Nice to know you Ennis del Mar!

I really loved that quote. Jack really wanted to know Ennis and make friends with him.
The most difficult scene was the paragraph where, on the mountain, Ennis holds Jack and rocks back and forth, humming, the moment mixed with childhood loss and his refusal to admit he was holding a man.

- Annie Proulx -



From the vibration of the floorboard on which they both stood, Ennis could feel how hard Jack was shaking.

Jack Twist: "It could be like this--just like this--always."

Jack Twist: "You have no idea how bad it gets."

Jack Twist: "I wish I knew how to quit you"

Ennis Del Mar: "If you can't fix it, you gotta stand it."(
[/color]
the first quote brought tears to my eyes and still does as jack was offering Ennis his unconditional love for which Ennis was unwillingly to accept.
  the second quote tore at my heart because Jack was so wanting everyday intamacy with the man he loved, and was never to have it.
the third ,    I felt pure saddness as Jack was hopelessly in love with Ennis and would never  get over it.

    The last quote. still makes me want to pick Ennis up and shake some sense into him.

I've been 'thinking' a lot about the 'I wish I knew how to quit you quote' lately...... <^(

I dunno, but this line has to be like, one of the strongest lines ( next to 'Jack, I swear' of course ;) ) in the whole movie/story. It expresses so much using so few words.....

it just came to mind during a period when I was thinking about...a guy ( ah, what can I say, I'm a hopeless romantic ) who I was in love with...and despite the fact that he doesn't love me back and sees me only as a friend, I do love him purely and sincerely ( and want him to be happy ) and have the feeling that I'll never be able to 'quit him'. no matter how many times he tries to push me away or doesn't want to open up to me...I think he'll always be that person I will never WANT to quit.

so I believe that Jack didn't wish to know how to quit ennis....he didn't WANT to know how....because loving him felt so good, despite all the bad. Loving ennis was the only bright spot in his life, and despite all the heartache that love provided him, he never wanted to quit him....and even after 'trying' and....being with randall (  :\'( ) he never really quited ennis....never. because ennis was like a drug- he kept him 'high' and brough him low....but the 'highs' were the most memorable and treasured moments of his life.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you,
for an interval,
somewhere very near,
just around the corner.
All is well.

"Nobody's business but ours"      :c)

Their whole Love Story is built on this phrase.

From this is born a Love stronger than distance, society, the fleeting years.... :-\\

To me, it is The Sheer Love. The Love which gives freedom instead to encase,  it is the best gift that someone can offer to whom he loves....

A little bit like your story Koka, a Love without condition....... ^f^

Made me cried too. Something else that made me cry in that scene, is all the unspoken from the clothes.  Heath's threadbared hat and coat vs Jack's top of the notch clothing.  Poor vs wealthy, the guys were living in two different worlds.  They were both poor at the beginning, Jack went out of poverty by marriage.  Heat's remained in poverty all is life doing is best to raise his daughters and pay the pensions after the divorce. Wich was a part of their argument.  So sad... What a brilliant, silent and poetic movie! O.k. got watery eyes again.  PBS!  :'(

Wow...great observation!   :)

That helps explains why Ennis said "I never had no thoughts a doin it with another guy except I sure wrang it out a hundred times thinkin about you...." ;)

I like to think that he really wanted to be nice to his kids..but at the same time, his face seems to be showing a different meaning. In Europe we say "do you want my picture" when someone stares at you. The girls had over heard their parents argument, and when Ennis turns back to go back to the house, the girls are staring at him..he then asks if the girls want a push" but looked angry, then if I remember correctly he shoots some ash bucket, no? He is still angry.

