The Brother Lode



EpixHD, who gave us this wonderful video of Jake doing a promo, just posted about 200 Brothers stills, as well as new video interviews with Jake Gyllenhaal, Natalie Portman and Tobey Maguire. Are you supposed to find prisoners hot?



These are just gorgeous shots of Jake. I love the one with Tommy and Sam graffiti, though I don't think we get a shot of that in the movie.






Jake had great rapport with the two young actresses playing his nieces, and this snowman scene was really fun.





Sadly, this scene is not in the movie. I would have liked to see more of Player Tommy.




And just because:



A couple of videos - in the first, the trio discuss getting into character:



Natalie and Jake talk about big vs. small. Budgets, people!



Though he doesn't talk about Jake specifically, Roger Ebert gave Brothers 3.5 stars. Even better, Salon raved (justifiably) about Jake:

Jake Gyllenhaal shines in an undeniably grown-up movie about love and loss in the shadow of Afghanistan. ...

Of the three leads, Gyllenhaal gives the finest performance. He's jittery and charismatic -- his eyes shift uncomfortably, as if he were constantly looking for escape. Among Tommy's problems is the fact that he's never been the favored son. His father, an ex-Marine (played by a gruff, angular-looking Sam Shepard), approves of Sam's courage and sense of responsibility and derides Tommy as the fuckup he is. When Shepard and Gyllenhaal appear in a scene together, the air around them is charged -- it's as if the searching, vulnerable quality in Tommy's eyes registers as a taunt in the manly-man world of his father.

The chemistry is a lot less charged, unfortunately, between Gyllenhaal and Portman. Gyllenhaal is superb at channeling his confused feelings into physical awkwardness. ...

    Interesting audio Twitter review of Brothers, mostly because the tweete rmentions that Jake was supposed to be at the screening but "couldn't make it." The producer (one assumes Ryan Kavanaugh) was also supposed to speak, but apparently, most people didn't want to stick around to hear him :)

    Also, E! has a longer version of the Ben Lyons interview - sorry, Monica :)

    There's some good stuff in there. Look also for the "Lyons Den Trivia" vid, where Jake talks about the Adam Levine/I Ran SNL video.

    Our beloved Prime Minister Gordon Brown, yes I'm being sarcastic, welcomed the well known American actress Renee Witherspoon to the House of Commons yesterday, twice - yes really *rolls eyes*

    Hmmm, Jake couldn't be at the screening, Reece (or Renne as she's now known) should still be over here for JR recording today (shown tomorrow night)- I shall keep my eyes peeled

    These stills are beautiful, and so many of them too. One more day for the premiere!

    Love what Stephanie Z from Salon had to say about Jake, great review. I remember she was one of the few critics at the time to praise his performance in BBM.

    I know a few people for some reason that get Reese and Renne mixed up! Hmmm, where is Jake? LOAD wrapped and they had the cast party according to tweets, enough time to be back in L.A. last night.

    I can't believe that Jake is such a fan of D. Kaye, I would have never have thought that, Hans C. Anderson is one of my fav films too! What an eclectic choice of songs he chose to play and so personal. I've learned a bit more about him and his family from listening to it, thanks so much!

    Brothers Review:

    Likewise, Gyllenhaal is able to express much with just the slightest gesture, inflection or pause. As the drifter navigating somewhere between indifference and grief, his is the most real character in the film.

    Ben Lyons??? Argh!

    Thank you for highlighting that part, Monica. I know I sound like a broken record to UV with this, but it's that that Jake does so well, especially in this film. His reaction shots, his sideways glances, all the little nuanced things he brings to a scene make him so fascinating to watch.

    You can be a broken record, FL. It's that thing Sheridan was talking about when he described Jake's being in character, taking everything in, etc. He's a joy to watch. He really engages.

    Jason Matheson, an entertainment reporter on Fox just tweeted that he "is on standby" to interview Meg Ryan and Jake Gyllenhaal.
    These photos are beautiful, UV. Maybe there will be a Director's cut and we can see even more of Jake.

