Finishing the story...with hope

Thank you for your beautifully expressed thoughts, magicmountain. I think I'm right in perceiving that you suggest a kind of spiritual dimension to Ennis and Jack's story, and I very much agree with this sentiment. I think that is why these characters and this story resonate so deeply for so many--there is an archetypal energy at work here, a power that is linked directly to the core of human existence. This film and story are, quite simply, quiet miracles, and Annie, Ang, and all the rest who brought it so lovingly to life are angels.

I wish to dedicate this meager post to the memory of our recently departed friend Chris, who I so alarmingly read just today had died. As I have felt the impulse to dedicate my life to Jack and Ennis and everything they represent, I now wish to add Chris to my list of heroes and role-models. Chris, you will live on in our hearts and in the heart of God. Thank you for being here.

Loving in quiet strength,
Scott

Afternoon.  Could you supply the link to the story?  Having a hard time finding it on the Message Board, etc. over there.  Thanks.

Alas, cwby30, that thread has long since vanished into the internet ether, like so many of the others from that era on the IMDb "Brokeback Mountain" message board. At least during the first two or three months of 2006, that board was probably the most exciting and stimulating (both emotionally and intellectually) in the entire history of the IMDb.

I can tell you the username of the poster to whose story I was responding: bhebbe; I hope that may be of some help or interest.

Best regards,
Scott

The poet is anonymous, but the poem is found in the Shi Jing, collected by Confucious, 2,500 years ago.
