"Q" is querulousness
« Reply #6600 on: August 25, 2006, 04:07:10 pm »
While up on Brokeback Mountain, screenplay Jack is more prone to querulousness than Ennis is.  Jack complains about Joe Aguirre's sleep-with-the-sheep order, the surplus of beans, the length of his commuting time, the smell of the pup tent....

def. = the quality of being given to complaining

"R" is robustious

John Twist’s actions in his own home revealed him as a robustious man.
 
Def: Coarse; rough; crude.

"U" is unforgettable

"Ang Lee's unmissable and unforgettable Brokeback Mountain hits you like a shot in the heart.  It's a landmark film and a triumph for Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal."

Both  Earl and Jack were viciously beaten to death; Earl in Wyoming and Jack in Texas.

"W" is wilder

Though Jack's chosen mare on Brokeback was wilder than the others, he preferred her that way.

"X" is xcuse
« Reply #6607 on: August 25, 2006, 06:34:38 pm »
Ennis panics because now he has to make a commitment or at least a decision when Jack shows up after the divorce, uses his daughters as his latest xcuse.

"Y" is Yun
« Reply #6608 on: August 25, 2006, 06:47:39 pm »
"Besides directors, actors also shared the joy of Lee's success.  International film star Chow Yun Fat, who worked together with Lee in the film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, said he was full of confidence that Lee would take the prize after viewing Brokeback Mountain.  He was sure Lee would be awarded the Best Picture Oscar for his talent in the future."

When it comes to "Y" words, I am grateful for Lashawn, the blue heelers, and Google.

"Z" is zealed
« Reply #6609 on: August 25, 2006, 07:54:05 pm »
Jack was zealed over the prospect of spending his life with Ennis, but became gradually morose as he accepted such a situation would never materialize.

Def: Full of zeal; characterized by zeal. (zeal: eagerness and ardent interest in pursuit of something: fervor)
