We've got what's probably more than our fair share, of really sweet looking images from the cooler-looking-by-the-minute Desert Storm movie Jarhead for you. It opens this fall on November 4 to contend for Oscars, but you can see Jake Gyllenhaal wearing a Santa hat in our images gallery or with one of the trailer links below.
What's it about? Here's a plot synopsis solider boy: "Jarhead (the self imposed moniker of the Marines) follows “Swoff” (Gyllenhaal), a third-generation enlistee, from a sobering stint in boot camp to active duty, sporting a sniper’s rifle and a hundred-pound ruck on his back through Middle East deserts with no cover from intolerable heat or from Iraqi soliders, always potentially over the next horizon. Swoff and his fellow Marines sustain themselves with sardonic humanity and wicked comedy on blazing desert fields in a country they don’t understand, against an enemy they can’t see, for a cause they don’t fully fathom."
