"U" is unlovable

Ennis may have thought that he was unlovable until he met his true love.

After seeing what happened to Earl, the potentially negative consequences of two men living together would weigh heavily on Ennis's mind.

"A" is agriculturally

The areas where Jack and Ennis lived and worked were, agriculturally speaking, better suited to cattle and sheep ranching than to crop growing.

Jack and Ennis were forced to have a backdoor romance.

As Ennis Del Mar, Ledger emits the kind of loneliness that seeps into your bones like the dampness of a bad winter cold.

He's unvarnished, understated and stoic, fiercely determined to keep his longing, fury and grief pent up for the rest of his life.

Catharsis isn't permitted in his unforgiving cowboy world.

"When I met him, the moment I saw him, that was it. He nailed it," Lee says.

"He's the person that's the best to carry that western brooding mood - elegiac and fearful and violent, all the complexities, all the poetic qualities."

The film Brokeback Mountain is based on a finely written short story by Annie Proulx.

In TS1, Ennis gained entry with the help of a little glair and expectoration.
