I am simply appalled by the very incompetent interviewer! >:( It wasn't the right moment to ask that question, and so casually too. >:(

Plus Vera Farmiga starred in Roar with Heath.

In this backstage interview from the Oscars, apparently Jake is asked about Heath.
To tell you the truth, I haven´t been able to watch it yet because I feel a bit apprehensive about it. According to some of the comments, Jake doesn´t look very comfortable.

Me neither. For the reasons Mikaela mentioned:
--- Quote from: Mikaela on March 10, 2010, 04:31:08 pm ---I started watching it but once Heath's name comes up and the setting is so wrong for any kind of substantial comment, the whole venue is so wrong, and the mood is "we're having fun and we're in a hurry" and the interviewer could be asking about the weather for all he (the interviewer) seems to care I just couldn't watch what poor Jake had to say. It wasn't fair that this question comes in this way. I'm sure Jake fields it adroitly with a couple of polite nothing words and a sufficiently serious expression, but...augh! It's just so sad that Heat's death has been reduced to a talking point in random inane shallow Oscar interviews on the red carpets after they've done talking about the dresses and purses and what a great time everyone's having. *sigh* :-\

Heath deserves so much better than a quick mention on the red carpet. I'll console myself listening to Daniel Day Lewis' classy and hearthelt tribute. That's the way it should be done!

I'll always be grateful to DDL for paying such great tributes to Heath. :)
Jake seemed uncomfortable when asked about Heath. I think that's the first time he spoke publicly about Heath.
On a shallow note, Jake and Rachel McAdams looked good together presenting.
Brown Eyes:
I'll be interested in seeing what he said. I'll have to sneak a look sometime here at work (because I can't watch videos on my home computer).
It's not Jake's fault if that's the context in which the question came up. I don't think it's disrespectful. Red carpets and award shows, etc. are a basic part of the profession. And, I think it was almost inevitable that someday the question would come up in that context.
I've always been of the opinion that Jake, as one of Heath's most significant co-stars, probably should have made a more formal eulogy or statement after Heath's passing. I think it's strange that someone like Daniel Day-Lewis did so, and not someone like Jake. By not taking the opportunity to make a statement in his own way, and on his own terms... it, again, made it almost inevitable that the way the question would come up (some day) would be off-the-cuff... or in a moment when he'd be caught off guard by a reporter, etc.
