"Q" is quotations

There are many notable quotations from the film, including Ennis' line "For all I know he done the job" referring to his father's possible role in the brutality callously inflicted upon Earl.

Rich could take away the body of Earl, but only the rains could wash away the signs of brutality in the irrigation ditch.

The emotional wreckage that Earl's death had on Ennis was lifelong.

"X" is xpelliarmus

The sight of Ennis's bloodied face after the bear incident served to disarm Jack's gripes and ire just as well as any xpelliarmus spell ever cast at Hogwarts.

=comment=
In my opinion the Harry Potter universe has become a part of popular culture to the extent that the frequently used spells (Including Expelliarmus: Disarming spell) can be deemed the equivalent of "popularly known foreign language words".  :)

You people are something entirely and creatively else with your inspired posts about........  :o brutality.

Mr. Del Mar had a message for his sons:  "This brutality could happen to yourselves."

"Z" is zincous

Beans, like the BetterMost ones consumed by Jack and Ennis while up on Brokeback Mountain, are zincous; they contain zinc.
