It's amazing what I can do when the lights go out

[David In Indy]

First of all, let me set the stage for you.

It is 10:15 pm, and I am just about to watch "Brokeback Mountain" for the umpteenth time, and suddenly the power goes out. There is a massive thunderstorm moving through Indianapolis (the tornado sirens were even sounding), my boyfriend Cory is snoring like a freight train upstairs (yes, he sleeps like the dead... nothing can wake him up) and my 2 year old golden retriever Cody is frightened to death from the storm. So I sat down on the floor to comfort my dog who is shaking like a leaf,  and hoping the power would come back on soon (it took 4 hours). Sheesh! Life in Indiana.

Suddenly I began thinking about "Brokeback Mountain". And you know what? I "watched" Brokeback Mountain from beginning to end in my mind. (It is too  late now, but tomorrow I am going to go check and see if I missed anything). I actually saw the whole movie in my mind! I watched it. All of it, I think.

Can anyone else do this? I sure hope I am not the only one!

Boy! Talk about an obsession! Maybe I better get some therapy!! 

[Ellemeno]

I have done this too, but imperfectly.  There have been nights that that is the only way I can get myself to leave here and go to bed.  I haven't done it in a while, I might be better at it now, but there always has come a point where I bog down and get confused about what comes next.  But I'm sure I can do it better than 95% of the world population (though sure not 95% of THIS population).

I have started having urges for the short story again, which I haven't read in maybe a couple of months.  That might be a good goal, to memorize the story and be able to recite it, letting the panels slide forward.  Help keep the Alzheimer's at bay too.

[welliwont]

What a good idea, David!  I'm gonna try that!

[gattaca]

I have done this - but it's done in individual scenes:

* When I'm walking around the desert terrain in the morning.
* Just as I turn the lights out and I am waiting for sleep - I play out scenes
* If there's a visual trigger during my day (a man wearing a Stetson standing in front of a mailbox, for instance)

The soundtrack plays constantly in my head.

[David In Indy]

Well, I am certainly happy to hear I am not the only one who does it!

What a good idea, David!  I'm gonna try that!

Give it a try! You will probably amaze yourself at how much of the movie you can actually remember! It's pretty cool!

But I'm sure I can do it better than 95% of the world population (though sure not 95% of THIS population).

If you are in the top 5%, you must be in the same group I am!

Oh , the desert would be the PERFECT place to think about Brokeback Mountain! I sure wish I lived near to one. My neighbor's sandbox is the closest thing to a desert around here!

David -
I have posted some photos of the desert terrain close to my home where I do my walking tours - there's open desert in all directions and much of it remains unspoiled.

[David In Indy]

Gattaca -

I just looked at your pictures and they are AWESOME!!! The scenery is awesome too. You are so lucky to live there and be able to see beautiful things like this every day.

Someday I will post some pictures of where I live. (Get your vomit bag ready though!). It's not really that bad; it is just boring.

Actually Indiana does have some very beautiful places (people are often surprised when they come here), but it is not even close to the beauty where you live.

[ednbarby]

I've done this, too, David.  I haven't gone all the way from beginning to end, but I've projected certainly the first third in minute detail in my mind several times.  It's often the way I lull myself to sleep, in fact.  When I'm still awake when it's time for Ennis to get married, I skip that part, and pretty much any other part that doesn't involve Ennis and Jack being together.  It would sound crazy to pretty much anyone outside of this board and others like it, but I figure there are far more damaging (and ultimately less enjoyable) ways to bring on sleep than that. 

[David In Indy]

LOL. I often "fast forward" through the wife scenes when I watch it in my mind too! This may help explain why I can watch it all in 45 minutes.... or something like that!

[wolf]

I always skip the Alma scenes - except for her little star turn at the reunion.  I love the stark contrast between her 'mysery face' and the boys' soaring, devastating, euphoria.  Lureen I leave in  . 

Must time the wife-less version of the movie and see if it is indeed, 45 mins!

Nice to "meet" you wolf. Thanks for posting! Yes, I really do think I skip through the wives.. at least most of the time anyway!

