Topic: Cutest Jack scenes and Sexiest Jack scenes

[vedrana]

Whatever he might have said or didn't say in that scene, he absolutely melts you with that look!

Can't say no more!

.... even so, when I heard his invitation in spoken words .... Uh! That was overwhelming! 

[vedrana]

There's Jack's scene, not so romantic, but one of my favorite outside E&J relationship. Thats the scene in Jack's home during Thanksgiving day! When he FINALY got the courage to oppose and to stood up against Lureen's father, but also support his wife! Jake's act was great.

Maybe some will not agree, but there are a very few places in the movie where I found Jake's acting a bit shallow. Interesting thing's that the most difficult scenes he did beyond perfectly. One of them is the scene mentioned above where he showed a bit of nervousness, but strong determination to finish the old man's ascendancy, unjustly taken in Jack's own house. In that scene Lureen just showed that she looked upon her husband! Jack was fabulous!  When he pointed 2 fingers at old man and said  "Now you sit down you son....!" mm-mm.... great! Old man just set down without the word, and Jack stood up to cut the turkey! Yessss! He was so firm and masculine in that scene!

Absolutely, Loreen!  I love this scene.  Of course having Jake in tight black jeans helped!!!    And I love the little squeeze on the shoulder that he gives Lureen as he passes behind her on his way back to the table.  This tells me that even though he and Lureen don't have a love relationship in the traditional sense, at least he has caring and affection for her.  Jack's big heart and all.

Oh, yes! He lived a life he surely didn't like, but perfectly fit anywhere. I can imagine how much effort it took to get along with everyone and every difficult situation, thinking only of those 2-3 weeks a year when he'll be able to embrace his only friend and lover! He was a strong and heroic character to endure for so many years, without complaint, without pressure, just love and lust! Priceless! Jack!

I agree with u loreen about the scene with Jack..I loved the way Jack puts his father in law straight..He is very emotive and he made himself clear....I beg to differ on only one thing dear that I never found Jake’s acting shallow...Although I respect your opinion a lot..I loved the way u have expressed in all the posts and I know how strongly u feel for Ennis and Jack....It would be nice to know as to why u felt so about Jake…I can say that there were scenes where he looked a little submissive and blank but I think that it was needed…It was needed as he wanted to be strong for Ennis…he wanted to control of his emotions in front of Ennis. I think he was devastated when Ennis told him that they could not live together but he is so calm ..Oh God, there must be wirlpool of emotions within him that time…I love Jack so very much...

U have explained Jack so very beautifullly ..Jack is my hero..He is very strong..He knew what he wanted and always went for it..He held onto Ennis because he was the true love of his life…Jack knew that he can never love anyone as much as he loves Ennis..Ennis meant the world to him ..When he is driving for 14 hours to meet Ennis the look on his face is so beautiful...imagine 14 hours he must be just thinking only about how he will spend time with Ennis…. so much excitement,. so much eagerness..so much thrill ....so much pure happiness...so much love….I love those expressions…

Well Cleo,

e.g. I found some parts of FC  a bit shallow....

Very easy parts, and I am sure that no one pay attention to it... but in my mind when E&J confronted about Mexico, Jake wasn't so convincing to me.... he looked as he was thinking "ok, this is Heath's line, I'll wait for mine"    .

There are many soooo much more difficult scenes than FC where he was  ( ( ( too good to be true! I really admire him for his talent. He was tremendous and I like his talent a lot. But FC... he could've done it better!. Heath was P E R F E C T there!

You know that i  Jack,  but I am a bit harsh to Jake... 

[vedrana]

Another scene come to my mind and I've always found it funny...

Evening before FNIT, E&J are drinking, and after singing so loudly, suddenly Jack says with so much importance that his Ma's in the "Pentecostal"... Ennis asks very politely- What is "Pentecostal". Well my folks was methodists.' And he looks at waiting Jack for the answer. But Jack seriously answers: Pentecostal?? I have NO IDEA WHAT PENTACOSTAL IS.... 

That scene is hilarious to me, but Ennis stayed so serious like a boy waiting for his father's verdict about beating him or not.

Anyway the scene goes in the different direction, and for the first time they discussed about the "sin" and "sinners" ... 

[myprivatejack]

Yes,it's funny Ennis face,and somehow important,as it's the first time that they speak about sin and sinners,as you say,but applying to themselves in a indirect way.I mean how Ennis "flirts" with Jack when he talks about his "opportunities",how Jack answers to this-that "huuummm"...-and how Ennis,not so innocent takes a look at the other's "opportunities" after saying that.Lovely ¡.

Ennis showed for the first time there what mischief he can be! But it was rather nice and warm scene!  ... and it lead them into the first experience ...

Yes, I do love that scene.  There was spontaneous applause from the audience during the several viewings I had in 2005/2006.  IT was cute, pathetic, sexy, and deep all at the same time.

I didn't find his acting shallow in any scene, but I would surely love to know where you thought it was.

