Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Sid and Nancy

The wonderful Zooey Deschanel and the perfectly acceptable Joseph Gordon-Levitt have a new movie out called 500 Days of Summer. I haven’t seen it, but I hear that despite them, it’s not very good. Oh dear.

But in the movie, there’s a scene where the two young lovers compare their relationship to Sid and Nancy’s. Here it is:

Cinemash is doing a new project in which various actors re-enact scenes from famous movies. So it’s appropriate that they start off with our Zooey and Joseph Gordon-Levitt re-enacting a scene from Sid and Nancy. Unfortunately, you can’t embed the vids (easily), so you’ll just have to go to Cinemash to watch it.

Also coming up: Cheech and Chong do Tron (seriously), Milo Ventimiglia from Heroes doing Oldboy and Will Arnett and Xavier from Adult Swim do Carrie. Should be interesting.