    I despise Lyons, but I will have to click on it just to see Jake's longer interview.

    Kimmel usually tapes the same day he airs so I would assume Jake is in L.A. right now.

    Too bad they edited out the scenes of Jake and that girl in the bar from Brothers, that would have been fun to watch.

    The rest of the reviews for Brothers should be in now, i'll check the rottentomato site.

    Duncan Jones' 'Source Code' Could Be The Best Sci-Fi Movie in Years

    Playlist

    It kicks off with COLTER (to be played by Jake Gyllenhaal), a thirty year old man with a military buzz cut, waking up on a commuter train heading into Penn Station from New Jersey.

    Love this:
    Jones couldn't be a better choice to direct - it expands the scope from his debut film a little, while playing to its strengths (great capacity with actors, love for thoughtful sci-fi). Gyllenhaal is a solid choice for the lead, and we look forward to seeing the rest of the cast fill out. We imagine that we'll see "Source Code" hit theaters in the early part of 2011, and we can't wait.

    He does. Matter of fact, his taping begins at 7pm Pacific, ends right at 8pm Pacific - just an hour before it goes to air at 12.05AM Eastern. The veneer of his desk is much duller in person than it appears on television. Weird that.

    I love all those interviews, videos and the pictures. For me this is special because I do not know when I will be able to watch the film....

    I am waiting for Kimmel and the premiere.

    Chica, Brothers is not doing so well at Rotten Tomatoes. IMO "Metacritic" is much more reliable because all critic scores are converted to a 100-point scale.
    Brothers at Metacritic

    They also have a user score - we are able to vote and make comments starting with the release date.

    It would be great chance to support the film and Jake on that site - it is used by many film geeks to inform themselves....:-))

    I did love how they showed the Tommy/Grace kiss twice and they showed a clip of Jake and Reese at the Vanity fair party and a pic of Jake and his parent's and Atticus, I can't wait to get home to hear it.

    There has been so much news that I haven't had a chance to catch up, I need to listen to DJ Jake's selections and read UV and FL's Brothers review among other things.

    4:57: People still has the reps.denial up on their site as well. The reason why the first story is still up and visible as oppose to the second up and invisible is because the former had more hits, simple.

    People on the stands doesn't have break-up, but trouble and Us says that everything is great and the People story is BS, dueling rags with different stories, oooh the plot thickens!


    Heads up: The TV guide special on Brothers looks like sit down interviews with the cast that looks like it was done on the 21st during the press junket and the premiere looks like footage from the NY premiere. I doubt that there is anything happening in L.A. tonight.

    Tweets placed Jake in Pittsburgh on Mon & Tues. and LI yesterday but i would think he is back in LA to tape Kimmel for tonight.

    Reese is on her way back from the UK, she already taped the J. Ross show.

    The reviews for Brothers range from good to mixed, I plan on seeing it this Saturday. Thanks for the links to the reviews and thanks for your reviews as well UV & FL!

    Ok I just watched the TV guide special on Brothers and was very dissapointed. The interview with Jake was brief and i'm sure I've seen it already. Also it wasn't recent, it looked like it was done around the same time as he did the In style photoshhot.

    They added clips from Jake's other red carpet appearences because he wasn't there for the NY premeire. It was very heavy on Tobey and Natalie Jim and the girls who are adorable but I was hoping for more and new Jake.

    Which reminds me, I better tivo Kimmel tonight!

    The woman reviewing for the LA Times is saying Jake and Toby fail to bond convincingly as brothers.
    These criticisms stand out bcz there are so few of them. They come from left field!

    I agree,the TV Guide thing was somewhat disappointing.I always want more Jake.:) Thanks for the heads up,FL.

    Something about Jake's "humorous, life of the party"style in a few, not all, of the interviews,seems almost manic,to me. Like it's forced,as if he feels obligated to be funny.I picked up some edginess.

