Wait...who was Jake Gyllenhaal?
I haven't watched the movie in a while. Refresh my memory....what character did he play? Not just a name, give me some context.

shareHe was Billy Crystal's son. Funny, I just realized that when I saw your post.
Remember... popping his shoulder at the party, and uttering the phrase
"Mom, you said 'lets see how she looks after having two kids"
Oh man... I really need to rewatch City Slickers. Funny thing is, I gave it to my mom for xmas and watched it soon after and didn't even notice Jake!

Well, you can kind of tell, you can see Jake in Danny's eyes and face.
shareYou can tell by the smile. His hair is lighter, but if you know Gyllenhaal's smile you can see it's him. I watched it on TV and did a doubletake and had to come on here to check.

oh shut up rodolfo. he didnt 'become gay' he made an interesting film about two homosexuals. and have you even seen brokeback mountain? i bet you havent. you havent seen what a wonderful job jake did in this film with heath. take ten bucks, go down to your nearest theater where its playing and spend two hours watching it. and just to let you know, we only see them having sex only twice, and we dont even see anything. and its not even about them having sex anyway, its about the love for one another, which you would clearly see in the film, if you would just watch it! now im done ranting.
ps
its not a lifestyle that he chose, it was for an inspiring film. you big jerk.
People are ignorant...but anyway...Jake has a mole or some kind of birthmark near his mouth which definitely distinguishes him...it is weird to see him so young.

the same thing happened to me aylakat. i was channel surfing and came to the part where it's career day in the classroom. i thought that was him and had to come here to confirm it. heee.
shareYou didn't say that you didn't accept homosexuality. You said that Jake was in this movie before he turned gay. He is not gay, he played a gay man. And that is what makes you ignorant.

you dont think so? i saw "day after tomorrow" then 2 days later i saw city slickers for the thousanth time. an i said doooood thats the same person. it is really obvious

Younger Jake looks excatly the same,except now he's buffer and taller.
He looks the same!Haven't aged a day...Haha he's still very,very,very,very young though.We should check this movie out in 50 years and then check Jake.
Maybe he'd still look the same!
It kinda annoyed me cause I could't remember of who Billy Crystal's kid reminds me of.
I've only realised it later and then I was like:No *beep* way!
I forgive,but I don't forget.
"he's a submarine commander!"
Heh, can't believe he gre up to be Donnie Darko... =\
save the gay debate for another thread please.
And you could TO tell that it was him! I just watched it for the first time since I was small, and when I saw the kid I said, "I'll be damned if that's not Gyllenhaal as a child". So :p
i thought exactly the same thing.i saw it on tv(i think it was bbc 1)last night and i couldnt help thinking to myself he looked like a young jake.i was as suprised as hell when the credits rolled and his name came up....
shareBingo. Came here after watching it on Tv last night, and guessed right by the looks, it was young jake
(Couldn't stay awake long enough to catch credits :)
Does anybody know where I can find a clip of this?
shareYeah, go to www.youtube.com and type in "jake gyllenhaal brokejack palance"

Being a huge Jake fan, I thought it was lovely to see him as a child and a little weird,too,knowing him only as an adult and knowing how handsome he was to become. I love his tiny moles on one side of his face and to see them there on an eleven year old's face just did something to me (sentimental old cow)
shareu ever seen the ring? in this movie he reminds of ayden, the little boy.
[never seen the movie but a few pics]
