Both Alma and Lureen wear nightgowns in the film - one looks like flannel, the other looks like silk.

"S" is shortchanged
« Reply #17976 on: August 26, 2008, 07:48:40 pm »
Ennis went back to ranch work, hired on here and there, not getting much ahead but glad enough to be around stock again, free to drop things, quit if he had to, and go into the mountains at short notice.  He had no serious hard feelings, just a vague sense of getting shortchanged, and showed it was all right by taking Thanksgiving dinner with Alma and her grocer and the kids, sitting between his girls and talking horses to them, telling jokes, trying not to be a sad daddy.

Jack sat drinking whiskey with Ennis outside the tent, tickling his tonsils with a boisterous rendition of "Water Walking Jesus."

While peeling potatoes, Jack tried to appear as cool as a cucumber by ignoring Ennis' unclothed body.
