DON JON GETS A TRAILER


Is it just me or did that feel like it went on for days? I think there's a half-decent drama in here, but that's already been done in Shame. Joseph Gordon-Levitt thought he'd cast himself in the role of super-hunky babe-magnet 'Don Jon', a part he wrote for himself and then directed himself in. K fine, we get it, you're hot, now what? He's kindly censored the film for us poor uncultured audiences after personal fears that it mightn't get past the MPAA without an NC-17. If there's one thing I hate more than state censorship, it's self-censorship in the fear of state censorship (it's not exactly state censorship, but you get what I mean). This will be an October release in the US, November in the UK.

  1. The above writing is one of many reasons, am your fan. The only thing that came to my mind after watching trailer as previously mentioned was just great. You do have valid point. Got to give it to you.

  2. First clip from the Cannes well-received J.C.Chandor's All is Lost - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9_rYcgswnM.
    If we have to choose a first clip from his debut feature, there would be at least half a dozen people getting fired with a dozen of 50 words just bouncing of my head by this time. Really amazed at the 180 degree change of range, Chandor has instigated for his sophomore feature.
