how did jack twist die

Has she just told this painful story so many times that she's grown numb to it, or is it actually fiction, designed to cover up the embarrassing circumstances of Jack's death — connected to his. Lureen knew that Jack was gay. She says to the other woman at dinner that her husband never wanted to "dance" either meaning that he was not interested in her sexually. Lureen knew Jack was seeing a man named Ennis regularly. She also knew he would go out to meet other men for sex.

When Jack blamed Ennis for the fact that they weren’t happily living together, the two got caught in a blame game that broke out into a fight. Ennis later told Jack about the time his father took him to see a man murdered in public for being gay. Ennis and Jack would occasionally meet one another while they were outdoors fishing together. However, at one point the two conclude that they simply wouldn’t be able to be together.

The decision was made because of Ennis’ dad, who Ennis recalls hurting a homosexual for witnessing them in the act.

After several years of clandestine meetings and secret love affairs on the titular mountain, their relationship comes to a heartbreaking conclusion. Jack visits Ennis, now married with children, and proposes that they live together on a ranch, away from society’s judgment. Welcome, Guest. Please login or register.

I suppose they'd appreciate it if his wishes was carried out. About the ashes, I mean.

Would she know that Jack wanted to bring Randall to his parents' ranch, as said Jack's father? So this time, Jack's idea would really have beacome reality And Lureen eventually understand clearly what was going with Jack. So she knew that he was about to let her. Another point is that she's very cold, but when she learns that brokeback mountain really exists and that it was the place Jack met Ennis, her eyes become wet.

Obsiously, she knew there wasn't love anymore between her and Jack, but then she realizes that Jack's heart never belonged to her, even at the beginning It's so sad to see her so bitter, when you know how fuul of life and cheerful she was when she met Jack. I really think she still loved him in a way Lureen started making those little sounds after Ennis responded "Ma'am, we hearded sheep on Brokeback in summer of 63" to her comment that BBM the place were Jack wanted his ashes to be scattered was probably some pretend place "where bluebirds sing and there's a whiskey spring".

My interpretation is that at that point, Lureen realized that Ennis and Jack were lifelong lovers, and that was when she started making these sounds that expressed discomfort and pent up hurt.

I feel she know.. She knew.. Oh yes she knew, she realized it talking to Ennis. Quote from AP short story: No doubt about it, she was polite but the little voice was cold as snow.

I just love Annie Proulx's style Exaclty Annie put those words really clear but in the movie it was so damn sad and real.
