Though they weren't tough old birds yet, on that Thanksgiving Ennis and Jack had flown a long way from their aerie on Brokeback Mountain.

Ennis' goose was cooked when Alma cooked up a storm about his cooked up "fishing trips."

That picture of jack doesn't need any fixing.

There was an edginess between Jack and LD, but LD was one blade shy of a sharp edge.

In addition to the turkey's, Ennis' feathers were ruffled on Thanksgiving when Alma brought up the subject of his "fishing trips."

"G" is gradual
« Reply #8758 on: November 21, 2006, 11:15:16 am »
Alma made her case against Ennis in gradual steps: first the non-wife, then the fishing trips, then the price tags, then the note, then the water sluicing, then the plate scraping; and finally it became nasty.

=reply= Paul and Sandy
That pic of J. Twisty is from my fav point in the film.
Look! A little blue toaster. Thanks!

"H" is hesitation

"Without hesitation, Ennis runs around the pickup, punches right inside the open driver window four or five times.  Then [he] yanks open the driver door, drags the huge man out in the slushy street, pummelling him and kicking him."  [screenplay]