His honesty was really quite endearing.  I think it is also very reflective of how a lot of people are raised to believe but not to question or understand.  Again, it is both funny and revealing of human nature.

I know that I am such a pain.... , but as I said, during a very few moments in the FC scene, Jake/Jack seemed as he was waiting Heath/Ennis to finish his line, so he can speak up... And I  ALWAYS get that immpression when I watch movie (The truth is... I watch it every day  )

Anyway, it is only my impression and I can be completely wrong about those few moments during the whole scene (cca 7 min!)!

What do you think about it?

Are you referring to the scene when Ennis threatens Jack and spits on the ground?

Maybe,if I've understood well enough what you mean,Jack is waiting for some kind of reaction on Ennis part.Not only the aggressive reaction that he has,but some affective reaction,some answer to the kind of love declaration he's making-because I also think that this whole scene is a love's declaration in itself,as Thomas,I think,said...-.

I watched the film the day before yesterday and I have cried and was so was over whelmed, sad and so dam emotional…

I think before the topic of Mexico comes up Ennis is telling Jack he will be meeting him in November and Jack gets upset and angry about that...Jack slams the door of the car so hard..he is so dam annoyed and he emotes that exceptionally well…Then the topic of Mexico comes up… When I think about that scene when Ennis and Jack confront about Mexico Jack is already angry...But he is quite for a while..he is thinking about the 20 years and about all the regret..I think his silence speaks a lot in that moment...I think that, that silence was more killing than anything that Jack said as that silence showed that Jack is so hurt and felt kept aside..Jake shows us the emotional turmoil of Jack at that moment...As MPJ says that he was looking for a reaction from Ennis..his silence denoted to his helplessness and all his regret as so much time went by and they could have had a life together but Ennis dint want that...He is so emotional as there r so many disappointments and that r breaking him down....After his moment of silence he finally has come to the edge of his pain and all anger oozes out and he tells Ennis that he did goto Mexico so dam bluntly that it tears Ennis apart and then u will notice for a second a close up look of Jack…..that look is brilliantly emoted by Jake…he does not know how to react. It is a quite and helpless look….I feel that a part of him feels bad as to Ennis knows and another part of him feels that as Ennis was not with him and that he reacted so in desperation and frustration..  :\'( :\'(

My hearts bleeds watching this scene...It is brilliant portrayal of the character by both of them…I think both of them do their parts so every well that I end up empathizing with both of them…. :\'( :\'(

There is no doubt that Heath is excellent..the way he pushed Jack in anger when he gets to know that he was in Mexico is brilliant…Jake on the other hand emotes as a lover who longs for his love so much that he uses other resources... I think they both had their reasons in for reacting in that way..

The scenes emoted by Jake when he tells Ennis that all that they have is BBM takes my breath away..we can see his misery…Jake shows us that Jack has reached the height of pain that he can take..apart from the way he speaks, the body language shows utter frustration...When Ennis breaks down we see the plight that love has given him..Love has made him what he is today…I don’t think anyone can do that better than Heath…Jake has done complete justice in making us feel so sorry for Jack who kept suffering separation from his love all his life…Even the scene when Ennis walks away and we see a broken heart of Jack reflected in his facial expression...

I absolutely loved both of them in the final confrontation…It is Jake and Heath forever as Ennis and Jack…They gave us Ennis and Jack for which we will always be grateful to them…I am dam overwhelmed writing this..Its piece of my heart... :\'( :\'(

I agree with you. The scene is so overwhelming cause we know: This is their last meeting, they'll never embrace each other again, and that's what make this scene even harder to accept!  :\'( :\'( :\'(

The look at Jack/Jake's face when he looks at Ennis was not as much convincing for me as I would expect from Jake! That's all. Nothing more than that. He succeeded in making his eyes empty and bitter, but made no any visible movement with his eyes (like in earlier times) to explain me what he's thinking, just words.  Anyway -this is only during some short parts, not all the time! So, if he was lower cca 5% from his genius regular acting, maybe I did him an unjustice to even mention it! I don't know! It's just I don't enjoy his acting there as much as the rest of the movie.... well there's another scene I could bring up , but I won't. 
I am making enough trouble as it is! 

[smartestsonia]

Dear Cleo ,

Thanks a million for those lovely words. 

In fact, I do share with others in this forum much more than I had expected. It's amazing how we all have the same feelings about BBM, and how we can talk about it.

I couldn't talk to no one else near me, for no one watched BBM, as they had prejudice to do so! So, I really needed a place to find people who can understand. Even I joined so late, I feel comfortable here.

I assume that this first wave of my sorrow will go down in a time, but it's still unexpectedly high and hurtful! In a time.... 

For now I just have to stand it...  :\'(

[vedrana]

There's another scene (yeah, yeah  it's E&J together, so what?   ) I like a lot. Makes me sad but also moved at the same time... well all their mutual scenes do!

