Someone posted and verified on another board that Ennis actually says "I love you" while exhaling after he smells the shirts in Jack's bedroom!  Did anyone hear it?  I'll have to go check it out tonight when I get home  ;D  WOW  (might have to turn on the subtitles just to be sure)

(This is an excerpt from the post:
Watched the movie again today and watched this part very closely (usually by this time Im crying so hard I dont hear anything). And oh my god your right Mmyers1615 after he takes the shirts from the cubby hole he holds them up to his nose and takes a big breath in and on the exhale he says "I love you" not only do you see his lips move you hear him say it but you have to listen closely because thats when the music starts up.
Just when I think I cant possibly cry anymore here I go again. )

I am unaware of this.


Indeed, this would be interesting to verify.  If he said it, it was probably so "under the voice", which makes it so wonderfully appropriate and moving.

Yes, I want to know that too...  :o  I hope it's real and that he does say 'I love you'!

OMG, guys he does say 'I love you' when he's holding the shirst on his hands and breathing very heavely...  like a whisper that you barely could hear Ennis says 'I love you'!  You will be able to hear that if you add all the volume to your tv or headphones, also repeat the scene because he said it in a faster way and very difficult to hear!   :o :o :o

It won't appear in the subtitles because it's more like a whisper...  also, ennis does move his lips... zoom in and you'll see for yourselfs!  Wow, this new to me and I just found out for myself!   ;) :D :o

No he doesn't, I just watched and listened very carefully.  My heart wanted to hear I Love You but he never said it.

Sorry!  :-\

I must hear this for myself.  It is wonderful.  Thanks Riobbm23.

You all know what this means...  It would mean that the word 'love' is said precisely 3 times in the entire movie.  If true, THIS is the one instance that matters most....

Me too Cham, It looks like his lips are brushing over the shirt and he sort of sighs but no matter how I try ( and God I want to hear the words) I can't hear him say anything.

OH MY GAWD!! HE DOES!!!!!! Ennis does say "I LOVE YOU"  I can't believe it!!  I heard it 3 out of the 4 times I listened to it!!!!  The first time I thought I just heard breath coming out, but no!! "I LOVE YOU!!!  I can't stop crying!   

Ennis is holding the shirts.  When he picks up the sleeve he then takes in a deep breath. As he is exhailing he says, I LOVE YOU!!!!

I'm going to watch it tonight. I'll try to listen for that. I'm half a wreck  just waiting to see it again and that's going to completely wreck me.

Let go for a debate:

I watched again... sorry no I Love You, my DVD player is pluged to my stereo, I had the volume at the max... no I Love You.

The same is confirmed by Pierrealex and Mars, they went to watch at the same time I went, same verdict.

This is just something Heath Ledger would do to.  Add to the script and say it just loud enough to hear very faintly and not loud enough to make the movie mushy.

HE DOES CHAMEAU!!!  HE DOES!!!!  Blast your neighbors out in the next province, wear headphones, anything.  But HE DOES SAY "I love you".  I am not a Christian but I swear to you on everything you believe in, he says "I love you."

Well you're quite welcome Patriot1.  I will try and settle this debate when I get home tonight  ;D  Will have to use headphones just to be sure!  I know I'll be wrecked if it is actually there.  It would give me some closure/satisfaction that Ennis did finally realize he really loved Jack to be able to mutter those words even if it was for just a quick fleeting whisper.   :'(

Oh God, now I'm going to have to put in my DVD and watch it a third time just to look for this! I watched the second time with CC on the entire time, and I don't recall seeing any "I Love You's." As someone mentioned above, though, since it was just a faint whisper, it might not have even been captioned. Who knows.

I'll definitely have to watch for it, though. Through the whole movie, I kept waiting for them to profess their love to one another. They kept referring to their love as 'this thing' that grabs ahold of them, but they never once said to one another they they loved each other, and I wanted to hear it SO bad! So, I'll have to check it out.

Never watch closed captioning or subtitles.  They are not accurate.  Watch his lips and listen, full blast and amplified more if possible.  HE SAYS, "I LOVE YOU!!!!!"    :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

OK Y'all!

It's official!  I listened to it with headphones turned up, and HE DOES WHISPER "I LOVE YOU" while exhaling - it is very brief and quick and his mouth is partially hidden by the shirt so you can only see his mouth move if you look closely.  WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

Either I'm hearing and imagining things (or have had too much port) or...

                                                                                                       Ennis says what I have long to hear him say.

It's quick, muffled, and whispered.  But he does say it.  Amazing!
