confess your most irrational reaction to BBM here
Brown Eyes:
OK, so now I'm having a harder and harder time watching the second half of the film. You would think that the emotional impact of the 2nd half would have lessened a bit now that I've seen the movie a zillion times and analyzed bbm backwards and forwards here and on imdb. No. Quite the opposite is happening. I find myself distraught and crying from almost the Earl story on. I'm increasingly struck by a sense of frustration as much as melancholy and general sadness.
I'm sort of glad that the movie can still impact me this much. I've been worrying that I would eventually sort of overdose on BBM. Clearly, I don't need to worry so much.
:-\ :'(
ps. DeeDee what is that picture in your avatar from? Just curious.

I haven't watched the DVD all the way through yet. I keep stopping after the post-divorce scene. See, if I don't watch the rest of the movie, then maybe Jack will spend the night in a hotel in Cheyenne (can't drive for 28 hours straight, not all emotional like that), and then wake up the next morning and decide, screw it, I'm going back when the weekend's over.
Or at least, maybe if I don't watch the movie to the end I can keep Jack from dying.

I booked a flight to New York City just to meet a bunch of total strangers and chat with them about a movie! Shall be leaving the green hills of Northern Bavaria in the early hours next friday. Makes me feel like on a sugar high. Old Brokeback got me good, I guess...
::)

Anke - It may seem irrational, but its something you'll probably remember for a long time afterwards! ;) Something crazy, spontaneous and fun! Yeehaw!! ;D
serious crayons:
Tell you what, we are all irrational together, because I have done many of these same things. I have:
-- Been tempted to stop watching halfway through, like Mel and Amanda (I'm holding off on getting the DVD until I can't stand it no more -- which I guess is kind of irrational in itself -- but if I did I would stop it right after the "sending up a prayer of thanks" scene and try to convince myself that it ends there.) :-*
-- Gagged, like Flashframe, when I see Ennis and Alma's wedding. Also when they're sledding. I don't like seeing Ennis smile so happily at anyone other than Jack. :P
-- Been barely able to enjoy other films, like monimm. :'(
-- Also like monimm, lay awake in the middle of the night (hell, practically every night!) thinking of Ennis, Jack and the film. Not always hurtin, though! ;)
-- Insisted, like Lucise, that Ennis and Jack are real. What, are you implying they're not?! :o
Unlike Kirk, though, I have not binged on sex. If only!!!! ::)
