So what did everyone think?

Personally, after seeing him today and also on Leno last night, I'm not sure I like Jake's attitude toward the entire film. He sort of has a "Oh yeah, it's a beautiful story but it -is- gay, afterall" perspective. And Heath just seemed sort of noncommital. I realize that they can't put themselves in our place and see the movie from where we saw it, and that a movie is a lot different when you're the person behind the scenes trying to portray it to the world. But it still kind of bugs me out to see it because the actors are so closely wrapped now with my image of Jack and Ennis. I think I'd feel the same way if I saw either of them in another movie. But that's just me.

How about everyone else out there?

Awesome show. And Oprah saying "go see it" really means A LOT.
On a side note, it's incredible how much Jake and Heath really ARE like Jack and Ennis.

Well I loved it (link was already posted so I merged both threads)

They were very funny, I'm upset it was only half the show though.

My sum up: Heath and Jake are friends, the reunion kiss was the 1st scene they ever shot...and Anne said what we all knew: Lureen knew about J&E!

I also cannot wait for oscar nominations and for Jake to shout "Jack Nasty loves you" when Heath wins the Oscar for best actor!!!!

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

I drastically rearranged my schedule to be able to come home and see the caste on Oprah.  I wanted to see Heath on Jay Leno, but I was so tired that I fell asleep with the TV on, missed it, and woke up at 4am with the TV still on.

Oprah seems like an ethical sincere person who would not give false praise.  She spoke of Brokeback Mountain as a serious major achievement in films (my words).

One of the caste members mentioned how they always log on to some popular website for the movie (just kidding).

I do not follow the news much at all. I was not aware of the romance and marriage and new baby girl, but I find such news heartwarming.

Jake seems the most beautiful, charming, sparkling personality out of the four very beautiful and sparkling actors.

All four seem to possess the wonderful quality of humility and equanimity in the face of a praise and fame which might inflate the eqos of less tempered souls.

Anne did talk a lot...but then again Michelle and Heath never do!!! Plus she is the one that has less media attention...she took this opportunity to be noticed!
Did you how pissed off she looked when Oprah praised Michelle about the reunion kiss scene??

Yes, we enjoyed the Oprah experience. These actors are so young and especially Anne was so different from Lureen it was quite scary..she's talented, too! Heath is so uncomfortable and humble, Michelle is so supportive, and Jake so energetic...can you believe how great this movie was cast??? Thanks to Oprah...with her plugging the movie on a Friday LOOK for a big box office this weekend!!!! (11 nominations Tuesday)

Jake does seem to come out the way you describe. I didn't like his interview with Leno either. It makes you think when he said he first heard the movie as gay cowboy and he just didnt want to have anything to do with it. He then said because he was only 16 at that time. Later, he heard that Ang Lee was directing the movie so he came on board. I would hope that his decision was based on the characters and story and how they could inspire him to take on a such role.

You are right. They didn't see the movies from us. Perhaps that explains why this movie is a success because they didn't bear our expections in mind.

I think artists are not really able to watch themselves objectively. AND I think we really don't want to believe the BBM characters are not real! (Some on this forum have said they are going to avoid seeing interviews with the stars!) Give Jake et al a break. Remember that the BBM characters which have had such an effect on us came from inside these actors and the wonderfully written story and screenplay and a great director and production staff.  Our experience would have been different with a different cast and crew...THANKS TO OPRAH.

And I loved what Anne Hathaway had to say regarding the Oscars, and I can't remember it exactly, but it was like the movie had hit so many people in the heart, the awards are are like, secondary...I'll have to go back and watch it again.

I loved how flirty Oprah was with the boys.  :)  And her audience of (mostly) women (mostly) over 30 going crazy over "A Passionate Affair.  Two Gorgeous Men.  Secretly In Love."   Hee!  Oprah fan are so slashers!

You are right. They didn't see the movies from us. Perhaps that explains why this movie is a success because they didn't bear our expections in mind.

I looked at it a second time and I don't think Jake had an attitude.  He and Anne are cut-ups and they brought needed humor to the interview.   I agree, I didn't care for Jake's "Leno" interview either or even the "Ellen" interview.   The "Ellen" one was funny, but he was much more relaxed and gave more thoughtful answers in the "Oprah" one.

You could see Heath and Jake getting uncomfortable when Oprah started asking the same old tired questions every interviewer has been asking them - Is the movie going to hurt your career?  What was it like doing the kiss?  What about the intimate tent scene?   Very few original questions - boring, boring, boring  etc.

