L.D. takes grandfatherly pride in the fact that baby Bobby is "the spittin' image of his grandpa."

Nine-year-old Ennis and eleven-year-old K.E. look down at Earl's corpse
We see the young Ennis looking down at the body--as his eyes widen,
we see the horror wash over his nine-year-old face...   [2003 screenplay]

Lureen walked over to Jack in the bar and jauntily asked, "What are you waiting for, cowboy ... a matin' call?"

When thinking about replacements for the food scattered on the trail, Jack considers the sheep to be killable, edible, and better than beans.

Between killing a sheep and having to eat more means, Jack considered killing a sheep the lesser of two evils, while Ennis considered eating beans the lesser of two evils.

Alma asked Ennis to use rubbers because she dreaded another pregnancy.  He said no to that, said he would be happy to leave her alone if she didn't want any more of his kids.  Under her breath she said, "I'd have 'em if you'd support 'em."  And under that, thought, anyway, what you like to do don't make too many babies.

Jack and Lureen were nestling in the backseat for purposes of necking and nookie.

After Lureen let go of the brakes, Jack proceeded to move onward and upward.
