To me, Jack's expression looks a lot like his expression in the Dozy Embrace scene.

Heya,
I'm bumping this thread because some of the themes discussed here have come up again in various other conversations.

Oh, I forgot another thing regarding Ennis and the denim jacket:

Ennis's tan jacket from their summer on Brokeback either is denim on the inside, or he wears a second, denim jacket under the tan one. I think it's the first, the tan jacket is denim blue on the inside.



The pic is from the "Shot a coyote, big son of a bitch, balls on him the size a apples" scene. Ennis warshing (but not yet everything he can reach  ;D) and Jack spills the beans. The photo captions of this scene are the only pics I've found where the inside of Ennis's tan jacket can be seen.

But in the very beginning, directly after Ennis exits the truck, he puts his jacket on. There you can also see the denim colored inside of the jacket for a split-second. Easier to detect in slow-motion.

It may look as if the lining is blue in the tan jacket, but having seen and worn the jacket in question, I can tell you that the lining is a blue and red plaid.

How dare they???



"You’re invited to discover that love is a force of nature…at Disney’s new musical, Frozen.

For the first time, Frozen comes to life on Broadway, re-imagined for the stage in a new production by an award-winning team.

This is the timeless tale of two sisters, pulled apart by a mysterious secret. Both are searching for love. They just don’t know how to find it.

The show’s expanded score features twice as many songs as the original film, all written by the husband-and-wife composing team of Kirsten Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez."

Isn't that copyright infringement? I recall James Shamus wrote that tag line.  :-\

That's just silly ( I mean the use of the line here, not the copyright infringement).

Are they getting Jonathan Groff to reprise his voice acting?  ;D

I heard that on the radio as well.



Tell him when l come up to him and ask to play the record, l'm gonna say: ''Voulez-vous jouer ce disque?''
'Voulez-vous, will you kiss my dick?'
Will you play my record? One-track mind!

I went and left a post on the FB page, and saw that Lee beat me to it.

:laugh:


I don't believe that phrase is protected, because it's not the first time it's happened.
