“The Day After” is broadcast this evening on TF1. When you (re)discover Roland Emmerich's famous disaster film, we recommend that you pay close attention to the label that Jake Gyllenhaal wears in this scene.

A small, subtle and discreet detail which directly refers to the famous Jedi master from the Star Wars saga, and which allows us to guess a certain condescension of the young man in relation to his little comrades, as he insinuates elsewhere. spoken in the same scene:
“This sideboard is retro… It would almost be cool if it was done on purpose.”
