"E" is Emmylou's
« Reply #9420 on: December 12, 2006, 10:16:41 pm »
Emmylou's vocals on "A Love That Will Never Grow Old" are heart-breakingly beautiful.

=aside= Playerz
I found this over at IMDb:  "The Brokebacklycrumb Tinies" which is a take-off from Edward Gorey's "Gashlycrumb Tinies".  It's very ABCz-related, with some rhyming.

"F" is fret

Jack would fret because he and Ennis had so little time to spend together.

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"G" is generously
« Reply #9422 on: December 12, 2006, 11:01:18 pm »
Jack generously offered to loan Ennis some money to make up for the lost pay, but Ennis declined the offer, saying, "I don't need your money.  I ain't in the poorhouse."

Thanks for the link.

"H" is hats

LaShawn Malone is the only person who says the word hats in Brokeback Mountain:

"We come out here thinking ranchin' was still big hats and Marlboros."

Interesting link.
They seemed to be running out of letter words.
Mmmm.

"It's So Easy" sung by Linda Ronstadt is on the Brokeback soundtrack.

"J" is Jack-Ennis
« Reply #9425 on: December 13, 2006, 01:51:47 am »
"When the summer ends, it seems the romance must too.  Not only does the Jack-Ennis hook-up break nearly every relationship taboo under Wyoming's big, conservative sky, Ennis is set to marry his hometown sweetie, Alma (Ledger's real-life baby mama, Michelle Williams).  So Jack returns to the rodeo circuit, and Ennis becomes more or less domesticated.  Years pass."

"L" is long-suffering
« Reply #9427 on: December 13, 2006, 09:42:23 am »
Interior: Childress, Texas: Jack & Lureen's house: Thanksgiving:  Day: 1977:
Jack and Lureen's home. Wall-to-wall carpeting, fairly luxurious, particularly in comparison to Ennis's life. Many photos of Lureen winning barrel-racing trophies. One of Jack, the one taken in the arena the day they met.
Jack, Lureen, Bobby, age ten, Lureen's long-suffering mother and L. D. Newsome, Jack's prick of a father-in-law. The table is set for a full Thanksgiving dinner, huge turkey and all the trimmings. As everyone shuffles into their places at the table, We hear the TV in the background. Football game.   [2003 screenplay]

"About that wallop -- it comes, first and foremost, from the story of Brokeback Mountain, adapted from Anne Proulx's award-winning short and guaranteed to turn your heart into mush."

"N" is necessary

Alma thought that "doing what she hated" was a necessary evil in her marriage.
