I didnt vote, because i find it too hard to pick between Ennis and Jack. I think they're both such beautiful characters.

They definitely are. But Jack speaks so much to me. He has the innocence and is not trying to hide it because of society. That is eloquent to me

Yeah, I love Jack for that. I think that even though Ennis came off all tough, I beleive Jack was really the braver one for not being so afraid to show his feelings and not trying to hide how he felt about Ennis.

Yes. But I think there is more to Ennis that goes unspoken. I feel he is truly in turmoil and struggles with the fact that he does have feelings for a man.

I don't know which one to choose!
If I could, I'd choose all the caracters, because each one give a lot to the film!
So, well ok, my favorite character is Jack, because he's romantic, and ...er ok ok, because it's Jake G. who plays the part!
But a love story is between two persons, so Ennis merit to win!

I'd have to go for Jack, although it was very close. Ennis was in the scenes that most moved me the most, but Jack was the character that touched me.. if that makes sense. It was so heart-breaking, seeing him go from a free spirted romantic, to a bitter, joyless old man (well he's not old, but older ) He touched me becuase he never gave up, even though he knew he could never get the life he wanted with Ennis

I completely lose it when he says he cannot get by with a few high altitude fucks, that he needs more, the love and consistency, and in Mexico we see him go down the alley for a whore I love Jack so much ...but Ennis is so very different, both so very opposite and powerful. Jack touched me. His struggles. His needs, his desires, his tragedy

Jack is my favorite character. I like the fact that he is more out spoken about things. Plus he's not afraid to show his love for Ennis, he shows his emotions more. I like that.

Definitely. I like that he knows the fears and yet despite them speaks his love. Love is something so pure in life, whatever form you find it in, it should not be hidden, though tragically often it must be. Thanks for your thoughts Jack Nasty

I had to vote for Ennis, just because most people seem to be going for Jack And Heath Ledger was the reason I went to see the film...so it seems only fair I should give him credit for that
