I was surprised how much I like Ms. Gyllenhaal's performances in films such as "Stranger Than Fiction" and "Donnie Darko." Not at all the face that comes to mind when I think of a beautiful or talented actress. Yet, in her own way, Maggie Gyllenhaal has both. I enjoy her off-beat characters and look forward to seeing her in "The Dark Knight." Well wishes for her and her career.
