Catching up, throwing back

New photos of Jake in NYC on Thursday. Look at those bruised knuckles!




#TBT long ago and just recently. Some lingering Madrid interviews first. This one has anteresting anecdote about the mirror scene from Enemy:



Jake on MSN ES:



Another video interview here, with some slightly different answers :)

Going a little further back, from Toronto in January:

Not sure if this got lost in the comments. Someone posted it, and it's a cute clip. Although you kind of want to just tell Jake to answer the question!

And some social media Jake TNTs:








And we can't leave this one out - all the way back to the '90s!

Hi Blue Jean,
I was able to see Enemy via a download because it never opened where I live.
I came away with the characters were one in the same and Anthony/Adam was schizo. Would explain Isabella as Mom.

If I had still had my ovaries they would melt.
Brooklyn in the house, those eyes are just too adorable and so are Jake's.

FP said...

OMG Anon whata comment LOL! :)

I saw this on twitter and I was impressed, even if the portrait is not quite perfect, to me who did it, caught perfectly the soul of Detective Loki

BJ, we should put more spoiler space before and after comments. Though nothing you said was really all that spoilerish, so it's okay :)

Something like:

*********Spoiler space*********

This is not a spoiler: Jake is handsome.

*********End spoiler*********

It could get irritating to scroll through that, but let's give it a try.

Warning, real spoilers if you don't want to see Jake boxing until Southpaw comes out: This instagrammer posted a couple of short videos of Jake truing today in Las Vegas.

Lily, Everest might still be shooting. Many of us are hoping that's the reason Jake hasn't gotten rid of the beard yet :)

wow so hot!!

I think Anthony has a trauma from the accident he suffered with Mary. From there came the Adam .

I think Anthony used to be an actor, he had a relationship with Mary, used to go to sex clubs, but he needed to give up this way of life after Helen became pregnant .
Then he married and found herself caught in this web that is marriage, the responsibility of parenthood. But he met again with Mary and that's when she saw the mark on his finger. They fight and the accident occurs. The web in the car is that Anthony is caught again in the wedding .
That accident left a scar. In the scene with Anthony, Adam doesn't like to see the scar. He says he shouldn't have gone there .
We know that Mary also survived the crash, since his wife asks him if he is still seeing her.
In the end he begins to remember everything what happened, the accident with Mary, note that he returns home in a taxi (he no longer has the car that was destroyed in the accident), dream about it, he cries, reconciles with his wife, and when all seems well, he sees the key, so he decides to go to the club again (the cycle repeats, as he says in one of the classes).

Anthony was really a teacher or it's all in his mind? He seems to be wearing the same clothes as a teacher; the wife is surprised to see him at the university, and open mouth when he says he needs back to the class. I don't think she knows that there is other, but that Anthony has an issue. Especially when she tells Anthony that she thinks he knows what is happening.

Mary also seems to be wearing the same clothes in every scene with Adam, except the scene with Anthony.

Jake hasn't gotten rid of the beard yet :)

And a haircut.
Nothing against long hair, I loved from the time of Prince of Persia, but this no.

UltraViolet said...

No reaction to the boxing video? :)

Vegas:

Celebrity Gym Experience..after having breakfast at the pool next to Jake Gyllenhal (he was drinking water with lemon and having a green smoothie), we of course then crossed paths at the gym! He was working out hard with two boxing trainers for his upcoming movie! Impressive! Go Jake! I'm could take or leave the long hair and beard though!

NYC:

And then I was here and he was there. #boom #iwork #publicrelations #events #nyc #jakegyllenhaal #workflow #

Another photo here.

I think that's Michelle Williams's boyfriend. The benefit was hosted by Maggie and Peter, among others.

UltraViolet said...

Just saw your reaction, Monica :)

Ooh, will read and digest your post. Intriguing! I love that the movie has so many interpretations.

First, I have to go to sleep!

Monica said...

HOT!!Great!!

back to new york? wow!! I wonder if he goes to the met gala tomorrow. Maggie will be there.

Tweety said...

Double wow! That video is hot !
Don't mind the spoilers even though I haven't seen Enemy. I read so much about the movie here, reviews, FB, twitter , etc. Thanks !!

bobbyanna said...

