384 - Jarhead

We're tackling Sam Mendes' third feature this week, 2005's war adaptation Jarhead. The film followed Jake Gyllenhaal as Gulf War marine Anthony Swofford trapped in an existential wartime malaise. With a supporting cast that included recent Oscar winner Jamie Foxx and Peter Sarsgaard, expectations were sky high for the film before it received a muted critical reaction and the season proved more positive for Gyllenhaal's turn in Brokeback Mountain.

This episode, we talk about the film's craft pedigree that made its on-paper potential sky high, from Mendes to cinematographer Roger Deakins to composer Thomas Newman to editor Walter Murch. We also discuss Gyllenhaal joining our TEN Timers Club, Sarsgaard's early aught supporting actor run, and how the film cracked the lid on post-9/11 political THOB cinema.

Topics also include Jake thirst gifs, John Krasinski Six Timers, and Oscar winners' Zodiac signs.
