Don Jon (2013 Joseph Gordon-Levitt & scr)

A risky debut for JGL, playing a porn addicted wiseguy who falls for Scarlett Johanssen (good) but finds a proper relationship with Julianne Moore in somewhat unlikely turn of events. Another depressing slice of modern Americana.

Good scenes with family Tony Danza, Glenne Headley and Brie Larson (the one moment when she opens her mouth is classic - that's what sisters are for!) and wry digs at Catholic Church ("How do you come up with these numbers?").
