Exactly WHEN does Jack decide.. th 1st tent scene..is gonna be th 1s tent scene?

jeez..I thought "two sanadwiches short of a picnic" was sort of sweet..no? NO..I'm sorry. (I remember now where it came from: chapter 7, "A Love Born From Steel"As for jACK BEING careful...and watching for signs from Ennis that he don't like what's going down..he persists through physical defensiveness, but doesn't reach for his belt buckle till Ennis is breathing as hard as he is...hey, we're not doing this just so we can relive the first tent scene, are we?
Maybe, a little...

Hi Friends,
It is Ennis who announces he's not going up to the sheep, but staying in camp til first light (letting Jack know how long he has to make his move). He doesn't have the courage to go into the tent at first, but he has enough courage that night to make himself available out there by the fire. BTW, one of my favorite moments of the movie is that groan of Ennis's as he lies down on the ground. And then he says something like, "Oh yeah, that's good," when Jack puts the blanket on him. It's a pretty uninhibited thing for Ennis to say.

I think it's fascinating how many different opinions there are...and I keep thinking, it probably has to do with our own experiences...I mean, what do you have, really, to judge the actions, motivations, plans and attractions of others against..besides your own?
The Asian Art Museum used to be the San Francisco Public Library (since 1917)--and we kept the original readingr-room ceiling. Nobody knows exactly who painted it. The head of volunteer services says she thinks it's a good Rorshark Test for the individuals, what they think it looks like: early 20th century arts and crafts, or a 16th century Italian palazo?
Maybe Ennis DIDN'T have to make all that noise...

I have GOT to get that DVD. I've been missing half the movie.
I don't think Jack was scheming from the get-go to get Ennis drunk and seduce him. On the other hand, I can't imagine him just drifting off to sound sleep knowing that the man of his dreams was finally lying in bed with him just inches away. At that point, I know I'D start doing some serious scheming.

I am TRYING like hell to send my last post--to the Direxctor of Volunteer Services at the Asain Art Museum--without sending the whole page! If I can't, I won't send anything...
