"C" is craved

"What Jack remembered and craved in a way he could neither help nor understand was the time that distant summer on Brokeback when Ennis had come up behind him and pulled him close, the silent embrace satisfying some shared and sexless hunger."  [story]

(Jack Twist)'s family is equally dysfunctional, fronted by a bully and braggart of a father-in-law who sells farm equipment in Texas.

Feels good to be back.
Follow me at your own risk, dude.

After the episode with the bikers on the Fourth of July, Alma knew that Ennis's temper was something to be feared.

Ennis was so great with the horses, he never had to say giddyup . . .

According to Annie Proulx,
Ennis Del Mar was farsighted enough to dislike reading anything except
the saddle catalog from Hamley and Co.

Jack and Ennis's attraction to each other is an incontrovertible truth.

Comments by Jack Foley, president of distribution for Focus Features which is distributing Brokeback:

"The thing about the senior crowd is that they go to a lot of movies, and they like good movies.  By the third weekend, we were in Scottsdale (Ariz.), West Palm Beach (Fla.) and La Jolla (San Diego County) -- urban, well-to-do and a tremendous senior crowd.''

"K" is knotting

Ennis followed the Basque's instructions, putting two packs and a riding load on each animal, knotting them with half hitches.
