Good morning Minneapolis! And a natural for Ol' Blue Eyes?

It's Jason Matheson Week on Fox 9 and, I'm sure you'll agree, it's been a long time coming... To mark the event, Jason presents below his interview with Jake Gyllenhaal from TDAT days, which begins rather curiously - something to do with a transvestite prostitute and her sister - and ends with one of Jake's favourite preoccupations: his abnormally sized head. Roland Emmerich's skill in ensuring he had multiple cameras on hand when tornados hit LA is also commended.



I was in a cafe today, reading someone's newspaper over their shoulder, and saw that there is talk afoot about who Martin Scorsese will cast in his forthcoming biopic on Frank Sinatra. Intriguingly, and rather surprisingly, the paper (it turned out to be the Sunday Express) has named Jamie Foxx as a big favourite. Reading around, Scorsese is searching for an actor to play Sinatra as a young man and, here, amongst the list of possible actors being considered, is Jake Gyllenhaal.


There are a few points to note here - a) Jake already has the hats for this role - this will save pennies on having to make special hats for Jake's abnormally sized head; b) It doesn't take a hat expert to know that Jake appears to have an interest in this period at the moment; c) Jake wants to sing and we want to hear it; d) Jake's eyes are the perfect blue.


Talking of singing, kind of, Ang Lee's film about a 'gloriously sloppy music fest', Taking Woodstock, premiered last night in Cannes. Below is a photograph of Ang, Demetri Martin and Emile Hirsch sharing a Woodstock moment.
