There is nothing wrong with Jake Gyllenhaal really He's freakishly good looking, a grin to die, for and is one of my favorite actors. I especially love Jake's early work. The Good Girl and especially Donnie Darko which are two of my favorite films. But... why can't this guy keep a girlfriend?
Long term romances with Kristen Dunst and Reese Witherspoon, a rumored romance with Natalie Portman and a questionable short fling with Taylor Swift (really Taylor you have to slow down). I think many of us were rooting for Jake and Reese, on the surface they appeared a perfect couple. The word perfect might be the problem. Jake is a great actor and except for a mini drama over the promotion of Brokeback, Gyllenhaal has remained pretty much drama free. Although any siting of Jake continues to take my breath away, he is so drama free that even appearances on talk shows and the Oscars last week are, well, kind of boring...
Jake has done such a great job of connecting with the press and keeping his private life private even his break ups from Dunst and Witherspoon were quiet and drama free with issues like 'work pressures' and 'quietly drifted apart' cited as the reasons.
Now I am not suggesting Gyllenhaal pull a Sheen, Hollywood needs its good guys, but it might be nice to maybe just once see a bit of of an edge, a crack in the 'he's such a nice guy' that themes everything written about him. Then again... the time with Swift sort of showed a crack don't you think? Maybe a bigger one than he intended...