Monica your analysis is very intriguing!

Spoiler******

I also believed Anthony and Adam were the same person, but you've given a credible analysis of the narrative and where the women fit in. Your explanation is definitely worth examining further. I really have to go back and watch the movie again. What about the spider? Does anyone have any ideas about it? It certainly seems to be an important conceit.

BlueJean said...

Sag Actor: hi! I also saw it via a download. I'm in The Netherlands and 'Enemy' will premiere here at the end of this month. I plan to go see it at the cinema as well! :)

Monica: many thanks for that. I must go and think about it. Just as I thought I had it all figured out... ;)

BlueJean said...

*****Spoilers*****





Bobbyanna:
I think the spiders represent the women in Adam's life. Don't ask me why, though... just a guess!





*****End of spoilers*****

bobbyanna said...

Spoilers *********
* I've been thinking.Enemy is described as an "erotic thriller." So maybe the spider represents the eroticism. The sexual, carnal urges that seem to create dramatic tension between Anthony/Adam's dial persona.

Hagen said...

Blu-ray.com: In the USA "Enemy" will be released on Blu-ray on June 24th (just like the DVD). The yellow poster will be used for the cover.

Keira Knightley has played Rob Hall's wife Jan Arnold in "Everest". It's a small role, but nevertheless important for an emotional highlight of the movie.

Six weeks to go until the filming of "Southpaw" will start in Pittsburgh.

Mary said...

Loved the boxing videos always good to see Jake in action thanks UV.Be glad to see the end of the beard and the long hair:}
Unable to participate in Enemy discussions as I haven't been able to see it.

Monica, I struggle to wrap my mind around your interpretation.

I think Anthony has a trauma from the accident he suffered with Mary. From there came the Adam.

But Adam has already existed before that accident. Besides Jake (understandably) considers Adam as the main character who wants to return to his wife. When Adam and his wife reconcile, his alter ego and his mistress perish (I don't think they've survived the accident.)

You're talking about the personality of Adam, which seems like a good guy or the real Adam? Because his wife refers to him as Anthony, the agency where he works called him Anthony, but in no time we see someone call him Adam.

The scar left me intrigued, Hagen. So I thought in the accident.
Unless the accident occurred just in his mind(ID vs EGO). One way he finished with the Anthony cheater, his mistress, and return to being a good husband, but in the end with the key he will do everything again.

"Because his wife refers to him as Anthony, the agency where he works called him Anthony, but in no time we see someone call him Adam."

The point could made that Anthony was not real and that Adam was the persona that Anthony created. someone who he could have been, maybe this why Denis V. wanted to make this movie so bad. He connected with it but I think we all can.

After all Denis was studied to become an insect scientist sort of like Gil Grissom from CSI. I often wanted to ask him what made him change his mind that's quite leap from film making.

I meant Adam created Anthony...wow still confused.






Monica said...

I hate white suit: Jake and Maggie

FP said...

OMG
Jake is dressed as Mr. Roarke from fantasy island lol:)

UltraViolet said...

Surprisingly, I don't mind that for some reason.

I think I'm just happy he's not wearing the green cargo pants.

Anonymous said...

He's there, surprised so many of his exes are in attendance and I mean a lot of them.

About the Fantasy Island comment, the theme this year is black and white, so yes its appropriate.

Anonymous said...

This never happens, Maggie looks way better than Jake, That jacket is awful and he looks so tired and miserable.

Monica said...

Many are wearing white suit. I just don't like white suit. ewww


lote of them???

I saw Reese and Kirsten. But it's not the first time they are in the same event.

FP said...

Oh don't worry Anon, I love Jake, I like, unkempt beard, long hair, short hair, clean shaven, with or without ny cap, tuxedo, cargo pants, I also like the jacket from star trek! with me you backgrounds an open door ;)

FP said...

Oh Wow Maggie is beautiful :)

Anonymous said...

The stalker is there, Taylor Swift. But I saw Anne H and Anna Kendrick his onscreen loves who looked beautiful, they don't count as exes but they do count as friends.

Anonymous said...

