Left bank




Apparently, there's a reason some of you may prefer Jake Gyllenhaal's left profile. According to researchers:

A new study by professors Kelsey Blackburn and James Schirillo from Wake Forest University in North Carolina shows that images of the left side of the face are perceived and rated as more pleasant than pictures of the right side. It is apparently because the left side presents more intense emotions than the right and is more active during emotional expression.



Herewith, Jake's left or leftish profile through the years.





















Seems likeMario Testino is a left-sider.











“So if you’re smiling you’re going to get a bigger smile on the left side of your face than on the right side,” explained Schirillo.






As a diehard lefty, I approve.

Repeating from the end of the last post:

There's some speculation that Jake and Beyonce were dining because of her/Clint Eastwood's remake of A Star Is Born. I can't quite see that, but who knows.

Someone took a bad photo of Jake at ABC Kitchen today. LOL at the flash going off.

Also, someone else just tweeted that Jake is at the nearly empty movie theater s/he is at. No mention of the film yet.

UltraViolet said...

Jake needs to do more photo shoots. Sexy ones.

Thanks UV gorgeous pics.

Chica said...

I heard about this report UV and they are coorrect,. expecially when it comes to Jake!

The pics are stunning!

LOL@ that fan pic, it looks a lot like pics I take with my phone when i'm in a rush.

I've been to that theater too UV, saw Zodiac and Rendition there.

The male lead in A Star is Born is suppose to be older than the female lead so I can't see Jake in this unless Eastwood is tweeking the script.

I should have printed out the free pass to see EOW when I found out UV because when I went to their FB page, they said that there were no more tickets available:(

I need to investigate to see if they are giving out free passes elsewhere.

Rachel said...

Chica - This place looks like they're giving passes away as well.

Rachel said...

I guess the super advanced screenings are already happening.

Just watched the advance NYC screening of the #EndofWatch Movie. Amazing police drama with Jake Gyllenhaal.

Jake Gyllenhaal is at the bar at @GastroArte on the UWS. Sporting a rather large beard.

Chica said...

Thanks Rachel!I signed up and hopefully I will get tickets.

That is so cool that Jake was there at the Lincoln theater to introduce EOW!!

UltraViolet said...

Damn, I was hoping he'd do that at next week's screening!

Thanks for the info, everyone.

And KIKY, thanks for the nice words. And you're welcome :)

Hope we get some more tweets about the film.

May be he will UV. He will probably do more than one screening.

UltraViolet said...

I hope so, Mary. Here are the tweets of the first person who posted about seeing Jake there. (I hope some more people showed up!)

Ummm we are only ppl sitting in this movie theater right now. Bad sign??

Oh hello jake gyllenhaal in the theater with me!

I'm not really sure what he said though. I was just staring at him lol

Viv said...

EOW screenings are very lowkey.
Hope more people can go to see the screenings and we can get more informatiom. :)

Confused said...

Sorry, I don't get it! Why all the sites and movie's blogs say "Super ADVANCED Screening - NYC - End of Watch: May 2 nd 2012 instead April 26 th 2012?

UltraViolet said...

There is another screening next week, anon.

I hope we hear more, too, Viv. Saw this on FB:

bobbyanna said...

Wow, I 'm glad to know Jake was at the EoW screening. I agree with mary, UV, he'll probably do more than one! I wish I was there. : (

A Star is Born, or
Sex & the City 3 ??? Or maybe he just had dinner with friends...
I'm hoping it's just dinner with friends...: )

Sort of OT: The playwright who did "Proof" just opened a new play on Broadway with Matthew Broderick.

It was a PFR at Seinfeld's. What do all those folks have in common besides entertainment? The election is near.

bobyanna said...

Forgot to say how much I love the photos. Especially the first two...


Another lefty here. : )_

Anonymous said...

What's a PFR?

Yes we will again said...

Anon I hope all of them are for President Obama

Go President Obama! Im with YOU!

Obama 2012 said...

Hey anon Looks like Jake's buddy Adam Levine wanted to be at that politica-party too:)

I always loved that 2nd photo of Jake posted, it's one of my favorites.

Thanks forposting these incredile and sexy photos of Jake UV!