The person I'd like to see interview that group is Charlie Rose.  He's an exceptional interviewer and always asks thoughtful questions..

From an outsider perspective, it appears that very few of the film's makers saw the potential of BBM.  As Heath mentioned in the interview (it's also been mentioned in print interviews) - it was supposed to be a little film like an art house film.  Well crafted, but a lesser Ange Lee film that few people would see. 

I think it's very interesting that they didn't praise Annie Proulx for her great short story and Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana for their screenplay.  If you don't have a story and a screenplay you don't have a movie.

You are right. But I have seen the interview which Heath said how much he was drawn to the script (not to Larry and Diana directly though). I did not remember reading anything which the case refers to Annie Proulx short story.

My boyfriend did comment on Jack for appearing a little bit cocky. (sorry Jake's fans).

For me, I am just happy to see the cast for the first time together and promote this movie. Even though the questions are tiring and old, I still want to see and hear them for the first time.  :)
Title: Re: Oprah: It's here & Your thought
Post by: ranchgal on Jan 28, 2006, 02:12 AM
I really enjoyed the O segment.
I also think that Jake is being honest.   The first time,  He hadn't read the story, didn't know anything except the screen play and if he was 16 then and is 24 now---that is some years back, I can see why he wouldn't have anything to do with it, it would have killed his carreer back then.

He and Heath both were brought into the movie because of the quality of the screenplay, and the fact that they both trusted Ang to do the movie and their characters justice.
This movie could have been just as bad as Jake originally feared about it IF it would have been in the wrong hands.   That is why it was around for years and NO one would actually try to make it.

these four actors are all under 27 and suddenly placed under every scrutiny that our society can throw at them---just exactly how do you think most mid 20 year olds would handle all that hype??
I think these are outstanding young actors and doing a great job of trying to stay grounded and true to themselves while everyone wants them to BE something. Promote something, Give something.  I can see why they get bored with the same questions, and people trying to pull them in one direction or another.    They made this movie over 18 months ago and
 they are not the characters they play!   They also are not trying to make a stand on any idological  adjenda---they are trying to promote an entertainment movie, with questionable content for mainstream America--I think they are doing one heck of a job, esp. considering they all have other irons in the fire, and have other movies to promote too.

I agree that Jake's statements can be taken differently by different people, but there is an awful lot of pressure surrounding this movie, and if they would have known about all the controversy, and all the viewpoints---I can see where they would have felt too much distraction to do the job right and be hesitant to take up something like it again too soon.   It would have been tough for them to act natural if they would have realized how under a microscope their every scene would be.
I thought Oprah did a good job of letting them be entertaining, and still keep the focus on the movie, and NOT get all the mid American conservatives that watch her every day upset.
The promotion the movie got today is irreplacable.    Where Oprah goes, most of middle America is willing to follow.

Hi all, saw the interview late but really enjoyed it. I thought that it was too short and I would have definitely liked to have seen them answer some more in depth question...however, I thought the chemistry between Jake and Heath was amazing. Michelle and Heath are like one person they are so similar (very cute) whereas Jake and Heath are such polar opposites that they have a lot of sizzle (from my perspective anyway), or as Jake says 'they're kind of a ying and yang that makes a whole. I think they did well overall. Parts I didn't like: the way Oprah said Jake kissing Anne must have been such a relief after 'kissing him' (meaning Heath). Poor Heath. Jeez. I mean what sane person wouldn't love kissing Heath  ;). Parts I liked: Some of the humour was great, especially Heath talking about having 'something else to give' in the tent scene. Hilarious  :D Also loved the 'Jack Nasty loves you' comment. Anne is hilarious too.

I thought the cast from BBM did a great job, but Oprah was too
time-constrained to really give BBM a fuller treatment that it should
have received.  I agree that it would have taken an entire show to do it
justice, but given the time I thought the impressions given about the
movie and its cast went over quite well.

Jake was really funny... and, yes, he should do comedy, but doing it
exclusively would not show off his incredible breadth of acting
skills... so I hope he doesn't get type-casted.  He definitely was the
life of the party... so maybe he should have his own talk show!  Gawd...
"Jack Nasty loves you!!!"... that kills!

