Joseph G-L and Willis' bonding time

Joseph Gordon-Levitt said he learned a lot from hanging out with Bruce Willis
Joseph Gordon-Levitt has revealed how much he enjoyed hanging out with Bruce Willis to get to know him for their new film Looper.
The pair play two versions of the same character in the sci-fi thriller from Brick director Rian Johnson, about a hitman hired to kill targets sent back in time in order to erase their future. Things go wrong when he is hired to kill himself.
Joseph revealed at a press conference at the Toronto Film Festival: "I studied his movies, and I would take the audio from some of his movies and put them on my iPod. And Bruce actually recorded himself doing some of my monologues and sent me the tape so I could listen to that.
"And that was all really useful, but I think the most important thing for me was just getting to know him, hanging out, having dinner, talking to him. That was where I really learned what I wanted to do with the character."
Bruce revealed how impressed he had been with Joseph's efforts to be like him.
He said: "It seems like an impossible task to try to act with someone who is supposed to be you, supposed to be the younger you, and at some point you've got to let go of it and just believe that you're in the story, that we're part of the story.
"Science fiction films especially are like magic tricks and it kind of fools you. And when I saw the film I was so surprised that the magic trick we were trying to do works."

Rush trailer

Rush trailerVideo by:Description: Two-time Academy Award® winner Ron Howard (A Beautiful Mind, Frost/Nixon), teams once again with fellow two-time Academy Award® nominee, writer Peter Morgan (Frost/Nixon, The Queen), on Rush, a spectacular big-screen re-creation of the merciless 1970s rivalry between James Hunt and Niki Lauda. In UK cinemas on Sept 13th. The epic action-drama stars Chris Hemsworth (The Avengers) as the charismatic Englishman James Hunt and Daniel Brühl (Inglourious Basterds) as the disciplined Austrian perfectionist Niki Lauda, whose clashes on the Grand Prix racetrack epitomized the contrast between these two extraordinary characters, a distinction reflected in their private lives. Set against the sexy and glamorous golden age of Formula 1 racing, Rush portrays the exhilarating true story of two of the greatest rivals the world has ever witnessed—handsome English playboy Hunt and his methodical, brilliant opponent, Lauda. Taking us into their personal lives on and off the track, Rush follows the two drivers as they push themselves to the breaking point of physical and psychological endurance, where there is no shortcut to victory and no margin for error. If you make one mistake, you die.Rating: 4Views: 183018
