The "ABCs of BBM": Round 965! (Rules in first post)

[memento]

Brokeback is the story of two poor ranch hands who take jobs guarding a flock of sheep in the lush Wyoming wilderness.

[Fran]

"Again the ranch is on the market, and they've shipped out the last of the horses, paid everybody off the day before, the owner saying, 'Give 'em to the real estate shark, I'm out a here,' dropping the keys in Ennis's hand.  He might have to stay with his married daughter until he picks up another job, yet he is suffused with a sense of pleasure because Jack Twist was in his dream."    [short story]

[Amber]

During a portion of the filming completed in Kananaskis Country, some of the crew made their base at Nakiska Ski Lodge.

[Toast]

Around that time Jack began to appear in his dreams, ..... but the can of beans with the spoon handle jutting out and balanced on the log was there as well, in a cartoon shape and lurid colors that gave the dreams a flavor of comic obscenity.   [short story]

Upon hearing the news of the sudden ending to the summer, Ennis is seen pouting on the grassy knoll.

Probably the quirkiest line in the movie is after Alma says: "You know, your friend could come inside, have a cup of coffee..." and Ennis responds: "He's from Texas."

[Mikaela]

Jack's proposal that he and Ennis run a little cow and calf operation together may have been quite a radical idea for their time and place.

[Front-Ranger]

A hot jolt scalded Ennis and he was out on the landing, pulling the door closed behind him. Jack took the stairs two and two. [Short story]

[Fran]

Cassie:  "I left word for you with Steve at the ranch.  And you must've got those notes I left at your place."  [DVD]

[Toast]

We see Ennis, his little boy's face, fill with horror. Then, unlike the earlier flashback, we pan up the body in the ditch. But the bloodied face is not Earl's: it is Jack's. [screenplay]
