Joseph Gordon-Levitt is one of the more interesting actors of his generation, which is something I never woulda figured from his early showings in Third Rock from the Sun or his role in 10 Things I Hate About You. Then came along Brick, which was basically my favorite film of 2005 (nevermind that Batman Begins also came out that year; Nolan’s take on the Bat was exemplary, but I really enjoyed High School Noir more).
Then there’s this little bit sometime in 2007 where JGL goes on to put the paparazzi on camera.
Toss in his work on the Lookout, Stop Loss, 500 Days of Summer, and Inception, and basically, it’s a list that shows that he choses his roles with care. That, plus the sheer entertainment value of these trailers make them a priority for my votes on the Tuesday Night Movie Club.
