Don't forget he also cruises Ennis a few minutes into the film.

Lotsa dull dull domestic melodrama, and there's hardly any carnality (or eroticism) in it after the spit-lube. The way the next-to-last scene with the daughter panders to the hetero 'mainstream' made me kinda ill. Bet the Best Picture Oscar, and I wonder if Heath will keep up the Novocaine Mouth in his acceptance speech.
Boys with that brand of bizarre, oversized features can crawl in my tent too.

Wow. I know the scene is not in the story, but any scene as well-played as that one (Kate Mara gives the film's least heralded good performance) works just fine.

Compare/contrast slash fiction, written and read almost exclusively by heterosexual women.

I agree, but a rather cold one. It reminded a bit of a Douglas Sirk picture: kitsch redeemed thanks to the director's tonal control.

Apparently Michelle Williams may be 'acting' off the set much like Katie Holmes, IF you know what I mean...

You guys realize if there's any pudding in this film, it'll be the strawman indie film as outlined by Cartman in South Park? -- mike h. (m...), November 10th, 2005.
Can anyone translate, or explain?

xpostUnsubsantiated rumor: MW and HL's coupling (and child) is a front for his gay/bisexuality.
South Park's Cartman once defined 'independent film' as movies about gay cowboys eating pudding.

(I saw a ref to Ang Lee referring to The Last Picture Show as a different kind of male-male romance that inspired him, so our Jeff Bridges-Dennis Quaid fantasy version could be within reach. You get the time machine, I'll work on convincing Proulx to write it when we get to 1979.)
Nude Jack washing Ennis' shirt by the river is one of the most erotic scene in the film (and Most Likely to Freeze Frame).

My Fave Erotic Moment: Jack, quietly licking his lips and barely able to keep his hands off Ennis, during his surprise visit after learning about the divorce -- more evidence that Hot Jake was as much up to the physical acting challenges as Ledger.

They are, to contrast marriage, babies, the hearth, all the domestic shit that in the film's ideology make men less manly, and the homoerotic romance of wide open spaces, mountains, rivers and the world of "real men".
