Jake is a nice, tall man, but look how much bigger Heath is, or at least in this picture (maybe it's the angle) -- starting with taller at the shoulder and broader, too. Thicker neck, fuller face. Makes Jake look darn near petite!

I was thinking the same thing. Quite different than how they looked in BBM. Jack always looked to be the larger of the two. Heath must have lost a lot of weight for the role of Ennis.
carbyville , so you did get the same impression in BBM -- that they looked roughly the same size. Your comment that Heath intentionally lost some weight for the role of Ennis seems probable...
Carbyville -- funny that you perceived Jack as the larger of the two men in BBM. I didn't see that. I believe, though it may not be a true memory, that first I saw them as exactly equal, then with other viewings, I saw Ennis as the taller. I thought he was taller in the dozy embrace, and during the reunion hug and kissing. I think. And then later I learned Heath is 6'2" and Jake is 6', and then started noticing that in their publicity pix, etc.
But that's just height. As to size, or weight, now that you say it, c'ville, maybe Heath did lose weight for BBM. He was quite slight. Both of them were (except for Jack's fabulous thighs of steel). And after BBM, I've perceived Heath as more full bodied than when playing Ennis.
