Brokeback Mountain (8/10) Movie CLIP - Jack's Death (2005) HD

(Lureen) Hello. HelIo, this is Ennis Del Mar.
Who? Who is this?
Ennis Del Mar. l'm an old buddy of Jack's.
(Lureen) Jack used to mention you.
You're the fishing buddy or the hunting buddy, l know that.
Would have let you know what happened...
but l wasn't sure about your name or address.
Jack kept his friends' addresses in his head.
That's why l'm callin', to see what happened.
Oh, yeah.
Jack was pumpin' up a flat on the truck...
out on a back road, when the tire blew up.
The rim of the tire slammed into his face...
broke his nose and jaw and knocked him unconscious on his back.
By the time somebody come along, he'd drowned in his own blood.
He was only 39 years old.
HelIo? HelIo?
HelIo.
Was he buried down there?
We put a stone up.
He was cremated, like he wanted.
Half his ashes was interred here, the rest was sent up with his folks.
He use to say he wanted his ashes scattered on Brokeback Mountain...
but I wasn't sure where that was.
I thought Brokeback Mountain might be around where he grew up.
Knowing Jack...
it might be some pretend place...
where bluebirds sing and there's a whiskey spring.
No, ma'am...
we was herdin' sheep on Brokeback one summer...
back in '63.
Well, he said it was his favorite place.
l thought he meant to get drunk. He drank a lot.
ls his folks still up in Lightning Flat?
They'II be there tilI the day they die.
Thank you for your time.
I sure am sorry.
We was good friends.
