Great First Trailer for Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Don Jon
6 hours ago | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
The first trailer for Joseph Gordon-Levitt's new film project Don Jon is available for you to watch, and it's pretty great. So if you like what you've seen and heard about the movie so far, this is your chance to get a real taste of what's in store for you.
This was the first film that Gordon-Levitt wrote and directed, and he did a fantastic job. I thought the movie was extremely well made, entertaining, and it also has a message. You can read our review of the film here, and watch our video review here.
Jon Martello (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is a strong, handsome, good old-fashioned guy. His buddies call him Don Jon due to his ability to “pull” a different woman every weekend, but even the finest fling doesn’t compare to the bliss he finds alone in front of the computer watching pornography. Barbara Sugarman (Scarlett Johansson) is a bright, »

Apres Cannes, a Retreat From the Madness
11 May 2013 3:00 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
The Cannes Film Festival has always been the place to see and be seen. But after spending a week or more running between the jam-packed Croisette Palaces and red-carpet events, film execs and talent often wind up yearning for tranquility, privacy or even just an opportunity to venture beyond Rue d’Antibes.
Luckily, the French Riviera abounds in luxurious properties for every taste and need — from five-star farmhouses to 60-meter yachts and architectural villas overlooking the Mediterranean.
Once a confidential haven for the likes of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway, the Hotel Du Cap-Eden-Roc located in Antibes, about an hour from Cannes, has been transformed into a hotspot for the jet set. Today, the hotel, built in 1870 as a private mansion, has become as legendary as the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles or the Majestic in Cannes, hosting such red-carpet events as the amfAR dinner.

Tony Awards 2013: Stage-Movie connection ranges from Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Kinky Boots to Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (photo: Emilia Clarke, Cory Michael Smith in Breakfast at Tiffany’s) [See previous post: "Tony Awards 2013 Nominations: Tom Hanks, Sigourney Weaver Among Potential Contenders."] Edward Albee’s Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, possibly up for a 2013 Tony Award in the Best Revival of a Play category, was made into an Academy Award-nominated movie in 1966. Mike Nichols directed Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor, George Segal, and Sandy Dennis, from a screenplay by Ernest Lehman. Taylor and Dennis won Oscars as, respectively, Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress. In this latest Broadway revival of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, the stars are Tracy Letts, Amy Morton, Madison Dirks and Carrie Coon. Peter Masterson’s 1985 film version of Horton Foote’s The Trip to Bountiful, another possible Best Revival nominee, earned Geraldine Page a Best Actress Academy »

‘The Big Sleep’ is saved from the depths of incomprehension by Bogart and Bacall

U.S.A., 1946
There are, arguably, two minds when it comes to intricately plotted, complex mystery stories. There may exist other, more nuanced opinions, but it feels safe to assume that most people fall into one of the following categories. First, there are those who simply do not have or, quite frankly, want to award said story their time and patience. Too many names, too many different subplots, made up alibis and in the end it often seems like much ado about, well, not a whole lot.

How Many of the Movies from Roger Ebert's List of Great Movies Have You Seen?
10 April 2013 4:28 PM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »
I've mentioned before how several years ago I created a list using Roger Ebert's Great Movies, Oscar Best Picture winners, IMDb's Top 250, etc. and began going through them doing my best to see as many of the films on these lists that I had not seen as I possibly could to up my film I.Q. Well, someone has gone through the exhaustive effort to take all of the films Roger Ebert wrote about in his three "Great Movies" books, all of which are compiled on his website and added them to a Letterbxd list and I've added that list below. I'm not positive every movie on his list is here, but by my count there are 363 different titles listed (more if you count the trilogies, the Up docs and Decalogue) and of those 363, I have personally seen 229 and have added an * next to those I've seen. Clearly I have some work to do, »