I saw Ennis' comment as a "WARNING girls don't annoy your dad today"

Sorry if my English isn't tip top..I'm so tired I can barely keep my eyes open as I type this! :-\

I totally agree.

ennis:You ever get the feelin'... I don't know, er... when you're in town and someone looks at you all suspicious, like he knows? And then you go out on the pavement and everyone looks like they know too?
Jack Twist: [Casually] Well... maybe you oughta get out of there, you know? Find yourself someplace different. Maybe Texas.
Ennis Del Mar: [Sarcastically] Texas? Sure, maybe you can convince Alma to let you and Lureen to adopt the girls. And we can just live together herding sheep. And it'll rain money from LD Newsome and whiskey'll flow in the streams - Jack, that's real smart.
Jack Twist: Go to h***, Ennis. If you wanna live your miserable f**kin' life, then go right ahead.
Ennis Del Mar: Fine.
Jack Twist: I was just thinkin' out loud.
Ennis Del Mar: Yep, you're a real thinker there. Goddamn. Jack f**kin' Twist; got it all figured out, ain't ya

i loved this fight between them lol and i loved this well it really isnt a sentence but i loved the hole thing

Love all these recent posts...but my new favorite line is Jack's "Mmmmm...." after Ennis says he ain't yet had the opportunity."  Just delicious, the way he says that, and his smile.  Not a thoughtful kind of "hmmm," but like, "oh boy, yummy, one opportunity coming right up, Ennis."

It's from the short story  :)
“What Jack remembered and craved in a way he could neither help nor understand was the time that distant summer on Brokeback when Ennis had come up behind him and pulled him close, the silent embrace satisfying some shared and sexless hunger."

From the short story.
There was some open space between what he knew and what he tried to believe, but nothing could be done about it, and if you can't fix it you've got to stand it.

Ennis, riding against the wind back to the sheep in the treacherous, drunken darken light, thought he'd never had such a good time, felt he could paw the white out of the moon.

aww man...i just started reading this thread today. and from page one. i cant believe it was a year ago already. simply amazing how people felt a year ago. probably even more amazing is how everyone feels the same a year later. of all the quotes everyones mentioned, we can proably write down the screenplay ourselves. lol. but i love all the quotes. i think my fave is the "it could always be like this" line. to me its like asking ennis to be with him. asking ennis for more moments. for more time. i guess ulimately, all of ennis.

Hello Holden Worther.  I do believe there is a separate thread where people shared their favorite quotes.  You can check the subject index thread in this part of the forum. 

I mentioned in that thread that my favorite quote is from the short story, although you think you see the visual equivalent in the movie: Let be, let be.

Ennis- "I can't stand it anymore!" 
I don't get what happened right after that scene.  Why didn't Ennis stay with Jack?  He just said it and left so to me it doesn't make sense.  I wish they showed a little more of that part to clear things up.

Ennis desperately wanted to be with Jack. The hardest part was admitting that not just to Jack, but to himself. In the end, all the secrecy, the pain and the frustration of their situation became too much for him to bare.

In the short story, you get a little more of an explanation of what took place leading up to Jack's flashback of the dozy embrace.

...they torqued things almost to where they had been, for what they'd said was no news. Nothing ended, nothing begun, nothing resolved.

i agree....ennis actually looked like he was ready to give in by then. the flashback of them together on brokeback after ennis said that was encouraging tooseeing that they're actually hugging and ennis was whispering in jack's ear but i can't help but feel that there's something missing when ennis just drove away. he's driving away from the love of his life again and again and again. when is he ever going to have the courage to be a man and take a stand for jack? i wished the movie had ended when jack held ennis when he cried and tell him that 'its okay'. then i would have been able to make up my own ending. it happens alot in movies these days. when i couldn't watch the ending or that its left hanging, i would make them out myself and most of the time, it would be to my liking...i should be a scriptwriter someday

FROM THE SS, right after the confrontation from their last meeting:
"They torqued things almost to where they had been, for what they'd said was no news. Nothing ended, nothing begun, nothing resolved."

So you see ,it wasn't the first time they talked about it,apparantly...

 :\'(  :\'(  :\'(


Honestly
These words bring a tear to my eye, green  :\'(

Picturing Ennis falling to the ground, grabbing onto Jack's coat because the power of the love he was fighting for and against rendered him so ultimately vulnerable and human.
Unfortunately his falling in love could only be articulated with a trademark last minute Ennis breakdown.
Or as I guess I can call it, breakthrough; I remember his feelings throwing themselves out of Ennis with that dryheave silhoutte against the winded blue sky.
That departure always the last minute devil.
