Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Where is Brokeback Mountain?

Answer: Wyoming

Brokeback Mountain is in Wyoming and is the place which sets the basis of the movie. It is also near the home of Ennis Del Mar. This is the place where Jack and Ennis meet after being employed by Joe Agguire. After they leave here, Jack and Ennis don't see each other for four years.
2. Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar are the ranch hands on Brokeback. Who obviously initiates their romantic relationship?

Answer: Jack

Ennis comes into the tent to keep warm and Jack takes his arm, wrapping it round him, which is unexpected. This starts their twenty-year long affair.
Jack is a very upfront person but Ennis is much more guarded. While Jack quickly accepts their romantic relationship, Ennis appears to constantly be in denial about it. This movie follows the life of both Jack and Ennis, not only on Brokeback Mountain, but afterwards when they are married with families.
3. Who plays Joe Aguirre?

Answer: Randy Quaid

Joe Aguirre is the employer of Ennis and Jack while they are on Brokeback Mountain. Randy Quaid has also been in films such as "Not Another Teen Movie" and appeared in nineteen episodes of "Saturday Night Live." Joe Aguirre is a very aggressively mannered man who confronts Jack about his and Ennis's relationship. Joe is a large man who appears to get everyone to do his work for him, while he's rarely satisfied with the job they do.
4. Who is the first to find out about Jack and Ennis?

Answer: Joe Agguire

Joe Aguirre is spying through binoculars and sees them play-fighting, shirtless. He later confronts Jack about this when Jack goes back to Brokeback Mountain the next year looking for work. Joe is seen only quite briefly in this film. He employs Jack and Ennis, getting them to do all the work for him, and he is not afraid to cut across rules and regulations to make a profit.

This is shown when he orders Jack to sleep out with the sheep the whole summer he is up on Brokeback.
5. After not seeing each other for four years Jack sends Ennis a postcard. He asks to meet up. What does Ennis reply?

Answer: "You bet."

He sends a postcard back saying "You bet". He attempts to hide the real meaning of the note from his wife Alma, telling her that they "used to be fishing buddies". Jack arrives a few days later and their affair begins again, which they try to hide from their wives. This doesn't work as Alma sees them kissing passionately. She keeps this to herself for many years.
6. Where does Jack live?

Answer: Texas

He lives in Texas with his wife Lureen and his child Bobby. Lureen thinks it's unfair that Jack always has to travel so far to go "fishing" with Ennis. Ennis concludes that Jack traveling up is a fair agreement because his truck wouldn't make it as far as Texas.
7. What was Jack's job when he met Lureen?

Answer: Rodeo cowboy

He was a rodeo cowboy, which he later tells Ennis, saying "Made $2000 that summer bull ridin', nearly starved." Lureen also competed and this is how Jack met her.
8. Both Jack and Ennis are only children.

Answer: False

Ennis has a brother and a sister who raised him after his parents died in a car accident. Jack rarely speaks of his family and when he does, he only refers to his father, so we assume he is an only child. We only know for certain that Ennis is not an only child.
9. What month do Alma and Ennis get divorced?

Answer: November

We hear this in the courthouse: "Del Mar divorce granted, this day 6th November 1975." Jack sees this as a sign of commitment to him, but, sadly, he is incorrect. Ennis and Alma have become distant, and even though Ennis is unaware that Alma knows about Ennis and Jack's romantic relationship, we assume this contributes to her want for a divorce. Alma remarries to her boss at work, Monroe, and Ennis eventually has a brief relationship with a barmaid, Cassie Cartwright.
10. What way is suggested that Jack dies, despite what his wife says?

Answer: He is beaten with a tire iron.

We see a brief image of Jack getting beaten, leaving us thinking he is killed for being homosexual. This relates to the story Ennis told him before. This happens near the end of the movie. His wife, Lureen tells Ennis that he drowned in his own blood when pumping up a flat tire.