First Time Fest – Report #2
16 March 2013 4:57 AM, PDT | Blogomatic3000 | See recent Blogomatic3000 news »
The First Time Fest was created by Johanna Bennett and Mandy Ward as a way to showcase new upcoming filmmakers and their works, and to get them a head start in their industry. The festival occurred on March 1st to 4th at The Players Club in New York, which was a club started by some well-known writers and actors, including Edwin Booth (John Wilkes Booth’s brother), Mark Twain, and more.
While the festival does support new filmmakers in their journey, it also awards previous filmmakers who have made names for themselves. Being that this is the first year of the festival, the first ever John Huston Award for Outstanding Achievement in Cinema went to Darren Aronofsky. The award is named in honor of John Huston as he was a esteemed member of The Players Club, as well as considered to be one of the most influential writer, actor, director and producers of all times. »

Joseph Gordon Levitt’s Don Jon’s Addiction title changes to ‘Don Jon’ + New Images
12 March 2013 4:00 AM, PDT | HeyUGuys.co.uk | See recent HeyUGuys news »
Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s directorial debut, Don Jon’s Addiction, premiered at Sundance at the start of the year to very promising early reviews. It was already one of my most anticipated films of the year, and its reception out in Park City only furthered that anticipation.
Taking to Facebook, Gordon-Levitt has announced that his feature debut behind the camera has undergone a slight title change, and will now simply be Don Jon. He gives a strong reasoning behind it to back it up, and whilst I really liked the original title, I can definitely see why the change is a good decision if people have been misinterpreting what it’s about before even watching it.
“Hey everybody,
So, as you might’ve heard already, I wrote and directed a movie last year, and it’s coming out later this year. Which is absolutely crazy, and I still kinda can’t believe it. »

First Time Fest Diary - A Juror's Look From The Inside Out
9 March 2013 1:05 PM, PST | eyeforfilm.co.uk | See recent eyeforfilm.co.uk news »
First Time Fest is more than an awards show. Filmmakers and attendees had a chance to learn how to get on and off the "hot-seat", be exposed by a critical eye, and hear experienced professionals discuss their work in an open and forthcoming way. All of this and more, over four days and nights, made the first week in March in New York an exciting time of the year for film enthusiasts.
The list of distinguished filmmakers who showed up for the First Exposure series to present their first films and do Q&As was impressive. Sofia Coppola, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Barbara Kopple, Todd Solondz, were among them. John Huston's first film, The Maltese Falcon, was introduced by William Luhr, author of The Maltese Falcon: John Huston, Director. Darren Aronofsky not only presented his first film Pi, Martin Scorsese presented him with the John Huston Award for Achievement in. »

Joseph Gordon-Levitt drops the Addiction from Don Jon

2012 was certainly a good year for Joseph Gordon-Levitt; in addition to his roles in The Dark Knight Rises and Looper, he also wrote and directed his first feature Don Jon's Addiction, which is now going by the name of Don Jon. Here's Jgl to explain why:

I decided to change it, first of all, because Don Jon is just so short and simple, and if you know me, you know I'm a fan of brevity.

9 March 2013 7:55 AM, PST | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
Don Jon’s Addiction, Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s directorial debut that premiered earlier this year at Sundance, is no more. Or at least the title is no more.
The actor took to his Facebook page Friday to announce that he is shortening the title to Don Jon.
Gordon-Levitt wrote that he’s changing the title firstly because Don Jon is “just so short and simple” and secondly because he felt the former title was creating unwanted misconceptions about the film. Read more of what he told his Facebook fans below:

Joseph Gordon-Levitt had one of his greatest years in 2012 after his involvement in Looper and The Dark Knight Rises and working on his directional debut Don Jon, which he also wrote and stars. Previously known as Don Jon’S Addiction, Jgl has announced he’s dropping the “addiction” stating:

Second of all, it felt to me like the old title, “Don Jon’s Addiction” was throwing some people off a bit from the point of the movie. People were assuming it was a film about porn addiction and sex addiction, which really isn’t true. That’d be sort of like saying “The Maltese Falcon” is a movie about a statue of a falcon.

Relativity has given Joseph Gordon-Levitt's feature directorial debut "Don Jon’s Addiction" a title change.
