Hey Diane, Littlewing and any other IMdB friends...
I've been on vacation and out of circulation for about a week and a half, but I'm back now...
Poor Ennis, so stunted and repressed on so many levels. He just can't seem to get out of his own way.
I find myself shaking my head at Ennis whenever he can't respond to Jack or give back to Jack what they BOTH need so desperately - their love with and for each other! But, at the same time, I guess part of me does understand him, if not be totally frustrated with him, too.
These two characters have made us SOOO believe in their love and passion for each other, that we, the viewers, get all crazy and defeated in their inability to be truly together. It is the genious of this film, isn't it? We are HOOKED, totally and utterly HOOKED...
