"M" is melodies

Jack used his harmonica to create unique melodies, much to Ennis’ chagrin.

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

"O" is occurs

As the following action occurs, we pull away to the night landscape, and we only hear the sounds - the belt being unbuckled, rustle of jeans, Ennis spitting, sharp intakes of breath ....   [screenplay]

"Q" is queller

With Alma busy in the kitchen, Ennis takes on the role of queller as he attempts to calm his crying daughters.

"R" is retrospect

 ... And I did find Brokeback Mountain more powerful in retrospect, when its tone and images and emotions lingered beyond all its elevated Oscar-worthiness.    Lasso Me Tender

"S" is sissy

In Ennis's world, it was downright dangerous to be thought of as a sissy.

"T" is trophies

"Jack and Lureen's home.  Wall-to-wall carpeting, fairly luxurious, particularly in comparison to Ennis's life.  Many photos of Lureen winning barrel-racing trophies.  One of Jack, the one taken in the arena the day they met."  [screenplay]

"U" is understandable

It is understandable that Jack would be frustrated after 16 years of trying to convince Ennis that they can have a life together.
