The beginning of Brokeback takes place during the Sixties, the era of sex, drugs and rock n' roll, all of which are included, to some extent, in the movie.

Jake Gyllenhaal: This is the first time I've ever played a character spanning a long period of time. Ang said, it's not only the makeup and the wardrobe but also the voice and the movement and the behaviour - everything combined into one. He made me feel empowered.   [Production Notes]

The whole crew of Jack, Ennis, the sheep and other animals flowed up the mountain like dirty water.

bestiality can also mean brutality, which applies to Earl.

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

Linda Higgins:  "That'll be thirty cents." (smiles at him, likes him) "Big investment."
Ennis lays out a quarter and a nickel.  [Leaves.]   [screenplay]

After agreeing to switch jobs with Jack, Ennis rode Cigar Butt up to where the sheep slept, carrying leftover biscuits, a jarful of jam, and a jarful of coffee with him for the next day.

It’s a heartbreaking story of working-class people, men and women, trying to make a living, trying to do the right thing, imprisoned by limited options, prejudice and fear.   PWW.org
