Desert Jake in motion

Update: Full speech here. Not a great recording, but it's all there:






We have some video of Jake at last night's Palm Springs International Film Festival. First up, Jake is interviewed on the red carpet and indulges in a bit of babble:



For those who didn't get to watch the livestream, a couple of clips from Jake's very funny introduction:





In this brief clip of Natalie's speech, Jake can be seen with the Nutcracker/doorman at the side of the stage:



A highlight reel from the night, with the full Audrey Hepburn comparison included (it's at the end):



More video of Jake on the red carpet and signing autographs for fans. And an account of the presentation from People. Mary Hart interviews Natalie and Jake, but mostly Natalie, as well as other Festival attendees. She doesn't seem to hold Jake's underwear joke against him :)

A fun flashback to Jake's appearance at the film festival in 2006:

In the desert tonight

Jake Gyllenhaal will be presenting an award to Natalie Portman at the opening gala for the Palm Springs Internaitonal Film Festival. You can watch a livestream of gala coverage here. They seem to be inside the venue, so maybe we'll get to actually see the presentation.



Will update the post with better pictures as the evening progresses.

Et voila. They are trickling in...

Some scarily bad photos of two beautiful people:

Not the best view

Maybe our chins are in these boxes!

Jake and Natalie's wax figures.

Look - they move!

Jake refuses to look at Natalie's bedazzled Amish figure skating outfit

Video of Jake being interviewed and asked about Natalie, Anne and Taylor:

Dog days of summer

ETA: Jake on the cover of a magazine I'd never heard of before seeing the photo.

Yes, there is a lot of Jake Gyllenhaal news out there today. Well, more like one story being repeated ad nauseam. But the last post was getting a bit long, so in an effort to freshen up, let's take a little trip to Australia. Sure, it's bitter January cold here in the northeast. But the sun was shining and summer was in swing when Jake and Anne visited Sydney for Love & Other Drugs promotion.

This is a longer version of an interview we've seen. Jake reveals that he doesn't have an assistant while Anne tells us what good habits she's learned from Jake:



A Dutch interview with Jake and Anne can be found here.

Some fan photos of Jake and Anne from the premiere:



Is it two ls and one a? I always forget..."

Back to winter: Jake has spent many an afternoon recently at ABC Kitchen. Here he is, hopefully not googling himself:

Jake will present Natalie Portman with an award at the Palm Springs International Film Festival on Saturday. In 2006, Peter Sarsgaard did the honors for Jake. Here, they joke about what they are going to say:



See more of Jake and Peter joking around on the red carpet here.