"Oh don't worry Anon, I love Jake, I like, unkempt beard, long hair, short hair, clean shaven, with or without ny cap, tuxedo, cargo pants,"

Me too FP I just can't take the criticism as a Jake fan.

UltraViolet said...

Sadly, Taylor is there, too.

And many of Jake's cinematic loves: Anna Kendrick, Emmy Rossum, Michelle Monaghan.

This is a kind of a nice picture.

UltraViolet said...

Forgot Anne Hathaway!

FP said...

No reaction to the boxing video? :)


This is why I fainted after seeing it! ;)

I can't handle the hotness of him all focused and sweaty fighting LOL:)

Monica said...

The greasy hair and the beard didn't help, but it's not that bad as his sister.


Also Michelle Williams, Jay-Z, Hugh Jackman, Rashida Jones.

FP said...

Me too FP I just can't take the criticism as a Jake fan.



Anon, I'm not that good to withstand criticism too
and it went well so far, can you imagine what we will face if we were fans of James Franco?! :)

I'm kidding of course I love the mischievous madness of Franco!

FP said...

they don't count as exes but they do count as friends.

Mmm about Anna Kendrick I'm not that sure! ;)

bobbyanna said...

Don't forget Kanye! LOL! He and Jake have been friendly ever since the Jarhead days. So Jake has a lot of friends at the event.

Not a fan of his look, and I don't like the white dinner jacket with the black shirt. It was white tie for the men. Actually, I think Hugh Jackman and Matt Bomer are the best dressed men tonight.

UltraViolet said...

I don't actually like Jake's look. I just don't hate it. Would have been great to see him dressed to kill. But he's smiling, at least :)

Anonymous said...

Yes Jake has a lot of friends there, still can't wrap my around the fact that Jake is friends with Jay Z, Kanye does not surprise me though.

I thought Hugh Jackman looked tired.


"they don't count as exes but they do count as friends.

Mmm about Anna Kendrick I'm not that sure! ;)"

Funny I always thought Anne Hathaway and LOAD was the reason Reese and Jake split. T

Monica said...

Anne was already dating Adam. So, I think they are just friends.

Anonymous said...

To Anon at 9:38

That "awful jacket" is a Gyvenchy dinner jacket and the absolute trend of the moment. What is awful to you is the "it" in men fashion today. He didn't look miserable, nor tired. Maggie looks more tired than him but hides it by smiling. Only problem with Jake's look is the beard-hair combo, it doesn't go with the dressed to the nines thing. Doesn't go with anything. Luckily it will all be gone by June.

Extra said...

I wasn't a fan of either Jake nor Maggie's look last night. Maggie looked like she was wearing shower curtains and Jake looked unkept like he just threw on that expensive jacket and that's all!

Anonymous said...

I think it's the first time i saw Jake wearing a white suit.

BlueJean said...

I think Jake doesn't look that bad at all ;) Love Maggie's hair!

Thanks for all the Enemy posts, guys.
I'm getting more and more confused! :)

"That "awful jacket" is a Gyvenchy dinner jacket and "

I don't care what brand it is, its still looked awful and out of place with all the black, if he had a white bowtie instead of the black one then maybe it would look ok but it did not fit either. And yes Jake looked tired and Maggie looked great-younger in fact.

Thanks for setting me straight about Jake's facial hair come June. I didn't know jake's barber frequent Jake's fan boards.

By the way a lot of boxers do have facial hair so don't be surprised if he keeps the beard but cuts the hair.

Mary said...

I didn't care for Jake or Maggie's outfits either Jake looked okay he's worn worse looking outfits.I think the beard and hair will be gone for Southpaw.

Anonymous said...

Really? Do we really care what he wears?? It's not my fave look but sure he wouldn't be wearing it for long around me.
He's hot and a genius end of

Steve Jacobs ‏@snjacobs 4 h

Just saw Jake Gyllenhaal in SoHo. He looked like a dirty Jesus #nyc

EFK said...

Jake and Maggie were at the Met Gala last night. There are pics. :)

EFK said...

Sorry I realize everyone has already mentioned J and M at the Met event lol.

UltraViolet said...

No problem, EFK. You probably missed the second page of comments at first. It's a confusing system.

Should have a new post up in a bit with some photos.