Heath was much more relaxed and I thought did great with his objection
to so much criticism over how two people should love each other.
Whereas Heath was the shy thinker, it played off well with Jake, being
the "funny guy".  The chemistry really lends itself to the Ennis and
Jack characters that they had to play.

Michelle, she was just adorable.  And, yes, that comment that Heath made
about her being the perfect mom... did you see how she just lit up!  I
also heard that the scene where her character, Alma, inadvertently sees
Ennis and Jack kissing were among the first ones shot!  Did I hear
right?

Anne, now she has a natural persona in the limelight.  I really liked
the way she described Michelle and Heath having sparks... and just died
when she covered her face when Oprah brought up the sex scene with Jake.

Overall, I guess Oprah could not dwell too much on the controversial
aspects since that would have definitely used up the time like
nothing... but she balanced things alright so that people would at least
go and see the movie.

My 2 cents...

Peace,
Frank

I can hardly wait for the Oscars--IF Heath would win, I can hardly wait to see Jake jumping up and hugging him and mouthing that statement! LOL

OH ya, Go watch Bubble Boy----he is an absolute riot in it---it is the dumbest storyline, but he pulls it off as a laugh riot, and you can tell he has an excellent sense of comic timing!!  I had to buy the tape after I saw part of it on tv one night.

It is playing Sun. Feb.19th on Comedy Central twice---10:30 am Eastern, and 4:30 pm Eastern.
Between him and that biker---I about fell off my chair!!

Also Good Girl is playing on Oxygen Feb. 2, 9pm Eastern, and Feb. 3rd, 8pm Eastern. But his part in this one is NOT overly funny at all.   More disturbed young man type again.

True they've all commented in various interviews on the fine screenplay that kicked around Hollywood for years. 

It may have been cockiness - I just saw Jake as relaxed and not in awe of Oprah.  Maybe they all had a drink before the show. :-)   

Interesting that Oprah's film clips included at least one deleted scene.  Her voice overs were not necessary.  I admit I don't watch Oprah or daytime TV so I'm not familiar with the MO of her shows.

Yes, Ange Lee really was the key to making the film. James Schamus the producer (and Co-President of Focus Features) wrote the screenplay for Lee's film "The Ice Storm" so they had a connection.  Gus Van Sant and Joel Schumacher, both gay directors had been associated with it but for some reason I guess couldn't get the backers.

I agree, it's amazing that such a young cast is handling the media frenzy so well. They appear to have bonded and maintained those friendships which is a support for times like this.

Each one of them portrayed characters outside anything they've done in the past.  I'd expect producers, directors and casting coordinators will be taking a second and third look at them for future films.

Agreed - few questions and so many commercials.  Again I'm not familiar with daytime TV so maybe it's the same with all of the shows.

Yeah Anne and Jake should do a comedy together and give us all the outtakes like "The Trouble with Mary".  They are naturals and it could be very funny.

Quote from: ennisandjack

I agree it was a throw away quip and it came across as a little tacky.

I still think Charlie Rose would do a much better interview with the group, but of course it wouldn't get the audience numbers like Oprah, Leno and Ellen.  At this time the studio marketing department is likely calling the shots now, so it's numbers over substance.  Oprah is definitely postive exposure for the film.

Yeah, their body language said it - shift weight on the couch, cross-uncross legs, fold-unfold hands.  Poor guys - how many times can they answer the same boring questions and make it interesting each time.  Print interviewers may want their deeper thoughts, but humor plays better to a studio audience and they were smart in how they handled it.

Most interviewers are just focusing on the titillating aspect of "man-on-man" action - stupid because other than a kiss, a very dark tent scene and a little cuddling in a motel room, there is nothing.  It's mainly implied in the movie.

Funny I haven't heard any interviewers ask Anne Hathaway what it was like to expose her breasts to Jake in the backseat of the sports car or even the reverse.

does anyone else know that Jake is filming another movie about the Zodiac killer, and the BBM people got him the day off to go do Oprah?  he is sooooooooo busy, yet his stops what he is doing to do these interviews.  he is a real dedicated person.  for these folk, this movie is over.  they moved on with there lives--unlike us....we are all stuck on brokeback mountain.  i like being there.  this WAS just a movie to them, to us it is something way more.  how much do you remember about what you were doing 18 months ago?  understand they are young and 18 months is a lifetime ago to them.

if Heath wins, which he absolutely should, he became a character inside and out that was a written on paper character--not like Capote who could be copied.  Heath created Ennis' persona...if he should win, Jake shoud jump up and plant one big juicy passionate kiss on Heath after Michelle does!!  that would be a riot..and just goof up the haters in America.  And be on every cover of every rag.

