Due to Ennis’ marital situation and spending only sporadic time together, Jack became dismayed and frustrated throughout the course of their relationship.

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

"E" is enunciating

Some of us had to watch the film several times to get the dialogue; Ennis had a special way of enunciating.

Whether burnt or chewed, buttered or dry, we need our Toast daily.
Happy 1000 Mille-stone, my friend.

"F" is fade

We are back to the present as Jack older now, watches the pickup truck fade away into the distance, that dozy embrace solidified in his memory as the single moment of artless, charmed happiness in their separate and difficult lives.   [screenplay]

"G" is garnished

Jack garnished the Thanksgiving turkey with gravy, and a rosemary branch was held between its legs.

"H" is hiatus

Jack and Ennis experience a four-year hiatus between their summer on Brokeback and their initial reunion.
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

"I" is isolated

Annie's story is really about two isolated characters on an isolated mountain, and how a connection is formed there.

The dozy embrace occupied the junction between a dream and a memory in Jack's mind.

"K" is Kong's

"After the news of Ang Lee becoming the first Chinese director to win the Best Director Oscar for Brokeback Mountain, joy and delight spread through Hong Kong's film circle and filmmakers thought it is inspiring to local film production."

"L" is ludicrous
« Reply #6708 on: August 28, 2006, 10:23:44 am »
Ennis thought Jack's idea of having a life together was ludicrous -  judged from his remark: "You're a real thinker."
