OT - Maggie Gyllenhaal
« on: July 30, 2006, 10:50:13 pm »
 :)  Jake is not the only talented member of his family - actually they all are.  There is a beautiful picture of Maggie and accompanying article in this
week's Entertainment Weekly.  Maggie has no less than 6 movies coming out this year - she has been a busy lady for sure.  Jake also isn't the only gorgeous family member - Maggie shares the eyes and mouth of her younger brother - talent and beauty run rampant in that family. Maggie and Peter's baby is going to be one lucky nephew/niece.................  :D

I agree completley! I love Maggie Gyllenhaal, she is an amazingly talented actress (anyone who thinks differently, just watch her in Secretary  :o ) And, she's almost as beautiful as her brother.... I think her and Peter Saarsgaard make a beautiful couple though.

I love that pic of them, Vic!!

Here's another good one of Jake and Maggie... (Jake before his arms got all buff...)

A couple of Maggie Quotes...

"I didn't act the way little kids do, I threw my whole self into it." "Even in elementary school, I took it really seriously. I was always doing plays."

"I'm a sort of saute with olive oil kind of cook, but my brother is the real deal.  I stay with him when I'm in LA and he cooks these amazing meals for me like Roast with Bechamel, he's very serious about food"

They seem to have such a good relationship, really close.

This is from the Daily Trojan, The Student Newspaper for the University of Southern California..July 26, 2006

Celebrities rally voters
Jake and Maggie Gyllenhaal visit USC to film a segment for the Oprah Winfrey Show.
by Kara Nichols in News

 Jake Gyllenhaal, from "Donnie Darko," and Maggie Gyllenhaal, from "Mona Lisa Smile," made a surprise trip to USC late Monday afternoon to film a segment for The Oprah Winfrey Show promoting how easy it is to register to vote. Along with representatives from Declare Yourself, a non profit, non partisan campaign designed to get youth involved in politics, Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal asked students to either register to vote or, if registered, to sign a promise to Winfrey that they would vote in the upcoming presidential election on Nov.

Maggie Gyllenhaal has been making movie makers and movie goers sit up and take notice for the past few years. Unless you've been asleep at the switch, it was hard to ignore her exposure (both literally and figuratively) as an actress. For one, she appeared nude and got down on all fours in the S&M film Secretary, so it's safe to say that she made a lasting impression on the male psyche.Early on, Maggie Gyllenhaal's career consisted mainly of appearances as a teen. But it was her penchant for taking on new and risky projects that eventually catapulted her into stardom. From 2000's The Pornographer: A Love Story to 2002's Secretary, Maggie is taking Hollywood (and the rest of us) by storm.  She is amazing.

I agree.  And I like that first photo posted of them the best, myself.  Their faces are both so expressive there.  You can read them like open books - all the love and respect for and pride in each other is right there.  Love it.
No more beans!

Very nice pics & post! I LOVED Maggie in "Secretary" - a distinctly odd but sweet love story of sorts. How is it to see your brother or sister naked or near naked on the big screen!? Anyway they are both beautiful and talented. When is the baby due? Anyone know? Anyone know if there's an up-to-date web site for Jake? The "official" jake site is badly out of date.

A good up to date web site is iheartjake.com , you can also try jakewatch.blogspot.com

I read in an interview once where Jake adressed the question of seeing his sister naked in a movie, I don't remember the exact quote but it was something along the lines of, it was weird for him, but he thought it was done very beautifully and tastefully in the movie and that's what mattered.  I also think I read somewhere, regarding BBM, that Maggie said it was very hard for her to see her brother being beat up on screen, during Ennis's thought about Jack being murdered.  I thought that was interesting
