Jake Gyllenhaal recently talked about his upcoming Groundhog’s Day inspired flick, Source Code, in which he returns to the same eight minutes in existence to prevent a major catastrophe.
“I’ve lived a blessed life. I think with regret, regardless of what it might be, if you listen to it is the best teacher, in the way that it has allowed me to live more presently.[...]But in the wake of something like what is going on in Japan, even around the world, I can’t think about something that I would want to go back and re-live in my life, because my life has so far been pretty extraordinary. I would want there to be something like this computer program in the movie: Imagine if you had the ability to go back into a nuclear scientist’s body in Japan, or eight minutes before something happened – you could warn thousands of people what was going on. That’s what I would use it for. It’s hard for me to think about something for myself in the situation that is going on right now.”
More On the Movie
“Because Ben Ripley had written such a tight script and because each Source Code had a specific theme, we named each Source Code [sequence] chapter by chapter,” the actor says. “So the first Source Code was like ‘Absolute Confusion’ and we could make it the more confusing, the better. The second one was very clear and so on and so forth with the different themes. And so knowing the second one was the same, Duncan would come up to me and say: “Make it weirder – treat everyone like they’re a computer game. Respond to them even stranger.” And because we had these clear set rules, we could than vary it…We were constantly thinking about variation and I think that’s what makes each time you go back so intriguing. By the second one you know you’re not entering or exiting the same way.”
Re-living life to do good for others? I knew there was a reason why I love him I’m a fan of Jake G.
