Anne Hathaway And Jake Gyllenhaal

Anne Hathaway And Jake Gyllenhaal - Anne Hathaway vividly recalls the first time she made out with Jake Gyllenhaal: It was on the set of 2005's "Brokeback Mountain," in which the actress played the neglected wife of Gyllenhaal's smitten gay cowboy, and they were filming a steamy tryst in the back of a car.


"Jake had touched me everywhere except my boob," says Hathaway, patting her chest as the pair sits together to discuss their new film, the romantic dramedy "Love & Other Drugs," which opened Wednesday. "We did it very methodically: I would cover. They'd bring me a towel. I'd get out of the car, go behind a screen and get redressed. All of a sudden, I hear a throat clear from behind the screen. It's Jake. 'Ah, Annie, so the thing is, in this scene, if it was really you and me in the car, I just think that, you know, ah, can I touch your boob?' "

"And ... I don't think you asked me this time," says Hathaway, turning to her screen partner to tease him about his behavior during the many love scenes they shot for their new project.

"I already asked. Your offer was still good," Gyllenhaal says with a shrug.

It's difficult to watch "Love & Other Drugs," a film about a young couple struggling to build a relationship in the mid-1990s, without being struck by the number of times Hathaway, 28, and Gyllenhaal, 29, are called upon to bare it all for the cameras. It's just not that often that you see two Oscar-nominated actors strip for sex scenes in a mainstream studio movie.

But the nudity, they insist, was never intended to be cheap or exploitative, though the movie's poster captures the actors in playful buff repose. Instead, it was a purposeful effort on the part of the actors and cowriter-director Ed Zwick to go beyond romantic comedy conventions and authentically depict every aspect of young love.

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone

Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone - Police say a man on a Southwest Airlines flight from Las Vegas punched a teenager who refused to turn off his iPhone as the plane approached the Boise airport. Officers arrested 68-year-old Russell E. Miller, of Boise, on suspicion of misdemeanor battery Tuesday. He has been released from jail on bond. Witnesses told police the 15-year-old was playing games and listening to music on his cell phone when flight attendants instructed passengers to turn off their electronic devices because the plane was landing. Witnesses told police that when the teen didn't respond, Miller got angry and punched the boy in the arm. Miller says he "tapped" the teen on the shoulder after he refused to turn off the phone. He told the Idaho Statesman that he may have "overreacted," but that he did not punch the teen. Man Hits Teen on Plane Over iPhone
