"E" is enjoys

Cassie and Ennis are the only people on the dance floor. It is immediately clear that Ennis cannot dance. But Cassie doesn't mind, makes the most of the moment, enjoys herself, shaking the funk out of her ass, letting her hair fly.    [screenplay]

Joe Aguirre sits with his feet on his desk, flipping through a newspaper, chewing on a toothpick.

Unable to stand it any longer, Ennis reluctantly gets up from the campfire and walks toward the tent containing the gorgeous Jack.  ;)

Awkwardly (Ennis) pulls up his jeans, leaving the safe harbour of selective memory little room to deny the act.     Quiet mastery .. JWR.

"I" is innate

I think the story for me was this incredibly masculine figure who had this innate love for a soul in another man.

Ennis was able to jimmy the carburetor of Jack's old truck so it would start.

The Basque taught Ennis how to load the mules and secure everything with the correct knot.

"L" is lurked

Sadness due to time passing all too quickly lurked in Ennis's and Jack's minds when they were apart - and when they were together.

Scene:  Higgins Gift Shop

Miss Higgins owned the gift shop where Ennis ordered and returned to buy the BBM postcard to hang in his closet with "the two shirts".  (Unfortunately, they did not show those gift shop scenes in the BBM movie.)

"N" is nightfall
« Reply #6039 on: August 12, 2006, 09:29:00 pm »
By nightfall it turned colder. Jack and Ennis passed a joint back and forth, the fire burning late, Jack restless and bitching about the cold, poking the flames with a stick, twisting the dial of the transistor radio until the batteries died.   [short story]