Oprah has real power - here in Chicago, she is sort of a goddess.  The very fact that she had the BBM cast on her show will definitely translate into more ticket sales.  I mean, her Book Club picks almost always become best sellers just because Oprah says to read them!

We are doing our part here.  BBM is now showing in 7 venues in the Chicagoland area.  Landmark Century Centre 7 near my home has been showing it on 3 screens sometimes as many as 13 times a day since Dec 16.  They have a HUGE marquee outside which is displaying BBM right in the middle as their showcase feature.  EVERYBODY I know, gay and str8, has seen it at least once.  Chicago is a "blue" city, but it is more conservative than NYC or LA.  Despite that, interest in BMM has definitely expanded beyond the northside Boystown area where success was pretty much a given.

I agree. Whether you like the BBM cast on the show or not, we should be happy to have this coverage for BBM becaue every bit of positive coverage helps.

BBM Family:

I too caught the Oprah segment with the BBM leads.  For those who are NOT familiar with Oprah Winfrey, you must know this woman maintains a level of opinion and influence like no other person in this country.  Her willingness to showcase the film, the actors, and offer some fun conversation with...let's face it--a very young but tremendously gifted acting talent, all of whom will have great futures...speaks volumes about her interest in this film's messages and themes.  While the show didn't really allow much time for some in-depth discussion around the film, just giving the air time on her show will do wonders for keeping momentum and interest flowing among those who would otherwise not go see this classic for the ages.

I was most intrigued with Heath Ledger...he seemed to be the only one who offered any type of depth to answering any of Oprah's questions.  While there was a lot of tongue n' cheek humor around the controversial scenes, I was struck by how Heath was so genuine and authentic in everything he answered and the way he answered.  His comment too about his "two girls" being the pride and joy of his life just spoke to me about how he's in a very great time of his life and that he doesn't, for one moment, take it for granted.  He seems extremely well grounded and does not seem terribly attracted to all of the glamor and hype and buzz that Hollywood will project over its actors.  Even seeing Michelle, someone who appeared rather shy, quiet-spoken, humble and reserved really seemed to be very complementary to Ledger's personality and values.  Mr. Gyllenhaal and Ms. Hathaway's reflections on how Michelle and Heath connected on the BBM set brought us closer to them.

For a 30-minute segment, I was generally pleased with how well the four actors carried it off.  Kudos to Oprah for giving BBM even more well-deserved exposure!!

Rainy today in Texas!

I sure hope so, there are many tech genies on this board so I'm hopeful they'll find it.

A comment on another board made it sound like a very interesting interview:

Quote
But Heath's Charlie Rose appearance bodes well for him down the line. Quite the little intellectual, who knew? So they won't have to feel like they're handing the big award [Oscar] to some shallow prettyboy. And he is hyperactive, ADHD, everything Ennis Del Mar is not--not to mention sounding like a completely different person with the Aussie accent and without the mumble. That will all impress the hell out of The Academy as he makes the rounds during the voting season.

I never bother with Oprah and watching that interview just reminds me of why. And, excuse me, Didn't her Nibs have a lead role in "Colour of Purple" If memory serves the Whoopster' is a tad lesbian in that movie. Methinks her "OH My! Two men kissing" Schick was a tad overwrought.

The Oprah Interveiw was like a public re-hetero-sexualization of Heath and Jack for the benefit of Oprah's bored Housewive fanbase.

I respect the performance the two actors put in to bring their characters to life. Beyond that I don't care what they thought when they were shooting or what they think now. The movie was Ang Lee's creation and HE knew exactly HE was doing.

Time for us to let the actor go on their way and claim the characters as entities beyond their reach now.

Gyllenhaal is real cute at the very end of the show when he says, [to Heath] "Jack Nasty Loves You".  It almost makes the whole thing worth watching.

I was browsing annieproulx.com's forum today where they also comment about the Oprah talk with the BBM cast. There are some  thoughts virtually identical to those that have been shared here, but there's also a lot of people who didn't like it at all.
Interesting, as always is, to see completely opposite points of view.

