"G" is gravestones

Ennis passes the Twist family plot surrounded by
sagging sheep wire, a tiny fenced square on the welling prairie, a few graves and a few tilted gravestones, bright with plastic flowers.   [screenplay]

"Ennis's breath came slow and quiet, he hummed, rocked a little in the sparklight, and Jack leaned against the steady heartbeat, the vibrations like faint electricity... [short story]

"Confidentally directed by Ang Lee and featuring sensitive and powerful performances by Jake Gyllenhaal and a breathtaking Heath Ledger, this film is determined to involve us in the naturalness and even inevitability of its epic, complicated love story."

"J" is jilt

Ennis chose to jilt Cassie in this manner:  he simply ignored her.

"K" is knee-deep

According to Eye Weekly,  Heath Ledger said he and Jake Gyllenhaal instantly respected each other just for committing to the project. "We were like, 'Good on ya -- well done. So let's do this job now -- we're knee-deep and there's no way out.'"

August is a hot new month and it starts the second half of the Summer of 2006, like a brand-new season.  While DeeDee & I were on the phone tonite -- she s/w Dre earlier -- the month changed from July to August.  Later, when Fran & I were speaking on the telly, the month changed from July to August in her Chicago time zone.  Mid-summer can be a time for renewal.  August is also the month that Ennis & Jack came down from Brokeback Mountain -- but posilutely not their last August 2gether.  Let's play.............       


Jack was licensed to drive the various pickups {double entendre} he had -- plus the big farm equipment vehicles for daddy-in-law Newsome.

Jack revs the engine a few times, then puts it in neutral and pulls on the emergency brake. [Script instructions]

"O" is oversimplified
« Reply #5349 on: August 01, 2006, 08:04:30 am »
Ennis projected an outward appearance of having an oversimplified personality, while in reality he was internally complex and tormented.

Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.
