We have a look at the latest UK quad design for the film currently impressing audiences in the US. DON JON is the multi-talented Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s writing and directorial debut, with the in-demand actor also leading as the shallow-yet-likable New York City hunk, Jon Martello. He’s ladies man and gym obsessive who’s about to find his world shaken to the core after falling for the girl of his dreams, played by Scarlett Johansson. However, will that stop his love of porn?
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, beautiful, good old-fashioned girl. Raised on romantic Hollywood movies, she’s determined to find her Prince Charming and ride off into the sunset. Wrestling with good old-fashioned expectations of the opposite sex, Jon and Barbara struggle against a media culture full of false fantasies to try and find true intimacy in this unexpected comedy written and directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt.
We’ve also included the latest German one-sheet.
DON JON co-stars Julianne Moore, Tony Danza, Brie Larson, Glenne Headly and Rob Brown. It’s out now in the US and in the UK on 15th November.
Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
