Errmmm - who's Jake Gyllenhaal?

Thanks for the TR though! I quite like the LAX lounge - especially compared to the ANZ lounges in HKG (United or Thai). There are copious showers and the internet cubicles at the back are not over used.

Star in a few movies. The only ones that come to mind at the top of my head are Brokeback Mountain and The Day After Tomorrow.

Oh come on... you're not that old. I bet you'd know his face if you saw it.

He's very popular with the ladies and men who like men. Very physically fit chap. 27 years old. 6ft. Half noble Swedish, half Russian-Jewish. This adds up to him being more famous for his appearance than perhaps his performances and earnings. He's rarely out of the Hollywood celebrity gossip TV shows and rags. He's allegedly dating Oscar-winning actress Reece Wetherspoon. For more info always refer to http://www.imdb.com/

I'd recommend his movie 'Donnie Darko'. Quite wonderfully disturbing. Also starring Drew Barrymore, Patrick Swayze and Noah Wyle. That's what won me over.

Move over on the dimwit bench so that I can join you.

Mind you, I've always said I wouldn't know a celebrity even if he/she jumped up and hit me on the nose. Having said that I had no difficulty in recognising David Seaman in the LGW Clubhouse a few years ago. Nice bloke. [y]

'Fraid not - believe it's meant to be good? Only got round to watching 'Once were warriors' on the way back home at the weekend.

He also starred in Jarhead and I think he was in Rendition but I haven't seen that one yet. Been around quite a while now Decker, not exactly a 'newcomer' [;)]

I hadn't heard from him until I googled him and realised he was the guy out of the film the Zodiac.

Do we know what his inside leg measurement is, or whether he takes sugar with his tea? [:w]
