After all, with over 26,000 reviews to my credit, there does often seem to be a sameness to a lot of films. These are NOT typical Hollywood releases and almost defy description.which I appreciate. If you don't believe this, consider SOURCE CODE, NIGHTCRAWLER and BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. I love how this actor takes risks and plays the most unusual actors. This actually is why I sought out this film. Like so much of Jake Gyllenhaal's work, this film is incredibly strange and hard to predict. And, you start to realize that both of them are damaged souls.as is her very odd son. Out of the blue, she calls him and they form a friendship.a very tentative and strange friendship. During the course of this strange nervous breakdown, his letters have an impact on the customer service rep who has been receiving them. This does not mean he doesn't think about his wife.but when he does, it's in a very disconnected and strangely analytical fashion. A few of his quirks include taking apart machines around the home and office.just to see how they work as well as sending a string of long meandering letters to a vending machine company.because he lost $1.50 in one of their machines! He obviously is compartmentalizing.in other words, locking away his feelings and closing the door on them in his mind.
Instead of focusing on his feelings, Davis is mechanical in how he looks at things.analyzing and thinking with zero emotion. How Davis responds to her death is really strange.though not completely hard to believe. Their conversation seems mundane.when suddenly there's an accident and she's killed. As the film begins, Davis (Jake Gyllenhaal) and his wife are in the car and she's driving.
