May start another thread - controversial though - Hmmm - give me a day ..

In answer to the original question, I took it to mean:  Heath and Jake "made love" in the movie as Ennis and Jack, but Heath and Michelle, lovers in real life, got the baby.  I think it was just Jake being clever.  

[Ellemeno]

I've heard him say it twice - Oprah and somewhere else.  And didn't Heath then say it sort of more recently?

Do I think he meant it that the actual real people Heath and Jake made love, no.

[injest]

but he didn't say Ennis....he said HEATH!!  

 

ok...like you all don't have a vision in ya heads right now....

 

[Katie77]

Yeah, I think Jake said that on the Oprah show......and he probably used the term "make love" rather than "screwed" or "f***ed", because it was on TV....and it was just a cever remark that was made by not only him, but others on the set of the movie.

Now I'm gonna ask a question, which I hope doesnt upset the Heathens on here, but I have often thought, (wondered), whether Heath latched on to Michelle, and obviously did a lot of lovin' with her during the movie, in order to confirm his own herosexuality to the public and to himself....knowing that there would be publicity about his union with Michelle and so maybe take out any thoughts, if anyone had them, that he was gay.

Anyone else ever think that there was this ulterior motive to their union?

And just as a postscript, from what I have seen of Heath and Michelle they seem to be very happy and secure, so I'm not insinuating that their union was merely just a publicity stunt.

This is ridiculously OT, but everytime I see Entertainment Weekly's URL, I think for a split second that it means, "eeewwwww."

Note: Filming ended in August-September 2004. The baby was not born until October 2005. So, uh...

So Michelle ended up pregnant for the extra months that were missing from Lureen's pregnancy with Bobby?

  OK, that explains everything!

Now if we'd only discover that Heath dated Michelle for most of the five years that Ennis was supposedly dating Cassie. Or is Naomi Watts Cassie? This is getting too confusing.

  Priceless typo, Sue 
Forget Superman - today's man is Superheath  I wonder what special qualities he owns to qualify him for being called herosexual

I must remember to use spell check in future......
