Jake Gyllenhaal takes a stroll in NYC and appears in a special evening for military personnel as we remember

Any doubts as to which continent Jake Gyllenhaal might be on right now (one report had him flying from LAX to London yesterday) were dispelled by photos and news. On Friday 9 November Jake was spotted walking hand in hand in NYC with The Mystery Brunette, who we have seen in pictures before, with old friend and Day After Tomorrow co-star Austin Nichols along for the walk as well.

Thanks to IHJ for the lovely pics!

Today is the day that many nations stop and remember those who gave their lives for us and are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for their country. Jake is one of several well known names taking part in a free performance tonight for military personnel in NYC which will feature staged readings from American plays. The night is intended to bridge the gap between the military and performing arts worlds.

And finally...

Congratulations are due to The Shoes who won two awards at the UK Music Video Awards this week for Time to Dance - Best Dance Video and Best Editing. If there had been an award for Best Actor in a Video, I'm pretty sure they would have won that too. Congratulations, The Shoes!

My review of Skyfall is now up on MovieBrit!

I'm celebrating the good news about The Shoes video awards by rewatching Time to Dance - the best creepy serial killer set to music ever!; 11 November 2012 at 19:20
mermon said...: The new pictures of Jake are lovely. Whatever we could think about that mystery relationship, certainly Jake enjoyed that walk with friends. I also get the impression, we saw that lady before.
So fine The Shoes get rewarded, it's very well deserved, thanks to Jake as well. Second award is for Best Editing, I think :)Congrats!; 11 November 2012 at 19:24
Wet Dark and Wild said...: Hi Suan! He does look happy and very relaxed - good to see.

Hi Mermon :) She has popped up in a few pics before. Lovely smile. Thanks for spotting the typo - corrected that.

I hope everyone has had a good day!

ElenaofMiami said...: WDW thank you for the post. I will read your Skyfall review. Can you please show more other photos from before of this girl who is Jake's friend?; 11 November 2012 at 22:50
Minerva By The Sea said...: Hi Kate, loved your Skyfall review! I also found the opening scenes hard to watch - too fast and I was sat too close to the screen to focus on it all! I thought Sam Mendes did a wonderful job! I do like the theme song though even if it is cliched! :-) Our cinema was sold out too, only just got in ! Felt so proud to be a Brit after watching this too! ;-); 12 November 2012 at 07:44
Wet Dark and Wild said...: Hello everyone!

Thanks Elena - there have been quite recent Jake pap photos of Jake out and about in NYC with this girl. I'm not on my PC at the moment but will have a look. Thanks for commenting.

Thanks BMC!

I hope you all had a good evening :); 13 November 2012 at 19:50
