DIRECTOR JAKETWIST:

((trailer door opens, slowly this time, and JAKETWIST pokes her head out then gives a smile))

**Well you're back! I am so glad that you're still on the set! I would have hated to miss you, MISS SPARTA, may I call you LAUREL? Sorry I could not break away before; y'see I was on a conference call with Jim and Ang, they were just bringing me up to speed on the latest developments over at OOC. I suppose you have already heard all about them....

I know that YOUNG JACK has been filling you in on what's been goin' on over here, do you have any more questions that I can answer for you? I am very relieved to tell you that our show is back in full motion, it was touch and go for a while with all the cast turnover. Glad that's over for a while...**

((looks expectantly at LAUREL SPARTA))

LAUREL SPARTA:

**Jim and Ang? Why would..... nevermind. No, I think all of my questions have been answered. I am, however, very anxious to see this wedding over and done with so that we can resume the production.**

The New Yorker Magazine

Just a note to remind everyone that it was on October 13, 1997
NINE YEARS AGO
that Annie Proulx saw the publication of
Brokeback Mountain
in this edition of The New Yorker Magazine.

since then it has appeared in their magazine as
a movie review,
a spoken word recording by Suzy Amis
and grist for their cartoons

What if I dont want to be Jack or Ennis.

Thank You Annie and The New Yorker
for getting Brokeback off to a start.

** Gradually, the supernumeraries on set get impatient...**

** Then, suddenly, a thundering voice is heard from above, just at the 9th anniversary of the publication of ~~Broken Arsed Mountain~~ Brokeback Mountain in the New Yorker...**

** Thanks for the picture, Toast! **

LAUREL SPARTA:

((sighs))

%% I wonder if I should call the Producer, this is getting ridiculous... the audience is getting bored... things are taking much longer than I was expecting they would.%%

((Laurel crosses herself and makes a quick prayer to heaven at the mention of the Producer.))

**JACK!!!!!!!**

**Yes'm... What can I do ya fer?**

((Jack tips his hat again.))