Good luck with the tickets Chica, I hope that there are screenings being planned in my neck of the woods.

Think that's great that Jake and David are attending these screenings, hopefully they asre getting some positive feedback.

bobbyanna said...

I love Adam Levine...and I agree with him! LOL!

Anonymous said...

His left OR right side look wonderful so long as I can see that gorgeous face (sans beard)

I wonder if they are giving out opinion cards at these advanced screenings to gage audience reactions. I hear that is what they do at these things, they want feedback

Sag Actor said...

I would love to see a screening of EOW, I hope they are having screenings where I live.

They seem to be low key, with Jake and David attending so far w/o any studio suits.

Hope to get some positive buzz going for this film.

Someone says that this creature is the same as that in IHJ, with jacket, green pants, hat and beard?
My hope is that for this new film, he comes back to have that face, that gorgeous face!!

Tweety said...

Lucky girl if she did go out with him:

Wow These people are lucky to have jake talking about End of Watch in a screening. I hope the film was well received.

Paula C. said...

UV, thank so much for brighten my day with this post!

Seems like everyone that went to the early screening of EOW really liked the movie, I just wish someone filmed what Jake said in the theater and put it online, it's not much to ask, is it?

Monica,you are back! I missed you.

Daniela said...

Monica?! Are yourself? You came back?
I also felt really miss you!!

Anonymous said...

I also wish someone had taped what Jake said, maybe someone did and it will show up online? (keeping fingers crossed)

Hey Monica WB

bobbyanna said...

I sure hope some Gb'ers will have good luck getting tickets for the EoW previews.

That Wythe Hotel in BK, Jake was spotted at yesterday is... interesting. : )

They're having promotional VIP type parties and art exhibits before the grand opening on
May 1st.

(waves to monica!) : )

Snow is predicted today! Last night was really really cold.

Glad everyone is enjoying the lefty pics. There really are some gorgeous shots in there.

I wish there had been more public reaction to the EoW screening. Maybe the LA and NY ones next week will get more chatter.

Not sure if this is about Jake but it could be, lol:

First time at @soulcycle today. Worked my @$$ off and a hot celeb sweated on me as he walked out of class. #winning

Hi to Monica and everyone else out there :)

Ed Zwick talks a little about how close he got to Jake while doing L&OD, among other topics.

Twitter said...

So Kanye has been at my job twice in one week & I never get the chance to see him. Yet today Jake Gyllenhaal & James Franco are here, great

I thought it was interesting that Zwick said he, Jake and Anne all took less money than their usual on L&OD. I wonder if they ever made any or will make any on the back end.

From twitter:

Hey Jake Gyllenhaal, why are you sitting at the smile alone? We have room at our table!

Soo nobody is going to say nothing about the strange couple Jake / Franco?

some interesting projec? a movie together?

I am dying for some news here....#swoon#

PS, Jake alone in a restaurant called Smile is pretty "weird"lol!
I love the guy but he need to find some company ASAP! Hey I am totally available;)

PPS I can't wait for EOW!
hi to everybody and thanks UV, this is always a beautiful and pleasant place
KY.

Monica said...

The person who posted the sighting didn't say they were talking. Neither said they were there at the same time. And if they were, doesn't mean that this is a project.

Politico said...

PFR = Private Fund Raiser.

I consider it karma how Lindsey Lohab and Kim K garnered more headlines than every hollywood actress who won an oscar that attended the Whitehouse Correspondence Dinner this past weekend.

UltraViolet said...

Thanks for the nice words, KY.

I think people would have speculated more if there had been more details about Jake and JF. We don't know if it even happened or if they were there at the same time, as Monica said.

Monica said...

Apparently they were there at the same time. Sorry for the mistake.

Anonymous said...

Hi, Monica, first of all,I'm so happy to see you here again:)
I know we can't know anything for sure, but a girl can dream:)
And sincerely between Byonce and Franco I choose Franco ;)
BTW I have checked and the tweet girl works in a restaurant in Soho,so who knows everything it is possible :))
UV,I am an optimist!:)

Monica said...

James Franco is so much better. And he is always working.

Hey Politico,as my grandfather used to say, "everything is political" But I didn't believe this sentence could refer to Kim K ,also! LOL;)
