Still Undecided? Maybe Joseph Gordon-Levitt Can Help!

Not only is Joseph Gordon-Levitt a gifted young actor, he’s also a budding filmmaker in his own right: Perhaps you recall his fine work in Pictures of Assholes, a short documentary in which he attempted to delve into the unknowable psyche of the paparazzi. His latest project, currently screening in YouTube-directed browsers everywhere, is a political memoir, tracing his roots back to his years as an impressionable young MTV watcher, through the last eight rancorous years, to his present-day love affair with a man from Honolulu. Say what you will about this Obama rhapsody: it’s a gritty affair, more likely to feature repeated shots of a cow relieving itself than the flossy celebrity dance-offs favoured by some of his peers. The choice is yours.