    I like it better when there's a balance and he's a little more conversational.(With Ben Lyons I guess he did what he had to, to get thru it! But it was a little odd.:))I really loved the radio segment with the 5 songs,where he was just talking. (He'd probably done a dozen interviews the day he did E!)

    Truthfully, I'm just grateful he's been on so much and we are seeing some decent promotion for his movie.

  38. bobbyannaDecember 3, 2009 at 10:54 PM

    Speaking only for myself, IMO, Ben Lyons tries to noticeably dominate interviews and he talks too much. (That's probably good when his interview subject is boring and inarticulate.)He also steers it where he wants it to go and doesn't give his subject a chance to talk. He also doesn't have a lot to say, when he talks too much.:) I just don't care for his personality, I guess.

    Okay, fair enough. I guess I can see that. He fancies himself somewhat of a "personality" rather than just a movie reviewer, doesn't he?

    Oh and in case you were a little worried, like I was, that Jake might be a last minute no-show, because hey, stranger things...

    His name is listed as a guest.

    I am worried that he has all these guests on tonight. Kimmel never has 3 guests + musical act. Sigh...

    When I saw photos of Reese in a beautiful pink coat, and her make-up was flawless even tho the caption said she was on her way to Heathrow,I thought she was going to tape Ross, then go to the airport. Now I'm just puzzled.

    Love the fake Tattoo bit, he is so full of energy and so funny. The TV guide special was a bit of a snooze. Glad that an interview will airof him tonight on the same channel, maybe it will make up for last night. He also has an interview with some Fox show if i'm not mistaken .

    I will probably catch Brothers this weekend, probably on a Sunday, thanks for all the links to the reviews.

    I also think that After this Jake will "disappear", we have been so spoiled these past few weeks after such a drought.

    People Magazine's Breaking Jake and Reese News of the Day: Jake Gyllenhaal Drops the G-Word:

    Is there hope for Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon's relationship?

    Amid reports of "are they or aren't they still a couple," Gyllenhaal, 28, used the buzz word of the week – girlfriend – shortly after arriving at a Beverly Hills Hotel suite Thursday for a press conference for his new film Brothers.

    "I've learned so much from the kids in my life, and somehow they just become the center of your life and the way you look at things," he told Grazia Australia, referring to his 3-year-old niece Ramona (daughter of Maggie Gyllenhaal) and possibly Witherspoon's children, Ava, 10, and Deacon, 6. "Obviously I exist in my girlfriend's world and my sister's world in a different way, but it's opened my heart and I feel much more grown up and want to be grown up as a result of it."

    Regardless, he'd rather talk about his movie about a love triangle with Natalie Portman and Tobey Maguire than about his actual love life.

    "As I get more famous, there is less that is just mine so I hope you understand I want to protect that as much as I can," he says. "I understand the news cycle, I really do, but as we all know news cycles come and go and I don't have to comment on them."

    A source maintains to PEOPLE that Gyllenhaal and Witherspoon have split after two years together, but their reps say they are still together.

    They have never talked openly about their relationship..other than a mention here and there by Reese - but never goes beyond anything surface..talking about the Farm..talks about she and her children..but doesn't mention Jake is there too. (And they only..through pictures..let it be known they were a couple. They'd been seeing each other months before that...doing their best not to have their picture taken together.)
    So it's not surprising he has nothing to say to the reporters, etc.
    People doesn't seem to want to let go.
    So many couples in the public eye talks about their relationships in terms of telling about everything that goes on - so it seems odd to the reporters that not everyone does.
    I figure we'll be seeing them out and around before long.

    I'm not a fan of Kate Hudson's, but I thought her quote from Harper's Bazaar could very well fit the Reese/Jake situation.

    On why she doesn’t talk about her relationships : “I have a child, and there are people involved, and it’s unfair to talk about somebody else, especially when you’re not in that place yet to be discussing those things. If I was sitting here with a belly out to here, I’d be talking about what the relationship is and how important that is in my life right now.”
