This is all about sweat, tears, blood, rain, snow, hail, and runny noses. That's right, this is one messy movie. I'd like to start by talking about the early years of Ennis's marriage, when the bedroom and adjoining nursery were filled with the smells of milk and baby shit and Jenny had a runny nose. Jenny also had an asthmatic wheeze. Hmmm, runny watery nose and windy breath...could Jenny be reminding Ennis of Jack? It's true he tugged on her ear and called her an angel one time, and then she seemed to disappear, altho Alma Jr. mentioned that she would be singing at the wedding. And why was she named Jenny instead of Francine as in the story? Is it because Jenny starts with a J, like Jack? Let's untangle some of these messy parts of the story together!
