Both Jack and Ennis succumbed to their mounting sexual desires in Tent Scene 1.

"T" is tall

"This is Jack Twist:  like Ennis, a rough country boy with little education but somewhat different in appearance and attitude, a little less stoic, a little more of a dreamer.  More welcoming, appealing, with a quick laugh. Twenty, but not as tall as Ennis, more compact and muscular, thick, dark hair, worn jeans, bullrider's belt buckel, faded shirt, stubbly beard, cowboy hat, boots worn to the quick."  [screenplay]

"U" is ultimately

 ... But I think that if "Brokeback" speaks powerfully to gay and non-gay audiences alike, it is because the film articulates not only the tragedy of true love constrained and ultimately defeated by homophobia, but because it speaks to the tragedy of life not truly lived.   From Brokeback Mountain to Walden Pond

"Jack removes the bandanna from around his neck, wads it up, takes the whiskey from Ennis, and pours some into the bandanna.  Raises the bandanna to Ennis's forehead."  [screenplay]

Ennis continued to xempt himself from Jack’s requests for a life together.  ;D

Jack and Ennis' youthy attraction for each other grows into a mature lifelong love.

Paula Zahn:  "The great American western is crossing a new frontier in just a few days. "Brokeback Mountain," a movie as controversial as it is acclaimed will show up in movie theaters all over the country."

"A" is authentic
« Reply #5999 on: August 11, 2006, 12:28:43 pm »
 The authentic life is there for the living, and the deepest tragedy of "Brokeback Mountain” is the refusal of Ennis to accept Jack’s invitation to live it.    From Brokeback Mountain to Walden Pond
