pee.

"W" is wallflower

Cassie was no wallflower when she dragged Ennis onto the dance floor.

Ennis probably would have preferred to have been a wallflower in the men's room.

"X" is xecrator

Jack was the xecrator in this scene from Annie Proulx: 
"You're too much for me, Ennis, you son of a whoreson bitch. I wish I knew how to quit you."

=aside= Paul
Ping !

"Z" is zanyism

Ennis enjoyed the zanyism of Jack's antics when he was doing the rodeo cowboy impersonation.

"A" is albatross

Ennis' childhood trauma was the albatross around his neck — preventing him from finding joy with Jack.

Old Mr. Twist says that their part of Jack's ashes will be buried in the family plot and not on the Brokeback Mountain.

Joe Aguirre:  "What I want, camp tender in the main camp where the Forest Service says, but the herder" -- pointing at Jack with a chop of his hand -- "pitch a pup tent on the q.t. with the sheep, out a sight, and he's goin' a sleep there."  [screenplay]
