Description:
Starring Oscar® winner Jamie Foxx and Jake Gyllenhaal, and directed by Oscar® winner Sam Mendes, Jarhead is an irreverent and edgy look at modern warfare from a soldier's point of view.
Adapted from Anthony Swofford's best-selling memoir by Academy Award®-winning screenwriter and ex-Marine pilot William Broyles, Jr., Jarhead is a highly relevant, and confronting tale that brings the gut-wrenching and frightening emotional experiences of war to the forefront.
The film follows "Swoff" ( Jake Gyllenhaal), a naïve young recruit and his platoon mates from the intensity and camaraderie of boot camp to being shipped to a lonely outpost in a surreal desert setting.
Jarhead delivers a militantly apolitical story of hope, frustration, bonding and survival, loaded with first-rate performances from a stellar cast including Peter Sarsgaard and Chris Cooper.