I quite enjoyed the show, had very clear in my mind what Oprah is in the contemporary North-American culture and still think that listening to her saying great things about the movie was impressing. The only "go see it" caption means a lot.
Totally loved Anne, who happened to be the smartest, coolest person of the party but at the same time said the most interesting things (how the movie has touched so many people's hearts is bigger than any award etc etc). Loved Jake but that's an old story, still have mixed feelings about Heath but that's another story as well. Michelle was sweet when her boy said she's the perfect mum.

Ethan, I guess all boyfriends find Jake G cocky when you are a BBM fan ;)

Oh and my "Jack Nasty Loves You" t-shirt turned out great  ;D

jackofrome, thanks for updating the thoughts. Yeah..interesting statement. Why is that? But that is a topic of its own.

Oprah show, IMHO, is only a marketing tool for BBM and is not meant for PBS. So we need to know who BBM is targeting to - those who have not seen the movie.

I already mention it and will say it again - I love your avatar.  :) Hope it will become a reality when Heath wins the Oscar.

Well I'll go on the record as one of those who, despite liking Gyllenhaal's Jack Nasty Loves You  really did NOT like the whole Oprah Schick AT ALL.  At one point she's says something about "and there wasn't a limp wrist or a lisp in the whole movie".  For that alone she should have been taken back to the Green Room and flogged for the remainder of her show.

Oprah's continued endorsement of James Frey's Million Lies lost her whatever diminished credibility she still had at that point.  She's now too much of an institutions to even get out of the way of her own BS.

So what did everyone think?

Personally, after seeing him today and also on Leno last night, I'm not sure I like Jake's attitude toward the entire film. He sort of has a "Oh yeah, it's a beautiful story but it -is- gay, afterall" perspective. And Heath just seemed sort of noncommital. I realize that they can't put themselves in our place and see the movie from where we saw it, and that a movie is a lot different when you're the person behind the scenes trying to portray it to the world. But it still kind of bugs me out to see it because the actors are so closely wrapped now with my image of Jack and Ennis. I think I'd feel the same way if I saw either of them in another movie. But that's just me.

How about everyone else out there?

Jake does seem to come out the way you describe. I didn't like his interview with Leno either. It makes you think when he said he first heard the movie as gay cowboy and he just didnt want to have anything to do with it. He then said because he was only 16 at that time. Later, he heard that Ang Lee was directing the movie so he came on board. I would hope that his decision was based on the characters and story and how they could inspire him to take on a such role.

You are right. They didn't see the movies from us. Perhaps that explains why this movie is a success because they didn't bear our expections in mind.

I think that Jake on the tonite show was great.  He cannot take himself too seriously, i think he gets his point accross "it is the most beautiful love story i have ever read".  Too me he is very articulate and funny, and adorable.  Heath is very shy physically and emotional, Jake can banter about the "forbidden" subjects without being a turn off to "straight america".  I think he did a great job....

I watched again the show yesterday and was very moved by the words from Heath about Michelle being a good mother and loving deeper his girls every day.  When you look at them looking at each other, you feel the sparkles... Man, they are in love!

I also appreciated Jake's humorous but straight forward answers and quotes.

I also love how Heath said he personally thinks its a shame for people to voice their opinion of disgust to fiercely to two people who love each other.. That wasn't a direct quote but pretty much what he said.. I thought that was nice!

I watched the Oprah interview again and I give it higher marks the second time around.  Oprah's questions were still the usual dumb ones, but the cast handled it so well.  Inspite of the pressure they kept it light especially the Jakester. 

The Gyllenhaal kids (Jake and Maggie) just project confidence - check out their Red Carpet interviews.  I know they're Hollywood babies since their parents were in the business.  But kudos to their parents, it says a lot about how they were brought up.

Maggie Gyllenhaal is a very good actress and deserves higher profile roles.  In "Mona Lisa Smile" Maggie was a very strong character who dominated her scenes.  I'm not a Julia Roberts fan and Kirsten Dunst was ok in the film.   Maggie was also very good in "Happy Endings" a Don Roos film.  Roos makes qirky but fun films - I especially enjoyed his filme "The Opposite of Sex".

My first reaction is "omg I absolutely LOVE it!"  :o

Seriously..I love it. Both Heath and Jake had such thoughtful things to say! The way Heath was commenting about people being disgusted about the way in which two people choose to love, and Jake brought his own life situation into the film, and they had their cranky days, and just...ah, I loved it! I love seeing them, and hearing what they have to say, and seeing Jake.. :D
<3 <3

I can't really see why people mind what Jake said so much. Maybe he didn't say as sensitive things as Heath, and he did joke about it a bit, but not to the point that it ever became too much. In my opinion.

