Joseph Gordon-Levitt

It’s so rare for a film to honestly evoke or replicate the experience of falling in love and even more unusual for it to chronicle, heartbreakingly, what happens if that relationship goes awry. Delightfully, (500) Days of Summer is one of those extraordinarily uncommon gems.

From the beginning, the film explains it is not a love story, “it’s a story about love,” one the promises to enrapture audiences and I’d be willing to bet picks up one of those spiffy new Top Ten Best Picture Oscar nods during award season.

We love us some JGL and have been following his website, Hitrecord.org, for some time now.

Yesterday he put up a personal message, almost a press release, about his new film, Hesher, which he’ll shoot before starring in the next film from Christopher Nolan (Memento, The Dark Knight).

He writes:

We just returned home to LA to find a stack of mail, a DVR busting at the seams and a fridge so pathetically empty, we might have to eat baking soda for breakfast.

Our time in Sundance has come to an end, snowy summer camp is over and we’re already feeling the withdrawal.

There is a certain pulsating mania in Sundance that is magical. Five films a day, meals consisting of sugarfree Red Bull and Krispy Kremes, bathroom celebrity sighting and weather so cold it makes your jaw numb and your teeth hurt had become the norm for us.

Uh ohhh.

Just as we were starting to fall head over heels for our man JGL, he cheats on us.

Yesterday Joseph was seen walking around Park City with this chick on his arm.

We’d love to write it off as a one-time dalliance but we saw the two of them together on Tuesday night as well at the Short Film Awards. We recognize those boots and the way she clings to his arm.

Why, Joe? Why?

Do you hear that sound? It’s the pieces of our shattered heart raining down onto the floor.

It’s so rare for a film to truly evoke or replicate the experience of falling in love and then, heartbreakingly, what happens when that love goes awry.

Delightfully, 500 Days of Summer is one of those extraordinarily uncommon gems.

Mine?

JGL was spotted on Main Street in Park City yesterday afternoon where he and Zooey Deschanel were promoting their fantastic new film 500 Days of Summer.

How hot is his scruffy beard?

We heart JGL!

Earlier in the week we noticed that the A-list celebrity factor at this year's Sundance Film Festival seemed to be somewhat lacking. Our guess is everyone is flocking to Washington D.C. to witness Tuesday's historic inauguration of Barack Obama, but that doesn't mean Sundance is star-free.

And where's the best place to see stars?

Gift suites!

After our afternoon spent witnessing the jousting of Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Michael Cera, we hit Main Street to see what Park City is all about.

On our way in for dinner at Bistro 412, we passed one of the largest men we’d ever seen wearing a sheepskin hat. Seriously, the guy was gigantor. We were so dumbstruck but his massiveness, we almost didn’t notice it was John Cleese, comic genius.
