It appears that John C. Twist and his wife only had one child:  a son named Jack who predeceased them before his fortieth birthday.

Round 702!

Round
 


Post should include some form of the number two such as:
the two mortages on Ennis's parents ranch
two five-dollar bills in Ennis's tobacco can
the Thresher lost two months earlier
the moon notched past two
the two of them on the mountain flying in the bitter, euphoric air...

or numbers like 24, 1972 or
the 42 zapped sheet

The end credits list two editors for Brokeback Mountain:  Geraldine Peroni and Dylan Tichenor, ACE.

=FYI=
ACE after a film editor's name means that he or she is a member of the American Cinema Editors, an honorary society of motion picture editors founded in 1950.  Film editors are voted into membership on the basis of their professional achievements, their dedication to the education of others and their commitment to the craft of editing.
