 Overview |
Oscar® winner* JAMIE FOXX (Collateral, Ali) and JAKE GYLLENHAAL (The Day After Tomorrow, Donnie Darko) star in this critically acclaimed portrayal of a group of young "Jarheads" during the explosive days of the Gulf War. From the Academy Award®-winning director** of American Beauty, Jarhead is a powerful story, told with painful honesty and irreverence, with spectacular cinematography.
JARHEAD follows 'Swoff' (Gyllenhaal) from a sobering stint in boot camp to active duty, sporting a sniper's rifle through Middle East deserts with no cover from intolerable heat or from Iraqi soldiers. Swoff and his fellow Marines, who have been trained to kill, find themselves in a brutal situation, fighting a war they don't understand for a cause they don't fully grasp.
* JAMIE FOXX - Actor in a leading Role, Ray (2004). ** SAM MENDES - Directing, American Beauty (1999). |
