Did he have red eyes and a lipless, mirthless smile?

In other news, I saw Moonlight Mile this weekend, and I realize I 
have a one-track mind, but Jake Gyllenhaal looks like what you'd get 
if you ran Daniel Radcliffe's photo through one of those age--a-face-
up-10-years computer programs.  This is too OT even for -Movie, but 
if you're a Dan fan, check it out.  Incidentally, it was a *good* 
movie, which seems to have been direct-to-airline as I don't recall 
its release at all (Dustin Hoffman, and Susan Sarandon in the best 
performance of hers I've seen--does this sound like a recipe for 
obscurity?), and I can't wait 'til it comes out on video so I can see 
it properly and hear the dialogue that was drowned out by the 
turbines.
