All due apologies to the main cast of Maggie Gyllenhaal's
The Bride!, meaning Jessie Buckley and Christian Bale mainly, but I was always going to begin this post with a picture of Jake -- no matter how small his role in the movie might be (and it's honeslty a little bit bigger than I assumed it would be) (that's what he said) it's always him. And thankfully a couple of extra shots from that
new photoshoot I shared yesterday appeared this afternoon so no need for redundancy. Anyway! Exclamation point! The time has come, now that
The Bride! is in theaters, for me to review
The Bride! -- funny how that works.
Click on over to Pajiba to read my thoughts on the movie, which is...
... a lotta movie. I'm gonna make you click to find out if I liked it or not. But in related news the movie is already available to pre-order on physical media -- no release date set yet but buy the limited 4K steelbook
here, or just the regular ol' blu-ray right
here. That said you should probably watch the movie first, given how all over the map reactions have been. Also of note, physically-media speaking -- Waxwork Records is putting out a vinyl of the film's soundtrack which delightfully includes a few songs sung by Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal himself! That's out in May supposedly,
you can pre-order it here. What a good sister Maggie is, giving her brother a lil' singing and dancing spotlight to savor. The boy loves a spotlight.

Unrelated, BUT ...
I have never been a fan of little Tímmottée, but I am now cancelling him after he spewed this:
“I don’t want to be working in ballet or opera, or, you know, things where it’s like, ‘Hey, keep this thing alive’”.
Yes thank you for bringing this week-old tired nonsense over here for no reason, as if it hasn't been turned into the dumbest possible awards season bullshit narrative already. And make sure to divorce the quote from all context of what he was talking about just as everyone else who already had a stick up their ass about him already did so they can play the world's saddest little pile-on
I've watched the interview. The context is clear and unequivocal.
You mean "Give me my goddamn Oscar already!!! I’ve been workin' six or eight years and have waited ENUF!" Maybe he'll be the new Barbara Stanwyck.
I mean...I don't care for him as an actor and even I can see how THAT'S been blown out of proportion.
