Sundance premiere: Is Joseph Gordon-Levitt the new Sundance kid?
Scarlett Johansson plays Gordon-Levitt’s romantic interest. Johansson, who is performing on Broadway, wasn’t in attendance at the premiere.
Before he spoke with The Tribune, Gordon-Levitt offered some advice to two students from the Park City High School film studies class promoting his own collaborative production company and website (www.hitrecord.org).
"HitRecord! Make shit. That’s my advice. Don’t wait for somebody else to tell you that you can. Don’t wait for somebody to hire you. Don’t wait for an agent, you don’t have to move to LA, f--k all that."
A Sundance regular, Gordon-Levitt was especially enthusiastic about this year’s trip to Park City. Before the screening, he chose to stick to the script when answering questions. When asked if he felt that pornography addiction was a real problem or a copout that justified indulgence, Gordon-Levitt talked about why he made the film.
"I just wanted to tell a story about how people objectify each other and I wanted to tell a love story ultimately, and to me, that’s what always gets in the way of love is people putting these expectations on each other," he said. "My character in the movie watches a lot of porn, Scarlett’s character in the movie watches a lot of romantic Hollywood movies and they both are sort of missing each other.
"They think they’re in love —but are they really? Or are they just comparing their relationship to something they saw in a movie or in a porn video? I find all that stuff hilarious so I wrote a comedy about it," Gordon-Levitt said.
Recent Golden Globe winner Julianne Moore said she was drawn to the film based on the writing. "It was a movie that’s very surprising, certainly comedic, but then it ends up being much more, and also I was very touched by it. I turned to my husband; I read it on the plane, and I said, ‘Oh this is lovely.’"
Tony Danza’s favorite part about the movie was "being in it." He also enjoyed reunited with Gordon-Levitt, whom he worked with 20 years ago on "Angels in the Outfield."

Don Jon's Addiction finds several distributors
Now that it’s finally official: Here are a few more details on the distribution deals for DJA. Relativity Media picked up the distribution rights for the US. According to Deadline it was one of the biggest deals coming out of Sundance, which can be explained by Relativity investing in a long term partnership with Joe. But more importantly they are planning a wide release this year, although there are conflicting reports whether it will be a summer release or not. Joe says this about the deal:
The film was also picked up by distributors for the UK and France, so you can look forward to seeing the movie in theaters too.
Germany and Russia already have official release dates (September 19 for Russia and October 10 in Germany).
