Highway
(Former titles include: "A Leonard Cohen Afterworld," "Afterworld," and "Trip.")

In this movie, also starring Jared Leto and [Jake's good friend] Selma Blair, Jake plays "the best friend," but still steals the show. It is the story of Jack, (Leto) who has an affair with the married woman who's pool he cleans. (See pic at bottom.) When her husband finds out, he grabs his best friend Pilot (that's Jake!) and they head out for Seattle, where there is a vigil for the recently deceased Kurt Cobain. On the way they pick up former prostitute Cassie,(Blair) and make a stop at a roadside attraction featuring an "alligator boy," whom Pilot feels a connection with. The story is pretty wacky, but in the best of ways. A must-see for any fan. :-)
