The Basic Truth

Gay Hollywood
"It is astonishing that gay and lesbian Americans are still treated as second-class citizens. I am confident that, very soon, the laws of this nation will reflect the basic truth that gay and lesbian people -- like all human beings -- are born equal in dignity and rights."

This was second time - Jake spent his birthday and Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year in New York 2010/2011.

I had told you that Jake had spent the last two days to greet all as if it had to depart for the Russian steppe

And does it coincide with the divorce of his parents?

Wait - are we all now agreed that Austin was indeed pictured with a flatbed truck?

Anonymous said...

Yes but we don't have enough elements to affirm that it is the same type of truck, or if the truck were indeed of Austin

We have established that Austin was in an extended cab pickup and that mostly the same truck Jake was driving yesterday.

So Jake had lunches with Levine, Austin and others to catch up before going back to New York. Makes sense.

Jack Twist is a big mortgage on the favor of the male public

Ok, please explain why male public doesn't care about actor Jake / Jake's movies because of his role in Brokeback Mountain.

Stephen Roark Gyllenhaal was married to screenwriter Naomi Foner Gyllenhaal for 32 years until their divorce was finalized in 2009 - when Jake was 29.

No, that is YOUR OPINION and has nothing to do with facts or reality.

BBMt is not only a 2005 film, it is a masterpiece, icon and example of pain acceptance tolerance, that has strongly engraved in the imaginary collective, not all have seen it, but all have felt speak of it, so many have seen only some pieces of it, so many others have unloaded parts of it from intrnet, the film in the world has run and won all the possible prizes, it has run to the oscar and it has produced endless discussions obsessions and parodies, if for the world you say Cowboy gay are the eyes of Jake and the melancholy pout of Heath that come to mind.Those that fill theaters for seeing the hangover or fast and fourius, don't go to see BBMt's dude, they are too much fools, they are afraid to be judged and to suffer jokes, and in last analysis they don't want to compare with their sexuality, it is sad but it is this way.

In fact we are saying the same thing, but the clamor of BBMt goes besides the success to the box office as all the works of art their fame it goes over the time and the fashions of the moment, not all have certainly read " War and Peace "but all they know what it is, and they still speak of it, Robert's vampires break the BO, among few years they will be forgotten, but still the people will speak and will remember BBMt, it is the strength of the art

Yes, I'm just trying to make a point that Brokeback Mountain can't be blaimed for Jake's bad box office or career problems.

Yes in facts the problem is not BBMt but the choices of Jake later, that were not to the height and they were not able in any way to separate him from that character and to make him believable in other roles

Of course you can. Having a child doesn't change the basic relationship. You can have a child with someone you can't stand. Only in fiction does a little bundle from heaven always bring a couple closer.

Wrong.

Kids bring parents closer even if there is no love in relationship or parents don't live together. Kids are permanent bond, parents share hopes and fears about their kids.

No I haven't. Relationships are not static no matter gay or straight. Check the divorce statistics.

In one or more of Ted's BVs or letters there are references to J&A being on-again, off-again and tumultuous. Maybe check the super sekrit Word document.

Yesssss, I do. We're talking two different things, joint care of a child and the relationship between the parents are two different things. Both can be terrific parents together and individually, but that doesn't have anything to do with how they are as a couple.

No of course they wouldn't. But just because we can't see everything, doesn't mean they are hiding them. I'm not really sure, so I have an open mind about it. I think there is one or two at the most. Not more, and they are not perpetual babies.

Having kids doesn't automatically make someone responsible (not talking J&A here, just generally).

TBH, I think that a famous Hollywood Dad would do everything in his power to make sure his kids had as normal a childhood as possible, and keep them out of the public eye for safety's sake, too. So if we don't see the kids out or him out with them, it doesn't necessarily mean there aren't any or he's not hiding them. We don't know everythibng. He's being a responsible father.

Now I don't know for sure if he's got kids, but I don't think the idea should rejected out of hand either.

You excuse, I have not perhaps gotten it, but it seems that Ted has implicitly admitted that there are no children or marriages,

^^ NO, You Got it, Somewhat! He implies or is somewhat saying, He knows nothing about Jake and Austin's relationship. If he did, he could have easily given more info about the (children, how the marriage is going, them spending time togther, etc.) He did not because does not know!

Special K said...
Interesting that Ted answers this after Jake and Austin get seen together and how he answers the question.

He doesn't say if they are on or off just hot and heavy. And remember Ted big complaint was they had gotten almost boring in their domesticity.

It could also be that Ted is giving a little hint of them being seen together and then not.

But the bottom line, from what Ted did not say, they are still together.


^^ Special, Special, Special. Oh this is so easy. Ms. Special K, are you aware that you only hear and see what you WANT to SEE?

Special you read just a little too much from Ted's lame response. A 4th grader knows Ted's full of Lame Shit.
