Astounding Similarities

There's been been a lot of talk as of late, through the grapevine, about Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and the type of actor he is. Inception has finally revealed him to the world in a big way, so now the critics and bloggers and people on ET have started to rave about him as if they have been following him for his whole career. One thing that has been coming up a lot has been the comparison between Jo-Go, and the late, great, Heath Ledger. Looking over each actor's resume, that is actually a comparison founded in strong evidence. So, is Joseph Gordon-Levitt the next Heath Ledger? I'll give you a few reasons why I think he could be.

It's absolutely uncanny!

This Advice Is Free, I Give, and Honest

Day 3 of my JGL extravaganza focuses on a film of a different nature then what he has been churning out as of late.

So, I don't know if you've heard, but there was this guy named Shakespeare. Kind of a big deal back in his day. Wrote a few plays; they were very well received; you know how it is. Anyway, the guy's legacy is pretty far reaching. You'll be hard pressed to walk into a video store and not find a film version of one of his plays or a reimagining of them. In 1999 we got, not necessarily the most original adaptation of a Shakespeare, but, for my money, one of the best. Very well written, and smartly acted, 10 Things I Hate About You is a funny, sweet film that, while not a masterpiece, is still worth your time.

YOU!!
