An Overlooked Jake Gyllenhaal Movie?
I’d certainly never heard of it, and it was directed by David O. Russell. Screen Daily‘s Ian Sandwell is reporting about a deal signed by the London-based Arrow Films to distribute Russell‘s never-finished, long-shelved “Nailed” under a new title — “Politics of Love” — sometime next year. The dark Washington D.C.-based dramedy stars Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal (pictured), as well as Tracy Morgan, Catherine Keener, Paul Reubens, Josh Brolin, Kirstie Alley and James Marsden. It’s about a waitress (Biel) who gets accidentally shot in the head with a nail, which leads to unbridled sexual behavior and a weird relationship with a Congressman (Gyllenhaal). Pic will pop in England sometime next spring or summer or whenever. Which means, of course, that sooner or later it’ll stream in the States.
