What Is the Best Little-Movie-That-Could of 2009?

BuzzSugar — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 06:00:00 PST

Everyone loves an underdog, and 2009 seemed to be the year for them. Several movies with lesser-known stars and/or low budgets held their own against their Goliath-sized counterparts, winning the hearts of fans and critics alike. Time will only tell if they can pull off a dark horse upset in awards season, but I'm willing to wager that a couple of these will at least earn mentions. Tell me, which is your favorite?

Joseph Gordon-Levitt - Love Him or Leave Him?

BuzzSugar — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 16:30:30 PDT

Ever since 500 Days of Summer, I haven't been able to get Joseph Gordon-Levitt off my brain. (And yesterday's trailer for Women in Trouble doesn't help!) It's not like I didn't pay attention to him before - I loved 10 Things I Hate About You - but my adoration for this guy is ballooning faster than his career.

Gordon-Levitt has loads of projects coming down the pipeline: his upcoming film Uncertainty just got picked up, and he has Inception with Leonardo DiCaprio and Hesher with Natalie Portman both slated for release next year. Sure, he's kind of an indie guy, but I'd love to see him come into his own as a leading man. (Perhaps he'll even take on the Jack Ryan series someday?)

All right, so I've gushed enough, but am I alone in my crush? Do you see the JGL appeal that I'm talking about, or is he still just the geeky guy from 3rd Rock From the Sun? What do you think of Joseph Gordon-Levitt - love him or leave him?

ABC Brings TV Show From the Writers of (500) Days of Summer

BuzzSugar — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 10:30:26 PDT

What if the Friends loft and Central Perk were infiltrated by hipsters? We might find out soon, because ABC has just struck a deal to make a sitcom called Friends With Benefits from the writers of this Summer's indie rom-com (500) Days of Summer.

Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber have been given the green light to bring their show to TV, saying, "It's about a group of twenty-somethings at a point in their lives that everyone can relate to, when they ask questions like: 'Is this your girlfriend or someone you just hang out with? Is this a job, or is this a career?'"

It's a familiar concept, but a pretty timeless one - relationships can always be mined for fodder, and when you add young, good-looking actors, you have a recipe for potential success. It's not a far cry from (500) Days, which finds a new way to detail what happens when boy meets girl. I thought the movie was sweet despite its too-hip leanings, so I'd probably watch this. Oh, and the Wedding Crashers director is attached to shoot the pilot. Intrigued yet?

Cool Idea: Chalk Headboard in 500 Days of Summer

CasaSugar — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 15:00:11 PDT

As I've mentioned before, 500 Days of Summer is full of design eye candy. One of my favorite décor ideas siphoned from the film is Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character's chalkboard wall headboard. Chalkboard paint, as you know, is quite trendy these days in the interior design world. But being the skilled architect that he is, Tom Hansen (Gordon-Levitt) took it to the next level, drawing a simple, Mission-style headboard, complete with shading and all. The idea is similar to the trompe l'œil headboard I painted on my own wall, but chalk offers the flexibility to erase and start over. Are you a fan of the chalkboard wall in the movie?

Music Video: Zooey and Joseph Charm Us With More Dance

BuzzSugar — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 10:30:19 PDT

There's some music and dancing in their current indie romance, (500) Days of Summer, but Zooey Deschanel, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and the movie's director, Marc Webb, aren't stopping there. They've put together a little music video to Deschanel's own "Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?" which she made with M. Ward as the musical duo She & Him. As you might expect from the adorable Deschanel/Gordon-Levitt pairing, the video is extremely cute, a little campy and sometimes sexy. Gordon-Levitt plays a bank robber who has a connection with the pretty teller who's handing him the money. Undeniably drawn to one another, the two swing and swirl and trot their way around the bank in their own private reverie.

It's so cute it practically makes my teeth ache. But, you know, in a good way. The video automatically starts after the jump. To watch and "awww!" just

Earlier, I gave you the details on Jennifer Aniston's favorite gloss, straight from her makeup artist, Jorjee Douglass, who worked with the star on The Baster earlier this year. "I've been blessed to work with such amazing, smart, and beautiful leading ladies," said Jorjee, whose impressive list of celebrities also includes Jennifer Connelly, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Zooey Deschanel.