I must say I do feel a little bit...like my bubble has been broken, watching this.  :(  Because when I first saw BBM, the actors became the characters, they WERE Jack and Ennis. But now that I've seen this, I'm afraid that when I next see BBM, I will think of the actors, and Heath and Jake won't BECOME Jack and Ennis again. I fear it won't be believable anymore, watching it again, after having seen the actors on TV and such talking about it and being obviously themselves, and not Jack and Ennis.

Silly, I know... :-[  But nevertheless, it's got me worried now.  :(

The Heath and Michelle thing was sweet...he reminded me of Ennis when he said he loves both his girls!  ;D

And I can't believe the first scene they taped was the reunion kiss where Alma finds out about Jack and Ennis! Imagine doing that scene first! HOW did Jake and Heath do that with such feeling, as if they hadn't seen each other in ages, even though it was the first kiss in reality? WOW. Talk about talent!  :)

I love the way Jake talks about how proud they are of the movie, and how they'll do anything for it, and etc....so sweet.

I laughed a ton when Jake said, "I'll be up there saying 'Jack Nasty loves you'"!  ;D  Yay!

If you look at Krispera's screen caps from the Oprah show it is obvious that:

Heath is very shy (he holds his hand to his face when answering questions)
Heath has his leg crossed towards Jake, not towards Michelle
Heath and Jake have matching body language (hand clasped)... not sure what it all means other than jake and heath got on well but worth noting!

It means that they are comfortable with eachothers, and seek help or comfort. Mirror image is very common from actors doing interviews together, the fact that they "lived" and "worked" together for weeks helped them connect, and also one cannot help copying body language after a while.
We do it to adapt or make sure the others respond to us.
But if you have seen the interview, you will see how many times Heath touches Michelle, gets her to come closer...before she came on stage, he was using Jake as his protector in a way, and as soon as Michelle comes on, Heath starts protecting her. They are really in love too...bugger!

Sorry!  I downloaded it to my PC weeks ago.  I cannot recall from where, I searched, no results.   Zipping the file I have doesn't make the job in an Email, I tried before.

I share your pain!

boo-boo - this link is still working, and there's links to the Charlie Rose show and loads of other interviews that Heath did too

http://www.heathledgercentral.com/brokebackmountainvideolist.html

I thought the Oprah show was pretty good, actually. The boys were very cute (well, obviously ;D) and they did pretty well to answer the same old questions without seeming too bored. My favourite bits, apart from "Jack Nasty loves you" (god, I wish we'd had the chance to see that at the Oscars...) were when Heath said that he falls deeper in love with both his girls (awwwww, soooo sweet) and when Jake explained how Heath and Michelle got together - "we made out, and they had a baby"! Too cute.

I also loved when Jake was talking about practising kissing scenes on his hand - and Heath asked him if he'd drawn stubble on his hand ;D

I just rewatched the Oprah interview again and I wanted to know what Heath says right after Jake said "Especially the stuff that we do" (after Heath said that they needed to expose themselves and be vulnerable.. (that's bout 2 or 3 minutes into the interview)

Also I've wondered if there's a transcript of that show around since i'm not a native speaker and they sometimes tend to mumble a bit

Thanks a lot!!!!

Try this link, it's not the full script of the interview but a large part of it.  The link leads you to the first page, there are 11 of them:

 Hi everyone,

 I got to see the movie and become a fan quite belatedly, and hence accordingly I found out and read about the cast's interview on Oprah after all sites which included the segment had removed it (as in youtube, which has brought it down, obviously after Oprah's lawyers intervened). Is there a way in which I can get the clip from someone who has downloaded and stored it and still has it? Please, if someone can and is willing to do it, get back to me, cause I really wanna see this interview -from all I've seen it is the only one where all four leading actors appear together..

 Any feedback is much appreciated  ^f^

I would love to see this too.  Unfortunately, all of the links that are posted here are no longer good.  If someone could post an updated link, I would be the happiest cowgirl on Earth!  I really want to see/hear the infamous "Jack Nasty loves you!"   ;D

I think Heath giggled a little and said "expose". I'm not a native English speaker too but that's what it sounded like to me.

The Oprah interview is available to download on iheartjake.com, just click on media and then talk shows, and it's the second one from bottom :)