I often fast forward through the wife scenes when I watch it on DVD! Especially if I'm pressed for time. Still can't make it in 45 minutes, though. 

[bbm_stitchbuffyfan]

Part of me always wants to exclude the wives from the story. I mean, I think they were portrayed wonderfully and they are very well-written characters (and I honestly do sympathize with them). I suppose that's cause, usually, their presence means one of the boys is longing for the other and it makes me feel their despair. (Which is freakin' BRILLIANT.)

I haven't tried rewatching the entire movie in my head but many a times, I've gone and rewatched certain scenes in my head. Last night, for example, I triggered the very first shot and it's parallel shot in the ending (that sounds random but I just thought of them -- and felt so empty) and then after that, jumped to the Lureen telephone call and I was totally haunted by the "He always said it was his place" line. Many times, I'll recite Jack's "You have no idea how bad it gets" monologue in my head.

[Karan13]

Hey David,
               I often inject aspects of the movie into my own life , and i do sometimes go to bed , up on Brokeback. I picture you stroking the dog tenderly , like Heath did , when Jake removed a thorn from the sheeps foot , it`s so easy to let your mind carry you away, and as i`ve always said the strength and power of this movie finishes within your own mind. I feel that is why it has `Got` us so bad , it`s what happens in your heart and head that makes you want to keep going up that Mountain , and staying there no matter what . xxx Kaz

As always Karan, you said it perfectly! 

I sure am glad to see you back posting on the boards too!

Buffy -

I randomize things too. Quite often I will just "jump" to my favorite parts, such as Ennis turning and smiling to Jack as they are riding their horses side by side. Or the second tent scene.

I just really surpirsed myself the other night when I did all this. I suppose it helps when the power is out and there is absolutely nothing to do. It gave me a chance to really think in detail. And I was surpirsed at how much I did remember... almost like the movie is etched into my memory now.

[wolf]

David, it's official.  I'm going to do a wife-less screening and time it  .

can't do it in my head though, owing to a couple of children demanding parental participation in their own 'life of the mind'  .  Will do it tonight with DVD - right after LOST  .

guess I'll cut at the end of Ennis' alley breakdown, back on for Jack's visit to Aguirre the next summer, and cut again til reunion.  Oops, forgot Jimbo and Ennis on the road gang  .  Jimbo I can live without, but I'll include him in the interests of scientific accuracy!  A shame I'll have to miss Randall though - I just love everything about that scene, and everyone in it!

back with full report tomorrow - hopefully!

Hey Wolf! Yes, please do give me/us a full report. I'm going to be very curious.

[serious crayons]

You guys have much more mental discipline than I do. I'll think, OK, now I'm going to replay [whatever scene] in my mind. But as it goes along, I'll get distracted. Something will make me think of a different scene. Or remind me of something I've read here. Or give me an idea I'd like to post.

Tell you what, though -- you know how they say that people who are prisoners of war or kept in solitary confinement are able to stay sane by going over some book or plan or whatever in their minds, detail by detail? Well, if that ever happens to me, I will emerge knowing every single frame, every blade of grass or drop of water or gust of wind, in Brokeback Mountain.

Well to be perfectly honest with you, when I did it, the power was out, it was at night, and the only sound I heard was from Cory snoring upstairs. With noise and distractions, it would be much more difficult. But, you will probably begin to notice that evertime you watch Brokeback Mountain, it gets easier and easier!

[serious crayons]

Well, now I'm curious, David. How many times have you watched it? For me, it's "only" 14 -- about five times as often as I've ever watched any other movie, but in this crowd, it's practically newbie.

Oh wow! How many stars in the sky?

I don't know for sure. I saw it 7 times at the theatre, and when I first bought the DVD I was watching it at least once a day for  a few weeks. Now I probably watch it 3 or 4 times a week. So, how long has the DVD been released (I bought it the very first day it went on sale). I'm not really great at math..... just a guess..... maybe 50? Is that bad? Am I obsessed?

Sorry, but I really don't know for sure. I lost count somewhere over the weeks and months!

[serious crayons]

Am I obsessed?

Yes -- but in a good way! The same way we all are!

