Jake Gyllenhaal
But you need to strive to try and communicate and try and change things in a similar way. And then people can think that's pretentious or whatever, but it's your life's work, and you've decided that.

Jake Gyllenhaal
I don't think I'm sharp enough to not prepare and come on set and kill it.
Jake Gyllenhaal
I think I'm not in this work to not look at life as it is. I'm not in it to say, I want to wear a mask and escape, you know. I want to know what's happening in the world, and I want to have it touch me in a way that I can do something, my little part like that, and have it somehow translate.
Jake Gyllenhaal
My mum raised us on classic movies and a lot of musical theatre.
Jake Gyllenhaal
