"C" is chances

Joe Aguirre rides up to the main camp to tell Jack that chances are his uncle Harold won't survive his bout with pneumonia.  (But he does.)

"D" is dressings-down

Several dressings-down pepper the movie, two of which are delivered by Joe Aguirre:
 
"Some of these never went up there with you.  The count ain't what I'd hoped for neither.  You ranch stiffs ain't never no good."

"Twist, you guys wasn't gettin' paid to let the dogs baby-sit the sheep while you stemmed the rose.  Get the hell out of my trailer."

Ennis was being upfront with Jack when he emphasized that, "It's a one-shot thing we got goin' on here."

"F" is fingered

At the Twist house, Ennis went upstairs to Jack's bedroom and found the two shirts, hanging together down at the end of the closet. He fingered them gently, two precious relics from their summer up on Brokeback.

Thanks.  ;)

Alma squealed in delight and Ennis whooped it up as their toboggan glided down the hill.

Ennis had many hang-ups about his sexuality.

"I" is ingroup
« Reply #17286 on: April 30, 2008, 02:40:35 am »
Despite consistently wearing different colored shirts when together (see below), Ennis and Jack were the only other members of each other's ingroup.

From Wikipedia:
In sociology, an ingroup is a social group towards which an individual feels loyalty and respect, usually due to membership in the group. This loyalty often manifests itself as an ingroup bias. Commonly encountered ingroups include family members, people of the same race, culture or religion, and so on. Research demonstrates that people often privilege ingroup members over outgroup members even when the ingroup has no actual social standing; for instance, a group of people with the same color shirts, when the other group has another color of shirt.

"L" is lengthened

When Ennis told Jack they could not meet up until November, he lengthened the interval in which they would be apart.

Before TS2, Ennis mulls things over by the fire, but eventually musters up the courage to enter the tent.

"N" is nipping

After the fire died down, Ennis's teeth chattered from the nipping cold.
