Why is the "dozy embrace" in the film?

I think Jake's eyes and eyelids were the first things I notice when I first saw him, in real life, not the movie. Then the emphasis in the movie just did me in. Eyes and lips (lips, not a typo for lids), are usually the first things I notice when I meet people because they say so much about the person before you actually talk to them. I could sit and stare at Jake's eyes for days....Doug

Wait! Wait! Wait! Doug ... are you saying you have met this beautiful man? Can I keel over and die right now?

I didn't expect such a reaction from you, Diane, but no, not up-close-and-personal. Just as an object of movie-star searching. I have friends still living in the LA/Hollywood area, and SOMETIMES when we hit the streets we often run into "people", at taco stands, ice cream parlors, fast-food places (it's surprising how many rich and famous people dine "fast-food" mode). I'm not one to run up to and attack a star, but I know some who do! Maybe next time!
And no, don't keel over just yet...he may be in your neck of the woods soon. "Neck-of-the-woods" is country for "locale".

Not to say that I would attack Jake (of course, not to say I wouldn't ... ::)), but LORDY! He is beautiful. I think I would choke on a taco if he walked by. :o SIGH!
BTW, sad to say … I know what “in your neck of the woods” means. I live in a very rural place! :-\

I think if I ever met Jake in person - or even see him at a distance - I would jump up and down and scream "Jake!!" Then throw myself at him. Or else I would just stand there, slack-jawed and drooling; I'm not sure which. There are a fair amount of movies filmed in Minneapolis and believe me - I'm not one for breaking the law but I would stalk that man until he had to get a restraining order out on me if he was filming in location in Mpls! (oh please please please)
Jack/Jake's soft face in the dozy embrace is too beautiful for words. He looks like an angel (okay it's starting to get a little late and I'm starting to get a little sappy) but he is beautiful. Jennifer Aniston's character, Justine, says about Jake's character, Tom/Holden, that he has "pouty lips like a woman." and his eyes turn down at the corners, making him look melancholy. Jake can look so broody and yet when he laughs every part of his face laughs, too. It kind of sounds like I'm in love with Jake Gyllenhaal, doesn't it? THAT'S CUZ I AM!! :-*
