10 Average Questions about Brokeback Mountain

Answer: Alma

Ennis was married to Alma and they had two children - Alma Jr and Jenny. In the short story Jenny was called Francine. They later got divorced and he dated a woman named Cassie for a while. Jack's wife was Lureen.

Answer: None

Jack was the one who played a harmonica during that first summer. Ennis jokingly complained about it. Here is a bit of interesting trivia - the song Jack played (rather badly) was "He Was a Friend of Mine", by Willie Nelson. This was the same song which played during the end credits.

Answer: Laundrette

To start with, the couple lived out of town on a small ranch but Alma pursuaded Ennis to move into town so that the children would have others to play with. Ennis obviously didn't like living in the town very much.

Answer: Chilean

Jack and Ennis had to look after 1000 sheep for Joe Aguirre. They got mixed up with some Chilean sheep and the boys spent all day separating them.

Answer: Wyoming

The subtitle at the beginning of the film said "Signal, Wyoming, 1963". This was the place where Ennis and Jack met. After the first summer, they never went back to Brokeback Mountain but met up in places nearby.

Answer: Randall and Lashawn

Randall and Jack became close friends and it was implied that they met up a little too often. Lashawn was very extroverted and talked constantly!

Answer: They worked together.

We first saw Monroe when Ennis took the kids in to the supermarket where Alma worked, to leave them with her while he went to work. Alma Jr knocked over some jars and Monroe helped Alma clear up. After she divorced Ennis, Alma married Monroe.

Answer: Rodeo cowboy

They met at a rodeo which Jack won, for once. Later, Jack became an employee of Lureen's Father, L.D. and became rich selling farm machinery.

Answer: Bobby

Bobby was Lureen and Jack's only child. He only appeared in three scenes of the film: as a newborn, driving a tractor with Jack and in the Thanksgiving scene. L.D. was the name of Jack's father-in-law.

Answer: Blue

Jack asked Lureen if she had seen the coat, but she hadn't. He must find it though, because in a later scene he was wearing it. This was the last time Jack and Ennis saw each other.
