It must have been your comments, mechtild, that made me really examine this kiss carefully. When Jack draws Ennis down to him, with such infinite tenderness, to kiss him and hold him close - well, in my second viewing, this was the moment when I began to believe.
What did you begin to believe? Did you mean the reality of an actual love blooming between them? -- because you hadn't noticed, during your first viewing, the way their real friendship and mutual pleasure in each other's company had been developing? Or did you mean something else?
