old oprah interview with bbm cast
« on: January 29, 2008, 12:45:12 am »
i just read the transcript from the oprah episode when she interviewed bbm cast.  i thought i'd pass this on.


oprah asks: "some people are upset at the movie for portraying a homosexual relationship.  how do jake and heath feel about such criticism?"

heath: "i still find it personally disappointing that people kind of go out of their way to voice their disgust or their opinions against the ways in which two people choose to love one another.  i think that's really unfortunate."


thanks heath! 8)  hopefully everyone will take your message to heart....

I checked that IheartJake.com still has the clip - and they do.

Go to that  site's Media/Talkshows section and scroll down a little. There it is. I haven't checked whether it's available on Youtube, but I would be surprised if it isn't.

However, I realized - personally, I can't watch it yet. Not yet.

I remember how thrilled I was to see it back in the day though, because Jake was filming Zodiac, so he wasn't around for much of the publicity and I think Oprah was the first chance we had in forever of actually seeing Heath and Jake together; - promoting the film. And they sure looked good and seemed to enjoy each other's company.

I never saw the Oprah show for this. He said it very well.

They sure did.  I posted this over in the Jake thread in the new Heath forum... but it seems appropriate here too.

I always thought that Jake and Heath looked like they had a lot of fun together... and it also always looked like they were genuinely leaning on one another for support during more stressful interviews, situations, etc.  I think they just had boat-loads of natural chemistry together... which, I'm sure helped with conveying really strong emotions in BBM.  I mean, they really must have been truly close... I can't imagine Heath (and Michelle) naming Jake godfather to Matilda if they didn't genuinely have a strong bond.

Poor Jake.  I hope he's doing OK.