[David In Indy]

Yes -- but in a good way! The same way we all are!

Thanks for reminding me it is a good obsession.

When I first bought the DVD, I watched it every night when I got home from work, and sometimes two or even three times a day on the weekends.

I am not  quite that obsessed with it anymore, but still obsessed none the less.

[wolf]

Sorry David, didn't quite get around to the Wife-free version last night  .

LOST was very  making and I think it ruined me for anything sensible!  Planning to try again tonight tho  .

incidentally, 50 viewings is impressive

Oh well. Shucks! Well, if you do attempt it again tonight, be sure to let us know how it went!

And here I was all set to find out how it went for you. Well, as my dear mom use to say "all good things to those who wait".

[serious crayons]

Somebody should time the various ways to watch:

Entire movie  : 134 minutes
No wives version: XX minutes
Only the good parts  version: XX minutes
Only the REALLY good parts  version: XX minutes
Only the REALLY REALLY good parts    version: X minutes ...  (note single digit )
Totally happy  version (cut at "sending up a prayer of thanks): XX minutes
Only Ennis and Jack together  version: XX minutes
Only sad parts version  : XXX minutes (note triple digits, though it might seem like  quadruple digits!)

Anyway .... yes, I can see the whole film in my mind. I am as obsessed as you ... I have lost count of the times I have watched this and it never gets old. I wish I could slow down, but I just can't give up my "fix" .... my "drug of choice". It doesn't hurt that these two guys are incredibly sexy!

[Luvlylittlewing]

Wow David, you're good!  I never thought about replaying the entire movie in my head, even at the midnight hour!  I'll have to try it.  I think I can do it, too! 

I usually just let the visions unfold as they will, and I never quite know which scene will play out and when.  I can't help it, but the send night in the tent usually takes hold every night and if it does not keep me awake, will comfort me enough to allow me to sleep.  That image of Jack cuddling Ennis, kissing his hair and...oh well, you know... it is so sweet, so sexy, so right!  Watching Brokeback from beginning to end in my mind?  I can't think of anything more pleasant to fill the ocassional empty hours!

Littlewing - Yes, give it a try sometime! You will probably surprise yourself. It's really cool!

I love that second tent scene too. My favorite scene in the movie (and you probably already know because I have said it so many times on IMDb) is when Jack and Ennis are riding side by side on their horses and Ennis looks over to Jack and flashes that beautiful smile. I don't think Jack saw this because he continued to look forward the whole time. But I like to think he caught this smile out of the corner of his eye. I don't know why I love this scene so much. But I do!

Hi David925:

I think you have mentioned that scene twice now, in the past couple of days, and I'm still not sure which one you mean...  Not the one about playing the harmonica and scarin' off the sheep, no?

Are you speaking of a much later camping trip, when they are riding together and their horses are ever so close, almost touching?  Is that the scene?

'Cause in that scene, I love how the horses are justsoclose together, makes me think that they just want to get as close as they can to each other, (Ennis and Jack, not LSP and Cigar Butt  )  even while out riding.  I sure wish Ang Lee hadn't scrimped so much on the tender moments of the later years.  That's why I find fanfic such a comfort these days, especially since I am suffering through a viewing embargo of the DVD and of Youtube.

Please let me know will ya, 'cause I don't specifically remember Ennis smiling, and that's just not right.

Hi Jane! Actually I love both those scenes. My favorite one though is when Ennis tells Jack he is going to scare the sheep away (Jack is playing the harmonica in that scene). If you look real close, just after Ennis finishes talking, he looks back over to Jack and gives him a beautiful smile. It is a cute, sexy, beautiful, sincere smile. I can watch that scene over and over again. I don't know why I love it so much. But I do!

Jane... if you have the DVD, you can see the "Ennis  smile" if you jump to  the time 37:00:00 on your DVD player. You have to look closely, and to get a better look at the smile, pause it and  then zoom in on Ennis. (I do it all the time!). If you do, you will se what I am talking about. I would love to find a screen cap of Ennis in that scene. I'm still scouring the internet for one, and I haven't foundit yet! I'm going to keep looking though!

