Would Jack have quit Ennis?
Artiste:
Are you saying that Ennis then became an one man-man ?
brokeplex:
I am saying that one way of the other Ennis would have been alone after his last meeting with Jack in 1983. Jack simply had to move on, he deserved a real relationship with someone who could treat their couplings as something more than an anonymous camping trip quickies that just kept repeating itself over and over again for every 6 months for 20 years. In the end, Ennis realized that by his unrelenting denial of Jack and himself, he had created this sad situation, too late for Jack. But, was it too late for Ennis? Probably, I had little hope for Ennis in the end, other than whatever relationships he could still salvage from his children, he was doomed to a lonely old age. Like the elderly cowboy Annie saw playing pool when she received the inspiration for the Brokeback story?

Merci brokeplex !
How instructive you are, like a professor ! Happy to read your post, and I am grateful too !!
I agree with you; however, I think that once Jack would have tried elsewhere, he would come back to the nest which is Ennis ??
How about that ?
Au revoir,
hugs!

I am moved by not only your complimentary words, but also you faith in Jack's love. But, aren't you really saying that Jack was a glutton for punishment, because that really is what Ennis was - a punisher. And to stick with Ennis was to be punished.
I think Jack deserved MUCH better than Ennis. I would hope that if he had lived, he would have found a better life with Randall.

Merci brokeplex !
Your post enlightens me too ! Ennis and Jack grew up both for punishment, do you know ?
You are giving me the proof that Jack as well as Ennis grew up in an islamic-type society !
You understand ?
