Critics these days don't have a lot of integrity. They work for corporations and are afraid for their jobs. A local media person described Jake's performance in NC recently as "hokie" and didn't rate it very high at all. He said the movie was corny and fake. Overly, melodramatic, and <b>insincerely emotional</b>. De Niro's performance in Taxi Driver was riveting and nuanced.

I don't know or care anything about their personal lives is the point.</i><br /><br />This doesn't apply to me, I know that much. Of course, Robert DeNiro is in a class along with others that Jake has not reached yet no matter how many tweets his people plant on Twitter telling everyone that his acting is like DeNiro's. You wouldn't believe how many tweets there were in the weeks leading up to and still out there which were comparing Jake to DeNiro and Nightcrawler as his Taxi Driver. <br /><br />But my point is that personal lives do come along with the occupation of professional actor. That's just the way it is - and public exposure/scrutiny comes with that territory. And they especially come with the territory when the said actor uses rag magazines, Facebook, Tumblr and Twitter to push their PR generated fauxmances into the public's face.<br /><br />Sorry, but you're going to live and die by the sword by which you swung. It's not a one-way road. And celebrities like Beyonce who faked a pregnancy to the public, Mel Gibson who hid very strong bigotries, and Chris Brown who bashed his girlfriend's head into the car dashboard?<br /><br />I can't just put those things out of my head when I hear their music or see an advertisement on TV. I don't want to buy a song from a man who physically beats on his girlfriends. It's my prerogative. And unfortunately now, when I see Jake, all I see is someone who really doesn't care for his fans until it's time to sell them his movies and also someone who OTT hides his secret life by bearding and telling any journalist with a voice recorder or pen & steno pad that he isn't a father yet, when he knows and we know he darned well is.<br /><br />Can't seem to get that out of my head so I'm afraid I'm not so easily clouded. prairiegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04669415015184105792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4420911995963030061.post-79715256056724610122014-11-06T07:07:58.886-05:002014-11-06T07:07:58.886-05:00Jake's going to be on Morning Joe this mornin...Jake's going to be on Morning Joe this morning.MSNBCnoreply@blogger.com