The day they were supposed to leave the Brokeback mountain - wrestling! Ennis was sitting on the rock, out of himself, but not because of August payment he'd never get from Aguirre. He knew it was over. Did nothing, just lost all his power and waited for Jack to finish the job. He just couldn't! And Jack, little cuty, after finish all the chores, wanted to cheer him up and took a rope to pull him on the floor.

Then something interesting happens: Ennis is enjoying wrestling with Jack as so many times before, but suddenly becomes aggressive and angry. Wrestling is not a lovely game anymore, it's a fight against his own feelings. He really really wants to beat up Jack, thinking that in that way he'll manage to beat up his own love. Suddenly he's the one who got beaten and he's awaking from the dream, but that sexy temptation is coming back again, hugs him and tells him so lovely words. Now, that's to much for him, he just has to defend and he punches Jack so hard that he falls down in pain feeling surprised and sad.

The scene's great! It shows an innocent wrestling between them which ends in boyish punching. Nothing special! But the meaning of the scene is deep and it depicts all the troubles of the situation they're, their awareness that the most beautiful part of  their life's brutally interupted, and they would have to split now.

We see Jack so vulnerable, but as always open to any possibility, and Ennis pursuing his former decision to go home and marry Alma! Both of them (Ennis more than Jack) completely unaware of hell they'd be going through without eachother!

As I said - half sweet, half sour! And always make my tears run as crazy!  :\'( :\'( :\'(

[vedrana]

Share you feelings whenever you want with us loreen! I know exactly how you feel about not being able to talk about it with people you live with or are with becasue no one I know has seen the movie and dont want to either... I think my Mother rented the DVD a long time ago but that cant be possible since the movie was banned here... But she I didnt know about BBM back then and she never talked about it so I guess it was some other movie LOL And plus even in school everyone is very... well they disciminate ALOT.

It took me about 10 days to loose the feeling of sadness after watching BBM for the first time...

Please do talk about it here!

Gee, BM, as you see I am quite active here! 

That's on my account of course! (hm... can you say that in English - on my account?)

 , of course!

I have never mentioned this before ..It has been on my mind many times though...I love the 1st look that Ennis and Jack give each other..its a start of something so very beautiful ..After watching the movie so many times we all know what will happen next...so when they 1st look at each other we all know what it will lead to...I mean one of the most beautiful love stories ever..Now, even though there is alot of pain and suffeing ahead at that time when they lay first glancs at each other I rememeberr all the love that will follow and that makes me so happy and blushed

I love the way Jack startes at Ennis showing so much interest and I love the way Ennis looks at Jack and IMO wants to look more but looks the other way..OMG..my heart melts seeing the electricity...

Those moments are so precious. It's just like -oh, yeah boys, just show of and look at each other, you are just about to see what will happen between two of you. 

Yes, it's sweet, the sweetest, because in the time line those are the most distant form a inevitable tragedy.   :\'( :\'( :\'(

Oh Cleo, you hit home here. For lots of reasons that are very difficult to explain that's my favorite scene ever. I'm so in love with SNIT and the DE, but this scene means the whole world to me, makes me smile and cry at the same time...I just can't breathe when I see it. This is what I think about it:

http://ennisjack.com/index.php?topic=1060.420

Also that's the scene where Jack is not only the cutest and sexiest, but also really stunning and unforgettable.

Thankyou so much Tammy 
I loved what u wrote in the above post and the post of the scene u love the most...u r awesome  …You have explained it so very beautifully…The way Ennis looks at Jack with interest but then is shy and looks away but Jack keep staring at him at that time and then Jack looks away too and leans at his car and stares again...am so mesmerized by both their looks

IMO Ennis is aware that Jack is staring at him there and he wants to look again but he does not…And then when Jack is shaving and looking at the mirror again his eyes r all at Ennis and I guess he is thinking “Oh my, Who is this guy” 

I think that their relation had the most beautiful start…the gazes showed us so much about the people they are..Jack wanting to know more about Ennis and inspite of Ennis looking away, Jack did continue showing interest and Ennis on the other had just wanted to see him so much but being reserved by nature he dint see…

Although Jack realized that he wanted to look at him and is trying so hard not to look...That was so dam beautiful…Ennis in his own tender way did make Jack realize that...Even in the first scene they understood each other so dam well…

[tpe]

Sorry - I meant final confrontation -FC! Yess, LC... my abbreviations are a mess! 

Thanks for the clarification!     Well, I will not pursue this further, loreen.  But I will say that -- about the hesitation you refer to -- I interpereted it differently, as part of Jake's way of showing that Jack was impatient and not listening -- we do this often, not listening to the other person and just wanting to say what we want to say when we are choked with rage during an argument.

Anyway, I am not an expert in acting, ...to be honest - don't know the first thing. So, if everyone else is telling me that Jake's pose has a different meaning, I'll accept.

Good explanation though! All of us sometimes act like that! 

  to you too!
