And something about this movie just feels like it's designed to give people exactly what they've come to expect and want from working-class italian characters -- some sort of imagined "realness," no-bullshit attitude, familial warmth, etc. It's like this is becoming the new version of the quaint irish village with silly old men movie.

Rene Rodriguez's weekend feature:
For his 21st birthday, actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt bought himself a copy of Final Cut Pro, the revolutionary software that allowed anyone with a digital camera and a bit of computer savvy to turn their home movies into polished films.
“I’ve probably made hundreds of little videos since then,” says the actor, now 32. “I would shoot little movies with me in them, put them on my computer, edit them and put music to them. I was just doing it for myself, and I had so much fun. But I also learned a lot. If it hadn’t been for all of those videos, I wouldn’t have been able to make Don Jon the way I did.”
One of the most impressive things about Don Jon, the first feature film Gordon-Levitt wrote and directed, is how stylistically ambitious it is. The ingenious editing, sound effects, music and camera placements fly against the traditional emphasis on performance most actors-turned-directors use their first time out. The success of Don Jon, which opens Friday, ultimately rests on the strengths of its cast, but the movie also has the craft and technique of a veteran filmmaker’s work.
Most importantly, Gordon-Levitt uses all the toys in his tool chest not to show off, but to underscore the emotional journey of Jon, an online-porn addict and gym rat who tries to go clean after he meets Barbara (Scarlett Johansson), a beautiful young woman whose idea of true love is defined by Titanic and film adaptations of Nicholas Sparks novels.
“Style is not about having cool shots,” he says. “It’s about drawing the audience closer to the story you’re telling and accentuating the evolution of your characters. That to me is the mark of a good filmmaker.”

saw this yesterday. its basically JGL saying 'porn is bad!' and 'technology is bad! have you noticed?!' for an hour and a half. but i liked it.
i found it a little grating that its so obvious what its doing all the time. this is a film with net to no subtext - the subtlety is sledgehammer-like. i found it weird that for a film objecting to overt female sexualisation, its constantly poring over scarlet johannsen's body.
also found its obvious appeal to 'the man on the street' a little too obvious (though OTOH, average working class families dont appear much in modern hollywood anymore, unless we're talking the poorer sister in blue jasmine, which is a parallel for the family in don jon for being seemingly conjured up from watching a dozen 80s/90s italian-american-centred movies).
the whole film seemed to want to say (and JGL's character actually did say this at one point) 'hey porn isnt just for ugly dweebs' as if to hammer home its point that porn is hurting everyone but its a tad hard to have sympathy for someone whos going home with attractive women every day of the week. this was basically like shame or that other recent sex addiction movie with gwyneth paltrow - it wants to explore something sexually thorny and problematic but doesnt really want to explore it at anything other than a pretty comfortable level. still, i give it some credit for trying.
― StillAdvance, Friday, 20 December 2013 17:13 (ten years ago) link
that said, i did like that SJ's character was so anti-porn. made a difference from it being casualised, even if her character was the 'beautiful woman' sterotype: sexually conservative/a bitch/unwilling to bend/narcissistic.
― StillAdvance, Friday, 20 December 2013 17:15 (ten years ago) link
not read the whole thread so i might be rehashing but tbh, i think i would have liked the depiction of working class italians more if it didnt seem like the film wanted to show how dumb/cruel/superficial that kind of family can be while using them to appeal to everyone and show porn addiction isnt just some rich guy problem.

Actors who direct get more praise than they deserve because they know what a camera is and how to look good in front of it.
I wanted to like it, and ScarJo finally looks alive on screen, and it'ss 90 minutes, but it devolves into a familiar Hollywood yarn about A Man Who Can’t Love. "Why watch porn when you can have the real thing?" "What can you get from porn that you don’t get from sex?”

you have never heard of girl weekends, where they watch 3 or 4 in a row. ;) (ok maybe they'll just watch a zillion episodes of Girls... or Friends.)
i thought Julianne Moore was funny on a meta-level (Boogie Nights, and more specifically The Kids Are Alright)like she's the old woman who knows about TRUE SEXi kinda disliked she had this trauma though. also no one is truely communicating, and there are not enough snappy dialogues. (maybe, none)

Thought this was all over the map - apparently the entire plot takes place in the final 15 minutes. Also, inverting the Manic Pixie Dream Girl trope to a Manic Damaged Dream Older Woman trope is still a trope.

This had its charms but I won't defend anything people have criticized up thread. StillAdvance wrote, for a film objecting to overt female sexualisation, its constantly poring over scarlet johannsen's body
I think this was an intentional and rather subtle way to connect her to...let's call it the porn-industrial-complex...that self-serving "one-sided" or instrumentalist view of relationships (porn vs romance movies and both against "real" intimacy). what's interesting about all that is that it suggests that porn is simply the logical end point of her worldview and even the (supplemental, excluded) thing that made him seem like the perfect guy! so long as he kept it hidden.

Finally watched this. Far more enjoyable (and less homophobic) than Shame, but much of this ground was already covered in a far more probing and challenging (and less cutesy) manner 40 years prior in Carnal Knowledge.
It was fun to see Tony Danza and Glenne Headly again, though. And JGL clearly devoted a lot of time towards developing a gym bod for this film, as he never missed an opportunity to show it off (not a complaint).
