"D" is dusty

Dusty, choky little trailer office. Venetian blinds hang askew, the one desk littered with papers, the Bakelite ashtray filled with butts, only one chair for guests.
Description of Aguirre’s office in the screenplay.
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"The wind strikes the trailer like a load of dirt coming off a dump truck, eases, dies, leaves a temporary silence."  [short story]

Although there is only one GMC pick-up truck in the BBM film, there are several Fords!


=comment= "Lureen"
Meryl Streep's new movie "The Devil Wears Prada" co-stars BBM's Anne Hathaway (she looks great, very pretty) as a naive assistant to a big and ruthless magazine editor (MS) in New York!  BTW, Anne was born in Brooklyn!  The film is already the #2 movie in the Northeast -- second only to "Superman Returns"!

Waitress gives each boy his fresh beer. Gathers the empties, and leaves.

"H" is handwriting

Tom Gregory, who also bought the shirts from Brokeback, bought the postcards used in the movie. He trekked to Calgary and made a deal with the film's propmaster -- who wrote the cards in his own handwriting. Gregory stayed in the propmaster's house three days to make the deal, he says.

"I" is icy

In the screenplay, the scene where Jack and Randall make a fishing date is on a cold frosty night, and the parking lot is icy.

Finding the shirts jolted Ennis's memory back to their time on the mountain.