[David In Indy]

Jane... When I posted that last message, I received a warning alerting me that both you and I posted a message at the same time!

But, I'm going to go ahead and leave the message there just in case someone else might want to take a closer look at the Ennis Smile.

I strongly encourage everyone to do so! It'll make your day. I guarantee it!

Hi David925:

Thanks for pointing out where to catch it on the DVD, unfortunately I have instituted an indefinite embargo on watching BBM.  So I won't be able to go look for it...  but... I know the smile you are speaking of!!  The one when Jack is playing the harmonica. I thought that there was a second scene of Ennis smiling at Jack that I could not remember, but I guess not.

[serious crayons]

David, I love how you know the exact time that moment occurs on your DVD player. And I agree, that is a very cute scene.

I can't think of anything more pleasant to fill the ocassional empty hours!

So true, littlewing! You know, it used to always annoy me if I got stuck waiting somewhere -- bank line, doctor's office, whatever -- and I didn't have a book or magazine to read. I hate just sitting there, waiting, bored. Now I never mind at all; there's always something I can be thinking about that's more enjoyable than anything I could be reading. In fact, even if I DO have a book or magazine, I'm likely not concentrating very well on it, anyway.

Diane - That is funny because just after I created this thread I began wondering what people would think when they read the  subject line. It does sound a little tricky doesn't it?

I sure am glad to hear you can see the whole movie in your mind. And you live in Indiana too! Two Hoosiers who can watch Brokeback Mountain in their minds! Not too bad for a pair of Midwesterners!

I love that scene (as I love so many). Ennis definitely smiles. I think it shows his unadulterated love for Jack. He is more open to his feelings because he is in the freedom of BBM. It is always in the mountains where Ennis can show his unfettered passion (for Jack). The tragedy is that he cannot allow himself to transfer that love, that passion off of the mountain. With Jack, Ennis can be his authentic self. Jack is the only one who truly knows and understands Ennis. Ohhhhhh!! This just makes me so sad!

Diane - I think you hit the nail on the head. That smile does show Ennis' unadulterated love for Jack. I always thought it was so sexy and sweet looking, but I always knew there was something more to it  than simply being a "cute smile".

I can really see Ennis' love for Jack in that smile. I sure wish I could find a screen shot (cap) of that scene somewhere on the Internet. I would turn it into wallpaper for my computer.

You know what really annoys me? All of the pictures with Heath and Michelle since they are a couple in real  life. Drives me nuts! This story is about Ennis and Jack. Get the women out of it! (am I not terrible!?  )

You're not terrible at all!  It is funny that you should say this, because I feel the same way - keep the women out.  I hate to admit it sometimes, but I get angry when I see scenes of the boys with their wives, especially Jack and Lureen, for some reason.  Yes, keep the girls out of it!

I love how you said "Show  the good stuff"!

As a matter of fact, I am going to try something...

[David In Indy]

Show the good stuff! 

Diane - Here is the good stuff (in my opinion anyway!)...

Sorry about the quality of the pics. I took the pictures from my television screen...

There is that beautiful smile I keep talking about....

Zooming in just a little bit...

Zooming in a little bit more.... ah, THERE we go!

If anyone knows where I can find these screen shots on the Internet, "I sure would be obliged to ye", as Ennis would say!

This is amazing!  Oh, look how lovingly Ennis looks at Jack.  I think about those loving looks in the middle of the night when I can't sleep.  Ennis liked to look at Jack and I think it is so endearing.  Okay, I won't get started!  Getting up right now and walking it off of me!!

I'd have to agree, I love the look Ennis is giving Jack in this shot. Thanks for the zooming in!! I will be thinking about that shot all night now!!

No. Thank You for letting me know I am not the only one who thinks about it all the time!

[Midnight24]

Haha!! Well, you are very welcome!  I guess it feels good to know that someone out there is thinking about the same thing you are...especially if it's something so wonderful as that beautiful smile Ennis gives!!

Are you two Heathens (you are Heathens, are you not?) acquainted with Ennis and Ellery (fanfic)?

I am definately a  Heathen. However I don' think people are paying me a compliment when they call me this here in Indiana.
