As Ennis came home with his horses, Alma was doing the wash.

"X" is xacted

The pressures of living their lives as closeted gay men xacted a terrible toll on the emotions of Jack Twist and Ennis del Mar.

"Y" is yo-yos
« Reply #6472 on: August 22, 2006, 01:01:42 pm »
Like Donny Osmond & The Osmonds' #1 song stated in 1971: "(Just like a) Yo-Yo"!  Did Ennis & Jack (in their 8th year 2gether) hear this song on the radio?  Of course they did -- as did all of North America and beyond.  BTW, E & J may have also had the single record and/or the record album! ;D

Ennis & Jack's relationship was posilutely like they were two emotional yo-yos!!


"Yo-Yo" {song}
"First he's up,
Then he's down.
U build me up to let me down,
But I dare not make a sound.
No matter what U say or do,
I'm gonna bounce right back to U.
Just like a yo-yo,
Just like a yo-yo!"

The BBM version would have been sung by Jack to Ennis!

Good vehicle seating observation; right U R!  Ennis is on the right and Jack is in the middle!  SE-md "sits" corrected as to who's really driving the pick-up truck.  BTW, it's ironic that U, the vintage vehicle owner, caught a "wheel" question!

=aside= Rangeress Lee
Speaking of your comment above (#6481), "U players talk a blue streak" (Ha! Ha! Ho!), plz. put Playerz in blue, Gyrl-Lee!

=aside= Sherlock
{This is a reply 2 your non-sensical 8-track tape sarcasm.}
FYI, "Yo-Yo" and other #1 million-selling Osmond songs are on their brand-new compact disc (c/d) "The Osmonds Anthology".  It appropriately contains another #1 timeless pop song that everybody knows: "One Bad Apple"! ::)

The title "Brokeback Mountain"
has been translated into the Czech language
 as "Zkrocená hora."

"A" is alibi
« Reply #6475 on: August 22, 2006, 01:34:28 pm »
Ennis's alibi was that Jack was his fishin' buddy.

"B" is bend
« Reply #6476 on: August 22, 2006, 03:08:02 pm »
"It is clear Ennis enjoys the ride, the silence of the high country.  Rounds a bend -- his horse suddenly balks, spooks, rears up:  a small black bear in the middle of the trail aacross a small stream.  Ennis is thrown, lands hard, rolls on the rocky ground."  [screenplay]

OMT (Old Man Twist) was an ornery old curmudgeon.

Though Ennis and Jack were lovers, it can be argued that they never once dated each other.

Jack and Ennis slept in tents up on Brokeback to protect themselves from the elements.

def. = wind, rain, etc., forces of the atmosphere
