OT - Maggie Gyllenhaal

Kelda:
OFFICE ROMANCE

Award-winning actress and mum to new baby Ramona, Maggie Gyllenhaal, has spoken of how difficult it was making a film with her fiancé Peter Sarsgaard. They played a couple with serious relationship problems in the film High Falls, and Maggie found it emotionally draining having to fight all day at work. She said, "He was playing a big jerk and it was hard for me to be around him all day long. We were in a terrible relationship in the movie… I love his acting and I would love to make many movies with him but I want to make sure that the making of the movie will be good for us, because I'm not sure that the making of High Falls was good for us."

Ellemeno:
In the post-Golden Globe interviews on E!, Maggie was asked how she liked Jake's rendition of the Dreamgirls song on SNL.  Here is my best effort at remembering her verbatim response:

"Well, I have to tell you the truth, we have a 3 month old, so I haven't seen Dreamgirls yet, because it's impossible to go a theater now.  But I could have told any of you that my brother was born to host Saturday Night Live.  Absolutely born for it.  I think he KILLED it, I mean SLAYED it."

I guess saying he killed it is a good thing?  She sure was smiling while she said it.

I agree. She made a much bigger impression on me than Jake did in DD.

What I love about her is that I don't think I've ever seen her, whatever the occasion, look over-styled and over-madeup. She never tries too hard. The woman has incredible poise and holds herself like she's absolutely her own person always - very, very sexy.

Contrast this with, for example, J-Lo - stunningly beautiful in 'Out of Sight', but now? After all the stylists and other assorted 'assistants' have had a go she looks like a shop mannequin. It's like they liposucked her personality...

Ellemeno:
I love how she looked in Stranger Than Fiction.
